Microsoft RDP apparently lets you log in with expired passwords – and it apparently doesn’t have plans to fix the issue

Security researcher Daniel Wade has revealed that Microsoft’s Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) allows users to log into systems using previously revoked passwords, raising concerns about user security. Wade highlights that this feature undermines the trust users place in password management, as changing passwords is expected to prevent unauthorized access. This issue affects a wide range of users, from individuals to employees in small businesses and hybrid work environments. Despite the increasing sophistication of cyberattacks on password managers, Microsoft has stated it will not change this RDP functionality.

RuTracker разблокировали? Популярный торрент-трекер снова доступен в России

On September 18, 2024, RuTracker became accessible to users in Russia, as its address was removed from the Roskomnadzor registry of blocked websites. The website is no longer listed in the unified registry of blocked resources, and users can access it without using VPNs or other circumvention tools. RuTracker had been blocked in Russia since November 9, 2015, due to copyright infringements. Prior to this change, there were rumors and brief instances of access in March 2022, but those were clarified as technical glitches. The reasons for the renewed accessibility remain unclear, with no official statements from RuTracker's administration or Roskomnadzor.
