Cisco Patches Critical Bootloader Vulnerability Affecting Over 100 Switch Models

A bootloader flaw in Ciscos NXOS software that affects more than 100 switch types has been fixed, enabling attackers to get around image signature verification. This vulnerability results from unsafe bootloader configurations, which allow attackers with administrative privileges or physical access to run bootloader instructions and load unconfirmed software. Devices of all configurations, including Nexus 3000, 7000, 9000 Series Switches, MDS 9000 Series Switches, and UCS 6500 and 6400 Series Fabric Interconnects, are impacted. According to Cisco, there are no workarounds for this problem, and some older models—like the Nexus 92160YCX—will not be fixed because they are no longer supported. Although the organisation has not seen this vulnerability exploited in the wild, it advises installing security fixes as soon as possible. Read More..

With an emphasis on creating AI agents for practical uses, Amazon opened the Amazon AGI SF Lab in San Francisco. The lab will incorporate recently hired Adept AI personnel under the direction of David Luam, the former CEO and cofounder of Adept AI Labs. Developing "practical AI" that can carry out digital and physical activities is part of its objective. The lab will investigate fundamental AI features, including combining reinforcement learning with large language models LLMs for planning, reasoning, and environmental adaptation. This project complements AWSs recently released Nova family of foundational AI models for enterprise clients and intends to recruit AI specialists and professionals from various sectors. Read More..

Microsoft has fixed a worldwide outage that started on Downdetector at 234 PM and peaked internationally at 619 PM, impacting Microsoft 365 services like Teams, OneDrive, and Outlook. Reports peaked in India at 319 PM IST. Because the problem, known as OO953223, interfered with online app access, Microsoft recommended utilising desktop apps as an interim solution. This is the second outage in two weeks, affecting Skype, Teams calendars, and Exchange Online. Microsoft stated there was no enterprise effect after identifying and mitigating the underlying causes in both incidents. Users are urged to monitor changes through the admin centre or service status page for continuous recovery and comprehensive insights. Read More..

The STM32N6 family, STMicroelectronics first microcontrollers built for edge AI and machine learning applications, have been released. By managing local image and audio processing duties, these chips are anticipated to power consumer and industrial devices, eliminating the need for larger computers or data centres. By minimising data transfer to and from central servers, edge AI allows localised processing in devices like automobiles, factories, and wearables, enhancing speed and lowering energy consumption in contrast to generative AI models like ChatGPT, which rely on massive data centre resources. This development demonstrates the companys emphasis on incorporating AI capabilities into small, energyefficient devices designed for specific ondevice applications. Read More..

Australia’s Central Bank Holds Interest Rates Steady at 4.35%, Signals Confidence in Inflation Control

In a softer stance on inflation, Australias central bank said it has "some confidence" that inflation is returning to target levels, maintaining interest rates at 4.35% during its yearend meeting. The market anticipated a possible rate decrease in February, with full easing expected by April, and the Australian dollar fell 0.8% to $0.6380 as threeyear bond futures increased. Despite the temporary government subsidies that caused headline inflation to decline to 2.8% in the third quarter, core inflation is still stubbornly high at 3.5%. Along with dismal economic growth figures, analysts predict that the RBAs departure from a hawkish stance may trigger a dovish turn and potential rate decreases in early 2024. Read More..

AllianceBernstein Prepares $225 Million Lawsuit Against Switzerland Over Credit Suisse Collapse

AllianceBernstein, a U.S. asset management, is preparing to sue Switzerland for $225 million after UBS acquired Credit Suisse, wiping off $17 billion

AllianceBernstein, a U.S. asset management, is preparing to sue Switzerland for $225 million after UBS acquired Credit Suisse, wiping off $17 billion of the banks debt. AllianceBernstein will be added as a plaintiff in the dispute, which was started by Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan on behalf of bondholders of Credit Suisse. A group of bondholders who owned $82 million in Additional Tier 1 AT1 debt from Credit Suisse also sued Switzerland earlier this year to recover damages. Due to the significant losses sustained, bondholders have strongly reacted negatively to Credit Suisses 2023 bankruptcy and subsequent takeover by UBS in a rescue coordinated by Swiss authorities.
