“Lord of Hatred is the best Diablo 4 has ever been,” Blizzard says

Diablo 4 has faced challenges in maintaining momentum due to competition from titles like Last Epoch and Path of Exile 2, which offer more compelling endgame experiences. The third expansion, Lord of Hatred, aims to shift this narrative by concluding the Mephisto saga and introducing enhancements such as the Talisman and Horadric Cube for player customization. The expansion received an 8/10 rating, which is lower than its predecessor, Vessel of Hatred, due to fewer groundbreaking features. Associate Game Designer Zaven Haroutunian and Associate Director of Game Design Colin Finer stated that they believe Lord of Hatred represents the peak of Diablo 4, describing it as the ultimate expression of the game. The expansion includes streamlined endgame experiences and features like a map overlay and loot filter for better navigation and item highlighting.

‘Unlimited Attack Vectors’—All Windows Versions At Risk From New Flaw

Microsoft is facing a significant security vulnerability in its Windows operating system known as PhantomRPC, which allows for privilege escalation. Cybersecurity experts have expressed concern over the company's delayed response in issuing a patch for this flaw. The vulnerability resides within the Windows Remote Procedure Call (RPC) architecture and enables processes with impersonation privileges to elevate their permissions to SYSTEM level. Researcher Haidar Kabibo identified five distinct paths for exploitation, which require user interaction, coercion, or compromise of background services. Despite disclosing the vulnerability to Microsoft in September 2025, the company categorized it as moderately severe and did not issue a patch or a Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) listing. Microsoft stated that the technique requires an already-compromised machine and emphasized the importance of following security best practices. Experts have criticized Microsoft's lack of action, arguing that it is operationally negligent and places the burden of risk management on users. In the absence of a patch, security professionals recommend focusing on access control and environmental hygiene to mitigate the risks associated with the vulnerability.
