Google has apparently encouraged the U.S. government to sever Microsofts exclusive contract to host OpenAIs technology on its cloud servers. This came after the United States Federal Trade Commission FTC enquired about Microsofts business practices. To ensure their cloud clients arent dependent on Microsoft for access, rival tech companies like Google and Amazon are looking to host OpenAIs models. The report claims that customers who use OpenAIs technology through Microsoft may be charged more if they dont use Microsoft servers. Google and its rivals contend that this could have a detrimental effect on customers. Microsoft, OpenAI, and the FTC have not replied to media demands for more information, while Google has declined to comment. Read More..

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..
