Another one -https://www.wordfence.com/blog/2021/02/severe-vulnerabilities-patched-in-nextgen-gallery-affect-over-800000-wordpress-sites/

Often plug-in code with Word Press php-based CMS is found to be not fully updated, patched, also often left (by developers).
New versions here were only installed by 27% of affected websites.

Yandex suffers data breach after sysadmin sold access to user emails
https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/yandex-suffers-data-breach-after-sysadmin-sold-access-to-user-emails/
https://yandex.com/company/press_center/press_releases/2021/2021-12-02

It amazes me that someone in that position would risk it all for some money, or stupid enough to think they could get away with it, potentially life ruined.

Yandex reminds me of Spandex, someone or something always seems to be pulling their strings and not in a good way.
Let's hope they bounce back.

I hope that gets the message across. Delivering that same message as a human seemed to have no effect. :)

Staying away from the Dark Web would also solve the problem. :)

1Password has none, KeePass has none... So why are there seven embedded trackers in the LastPass Android app?
