It's a packed week on Technado! First up in Rapid Fire, we talk about the Linux backdoor that's got everyone fired up - but all is not as it seems. Then, our Pork Chop Sandwiches segment stars Hot Topic in their latest credential stuffing dilemma (and a brief cybergoth appearance thanks to Christian). Activision is looking into some password-stealing malware affecting some of its players (read: cheaters).
We wrap up Rapid Fire by discussing the recent MFA bombing attacks plaguing iPhone users, along with a special Deja News double feature: we have updates on the PyPI and AT&T situations!
After a quick break, it's time for our deep dive! Daniel gets into the details of the new and improved (?) Android malware Vultur. Finally, we finish up this week's episode with a mini-dive into Imperva Secure Sphere's WAF bypass.
