Welcome to the Sans program with Jared Rimer. I hope that everyone will enjoy the program this time.

This episode will be talking about the newsletter from December 16, 2025.

Would you like a link to the newsletter? Why not check out the newsletter for December 16, 2025 and we'll see what it covers.

At the top of the newsletter, they paid a tribute to Dan Kaminsky who was a security researcher and worked tirelessly to make things accessible and found a very serious bug within DNS. He was born in 1979 and died in 2001. The link is to his entry on Wikipedia.

Here is what's going on with the top of the news for this newsletter.

• Apple WebKit and Google Chrome Zero-Days Exploited and Patched
• More React Vulnerabilities
• CISA Adds GeoServer and Sierra Vulnerabilities to KEV

If you've not patched apple, do so. I believe this only applies to 26.x as when I asked the phone, it gave me 26.2 and nothing in the 18 series.

Here's what is in the rest of the week's news for this newsletter.

• MITRE 25 Most Dangerous Vulnerabilities of 2025
• Microsoft is Deprecating RC4 Cipher
• JLR Follow-up: Payroll Data Breached
