n8n's token-exchange flow allowed cross-issuer account takeover by ignoring JWT issuer claims during identity mapping, enabling tokens from different trusted issuers with matching 'sub' claims to access the same account. The fix, released in v2.28.1 and v2.27.4, now ties identities to both issuer and sub claims.

Show HN: Grepathy – Claude made a decision nobody approved

NAT Slipstreaming exploits browsers and NAT ALG mechanisms to bypass firewalls, enabling remote access to internal services by manipulating TCP/UDP packets via techniques like WebRTC, IP fragmentation, and protocol abuse. Developed in versions v1 and v2, it leverages SIP/H.323 protocols to create unauthorized port forwarding, exposing protected networks without requiring malware.

Show HN: Aict – Unix coreutils that output XML/JSON, built for AI agents

A c64 game of pong has 'random elements' that make the balls bounce. these elements are thrown in at the point where the ball hits the blockfield - and they reverse sides if it hits one of the sides that causes the bouncing to occur... but they don't bounce off the boundary of that boundary! we need to limit the calculations needed for this animation so they're completed within the blanking
