A bug in GoBalance, a tool many dark-web sites use to stay reachable during attacks, lets anyone work out the secret key that controls a site's .onion address using only public information, and then take that address over.

Searchlight Cyber, which disclosed the flaw on October 8, says an attacker who recovers the key can redirect the site's visitors to a copy of the site they control.

Three research teams broke into Google's Pixel 10 on October 8 at Pwn2Own Ireland, a hacking contest in Cork whose rules require every target to be fully patched. The contest pays researchers to show working exploits and passes the flaws to the vendors. One of the three Pixel exploits earned Ikotas Labs $300,000, the contest's top prize, and made the team the overall winner.
