Payment details and passwords weren't part of it, but that's still plenty for a convincing phishing message, so members should treat unexpected contacts with suspicion.
speaker_0HOST
F5 has fixed eleven security issues in NGINX, including three critical flaws in both NGINX Plus and NGINX Open Source.
speaker_0HOST
Two can be triggered by an unauthenticated attacker sending crafted web requests to certain configurations, crashing the server, and potentially running code if memory protections are disabled or bypassed.
speaker_0HOST
If NGINX sits in front of your services, patch now.
Dave BittnerHOST
A cyber incident disrupts US bankruptcy courts.
Dave BittnerHOST

Dave BittnerHOST

Dave BittnerHOST
BAE says the incident is isolated to the noticing system.
Dave BittnerHOST
The cause, potential data exposure, and timeline for restoring services remain unknown.
Dave BittnerHOST
F5 and Juniper Networks have released patches addressing more than one hundred and sixty security vulnerabilities, including dozens of critical flaws.
Dave BittnerHOST
F5 fixed eleven vulnerabilities in NGINX, including three critical issues that could enable unauthenticated remote code execution under certain conditions.
David ShipleyHOST
Palo Alto joins a crowded month for edge devices.
David ShipleyHOST
Citrix, F5, SonicWall, and Cisco have all patched exploited zero days recently.
David ShipleyHOST
Three weeks ago, we covered admins shutting down NetScaler appliances entirely ahead of a fix.
David ShipleyHOST
And that sigh of relief you may have heard, that's probably Fortinet executives realizing this story isn't about them.
James AzarHOST
You wanna verify your deployment version against the patch advisory and apply those through your standard patching pipeline.
James AzarHOST
Um, F5 disclosing this again.
James AzarHOST
Several flaws, um, with some significant CVSS scores like eight point one, niner point two.
James AzarHOST
Those are CVEs twenty twenty-six niner seven two oh five, niner three four seven niner, and one five one seven six.
WyattHOST
And Zscaler is a leader in what they refer to as zero trust security, though in the past when we compared them to CrowdStrike, we found the latter to be more favorable, more attractive.
WyattHOST
And if we look further down this list of top cybersecurity companies, F5 is not a pure play cybersecurity company.
WyattHOST
Only thirty-nine percent of their revenues come from security.
WyattHOST
So if you wanted to build your own mini ETF, you could go with these five pure play names, Palo Alto Networks, CrowdStrike, Fortinet, Okta, and Zscaler.
AmitHOST
They already hired Amit Friedman as their director of engineering in Israel.
AmitHOST
He previously held tech roles at Mobileye, Opsys, and F5 Networks.
YuvalHOST
While keeping exact expansion plans for Tel Aviv quiet, they actively list Israel as a location.
YuvalHOST
Unlike NVIDIA, Positron is not trying to compete in the model training market, which requires massive and expensive computing power.
Herman PoppleberryHOST
And Frenginx.
CornHOST
Frenginx, the fork started in February 2024 by Maxim Downin after F5 took over NGINX, kept its mailing list support.
CornHOST
One more reason to look into the fork as people were saying.
Herman PoppleberryHOST
And the detail I love is where Downin's fork announcement was sent from.
CornHOST
That's the design position.
Herman PoppleberryHOST
And the reason it stays around, I think, is that when you've got nothing to sell, you've got nothing to hide.
CornHOST
Which is why the Frenginx fork kept it and F5 didn't.
Herman PoppleberryHOST
Now hold on because let me go back to the newcomer thing for a second.
Jessica EttingerHOST
Major averages all in the green for the week.
Jessica EttingerHOST
On Friday, companies whose shares hit fresh all-time highs include oil names Marathon Petroleum and Valero, plus Visa, Datadog, F5 Networks, and Palantir.
Jessica EttingerHOST
President Trump, desperate to bring down diesel fuel costs in the US ahead of the midterm elections, reached a deal with President Vladimir Putin of Russia to supply Russian diesel to the US and global markets.
Eamon JaversCORRESPONDENT
The president's decision did prompt a sharp response from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who wrote on social media, in part, "It plays into Russia's hands, allowing it to kill more, wage war for longer, have even less respect for America, and inflict even greater losses and damage on the world."
Paul SedorianHOST
The protections just don't exist.
Paul SedorianHOST
And what I observed in both the Citrix Netscaler and F5 Big IP...
Paul SedorianHOST
In both those cases, there were some protections, right? Binary had some compiler flags that implemented some of the memory safety tricks in the compiler.
Paul SedorianHOST
The systems themselves had some level of protection, but not all of the protections were.
Paul SedorianHOST
So, therefore, it's not going to work.
Paul SedorianHOST
And if you read the Watchtower Labs Go to Watchtower Labs.
Paul SedorianHOST
I think they wrote up both, how to construct the exploit for F5 and NetScaler.
Paul SedorianHOST
And it was very well done.
Jessica EttingerHOST
That's more than a half percent.
Jessica EttingerHOST
Companies whose shares have hit fresh all-time highs today include Thermo Fisher Scientific, Johnson Controls, CrowdStrike, F5 Networks, Fortinet, Palo Alto Networks, AMD, and NVIDIA.
Mike SantoliSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
The Nasdaq 100 has been ripping the equal weighted S&P 500 underwater and it's netted out to a S&P 500.
Mike SantoliSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
That's protected you if you're an index investor as the rest of the market registered the higher yields and higher oil prices where it mattered.
