Researchers at Huntress uncovered a Microsoft 365 token‑replay campaign that hijacked sign‑in sessions and replayed stolen access tokens to infiltrate 97 accounts across 79 organizations between July 14 and September 22, 2026. The attackers used an adversary‑in‑the‑middle login page to capture credentials and MFA codes, then harvested the resulting tokens and “sprayed” them at scale, achieving 497 successful sign‑ins from over 200,000 attempts traced to the 193.26.115.0/24 subnet. After gaining access, they added rogue authenticator apps and registered 48 fake Entra [...]

A new video demonstrates that the Shortcuts app can run automations when the iPhone Duo is opened or closed. The feature, first spotted in code by developer pdfu last month, now has a public demo by YouTuber Stephen Robles, who uses the “Open” trigger to launch a productivity app automatically. Available triggers include “Opened,” “Closed,” and “Opened or Closed.” Robles confirmed the automation can also lock the device when it folds shut. Viewers suggested playful uses, such as playing the classic [...]

Apple’s retired iTunes desktop app has resurfaced as a niche sales channel for top pop artists. Since the 2019 shutdown, the company split iTunes into separate Music, Podcasts and TV apps, and streaming has dominated. Yet the Financial Times reports a “countermovement” in which musicians such as Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, Charli XCX, Doja Cat, Summer Walker and Tinashe release iTunes‑only tracks or live versions to drive digital purchases. Ariana Grande’s surprise iTunes exclusive of a live “Petal” album lifted the record from [...]

Apple unveiled latest iPad mini, branding it the “biggest update ever.” Tablet features an 8.5‑inch OLED screen with 24 % thinner bezels, 1200‑nit peak brightness, and a 60 Hz refresh rate. At 5.4 mm thick and 255 g, it is slimmer and lighter than prior 6.3 mm, 297 g model, and carries IP67 water‑dust rating. Power comes from A20 Pro processor, which varies slightly between 128 GB/256 GB and 512 GB storage configurations. Apple introduced an “Acoustic Display” that routes sound through panel using hidden woofers and [...]

Apple’s new iPhone Duo is exhibiting a repeatable screen‑cracking pattern that investigators link to a faulty hinge component. Early adopters reported cracks within hours of launch, typically originating at the crease line and spreading horizontally. YouTuber CuriousHagi reproduced the failure by forcing the hinge backward, hearing a snap, and discovering a sheared hinge element that struck the display. iFixit’s teardown, using patents, footage and CT scans, identified stress concentration where a crossing flex cable meets the central [...]

Tesla has added a live rear‑camera feed and a full‑screen quiet mode to its Cybercab service. Passengers can now tap the display to view a strip of rear‑camera video, swipe to hide it, or expand to see other exterior feeds, giving them awareness despite the cab’s lack of mirrors, windows and a driver’s seat. The quiet mode darkens the screen for riders who want to rest or avoid bright light at night. The updates were rolled out [...]

Apple unveiled a major refresh of the iPad mini, equipping it with an A20 Pro processor, OLED screen, thinner chassis, larger display, water‑and dust‑resistance, and upgraded audio. The announcement came ahead of a week‑long product rollout that Apple’s senior vice president of worldwide marketing, Greg “Joz” Joswiak, hinted at on X, describing the week as “exciting” and beginning with the new iPad mini. The company has already scheduled a press event for Wednesday, October 28, under the tagline “Pro and [...]

iFixit’s teardown of Apple’s new iPhone Duo gave the foldable a repairability score of 5 / 10, the highest ever for the category but still lower than the iPhone 18 Pro’s 7 / 10. The device’s top‑layer screen can be swapped for $19, its two batteries are removable with minimal effort, and the inner‑display trim lifts off intact—advantages not seen on earlier Samsung or Google foldables. A flat motherboard also reduces the number of parts that must be removed to reach a faulty [...]
