A massive vulnerability (CVE-2025-29927) was just found in Next.js, a popular framework for building web apps with React. This flaw, rated 9.1/10 for severity, lets attackers slip past security checks using a simple trick—a special header. It affects self-hosted Next.js apps (versions 11.1.4 to 15.2.2) that use middleware to protect pages, like admin dashboards. If unpatched, hackers could access restricted areas—yikes!
How Big Is It?
Pretty darn big! Millions of developers use Next.js, and this bug leaves tons of apps exposed. The good news? It’s fixed in version 15.2.3 and up. Please upgrade to newest version to stay safe!

What is Telegram?
Telegram’s stand out feature is its encryption scheme that keeps messages and media secure in transit. The scheme is known as MTProto and is based on 256-bit AES encryption, RSA encryption, and Diffie-Hellman key exchange. The result of this complicated and technical-sounding jargon? A messaging service that claims to keep your data safe.Why do we say claims? When dealing with security, you always want to leave room for scrutiny, and a few cryptography experts have criticized the system. Overall, any level of encryption is better than none, but a level of discretion should always be observed with any online connected system, even Telegram.
