Notepad++ v8.8.9 release: Vulnerability-fix
Some security experts recently reported incidents of traffic hijacking affecting Notepad++. According to the investigation, traffic from WinGUp (the Notepad++ updater) was occasionally redirected to malicious servers, resulting in the download of compromised executables.
The review of the reports led to identification of a weakness in the way the updater validates the integrity and authenticity of the downloaded update file. In case an attacker is able to intercept the network traffic between the updater client and the Notepad++ update infrastructure, this weakness can be leveraged by an attacker to prompt the updater to download and executed an unwanted binary (instead of the legitimate Notepad++ update binary). To mitigate this weakness and address the hijacking’s concerns raised by the security researchers, a new security enhancement is being introduced in this release of Notepad++.
The popular open-source SmartTube YouTube client for Android TV was compromised after an attacker gained access to the developer's signing keys, leading to a malicious update being pushed to users.
The compromise became known when multiple users reported that Play Protect, Android's built-in antivirus module, blocked SmartTube on their devices and warned them of a risk.
The developer of SmartTube, Yuriy Yuliskov, admitted that his digital keys were compromised late last week, leading to the injection of malware into the app.
Yuliskov revoked the old signature and said he would soon publish a new version with a separate app ID, urging users to move to that one instead.
