Microsoft shares mitigation for YellowKey Windows zero-day

Microsoft has addressed the YellowKey vulnerability, a zero-day flaw in Windows BitLocker identified as CVE-2026-45585. This vulnerability allows unauthorized access to BitLocker-protected drives through a specific exploitation process involving 'FsTx' files. The flaw was disclosed by an anonymous researcher known as 'Nightmare Eclipse.' Microsoft has released mitigation strategies, including removing the autofstx.exe entry from the Session Manager's BootExecute REGMULTISZ value and reestablishing BitLocker trust for WinRE. Additionally, users are advised to change BitLocker settings from "TPM-only" to "TPM+PIN" mode, requiring a pre-boot PIN for drive decryption, and to enable "Require additional authentication at startup" for unencrypted devices.

Android 16 Bug Allows Apps to Ignore VPNs and Leak IP Addresses

Android 16 may have a vulnerability that allows applications to bypass VPN protections, potentially exposing users' IP addresses. A security engineer reported this issue through Google’s Vulnerability Reward Program, but Google's security team deemed it "infeasible" to address. The vulnerability lies within the ConnectivityManager system service, which circumvents the VPN tunnel, leading to unencrypted traffic and exposure of sensitive information. This issue persists even with "Always-on VPN" or "Block connections without VPN" features enabled. Although there is no confirmed exploitation of this vulnerability, it poses ongoing risks for users. GrapheneOS has patched the issue, indicating a fix is possible. A debug command has been identified as a temporary workaround for affected users, but it requires caution and understanding of USB debugging mode.
