KeePassXC 2.8 Password Manager Released with Qt 6, Wayland Support

KeePassXC 2.8 arrives with Qt 6, Wayland Auto-Type support, Linux Quick Unlock, remote database syncing, and important security fixes.

KeePassXC, the popular open-source, cross-platform password manager, has released version 2.8, the first stable release in the new series, about a month after the initial beta. It is a substantial update, especially for Linux users, with new features, security improvements, and numerous bug fixes. As covered when the beta arrived, one of the biggest changes is the migration from Qt 5 to Qt 6. Linux users also gain long-awaited Auto-Type support on Wayland through XDG Desktop Portals and a new Quick Unlock feature using Polkit. Another useful addition is remote database synchronization and impo Image:

The PHP project has published PHP versions 8.5.12, 8.4.27, 8.3.36 and 8.2.35 to address two critical vulnerabilities that could allow unauthenticated remote code execution. Who is at risk: all PHP installations serving web requests, including PHP-FPM, Apache with mod_php, php-cgi, FrankenPHP and LiteSpeed. We consider the risk highest for mod_php, with a demonstrated exploit where an unauthenticated request can trigger the attack before any application code runs. The vulnerabilities: RCE via OOM corruption, CVE-2026-109618 (GHSA-w8hw-w9fx-j79w): out-of-memory handling can interrupt PHP while i

LiberNT: New ReactOS Fork Aims for Windows 11 Compatibility

LiberNT is a new ReactOS fork targeting Windows 11 compatibility, with ARM64 support, modern hardware drivers, and experimental builds.

The LiberNT project is working on an alternative implementation of the Windows NT architecture, using Windows 11 version 24H2 as its compatibility reference. Unlike Linux distributions, LiberNT does not use the Linux kernel. It builds on the ReactOS codebase while replacing and extending several core components. One of the project’s main priorities is ARM64 support, particularly for single-board computers and embedded devices. LiberNT also supports x86-64 and 32-bit x86, while RISC-V 64-bit and PowerPC ports are under development. According to the developers, the implementation follows a cle Image:
