Android Auto Users Get New Phones, End Up Losing Major Google Maps Update

Users of the Google Pixel 11 have reported a glitch that results in the loss of access to a significant update for Google Maps, which includes immersive navigation features such as advanced 3D maps and contextual information. This issue arises because the rollout of the immersive navigation feature is managed through a server-side flag based on device ID, causing the Pixel 11 to re-enter the queue for the update rather than receiving it immediately. Google has not yet issued a fix for this problem, and the immersive update for Google Maps is currently being rolled out in stages across the United States.

‘This one just needs a script’: Researchers find ultimate Windows kill switch which can disable antivirus w…

Researchers from the University of Birmingham and Durham University discovered a vulnerability in consumer DDR4 and DDR5 memory chips, termed "Download more RAM," which allows attackers to misreport memory configuration, potentially doubling the perceived RAM. This manipulation enables unauthorized access to memory allocations, bypassing Windows' Virtualization-based Security (VBS) and Hypervisor-Enforced Code Integrity (HVCI), and disabling antivirus software. The vulnerability affects major manufacturers like Corsair, G.Skill, and ADATA, which collectively hold over 55% of the high-performance memory market. Microsoft has patched the vulnerability, cataloged as CVE-2026-23670, with a medium severity score of 5.7/10, in the April 2026 Patch Tuesday update. Corsair has introduced a feature to enable write protection on their memory modules, and other tools are available for additional protection.
