Odaily Planet Daily reports that Bitcoin News, in an article published on the X platform, stated that Electrum has released version 4.8.2, adding several security fixes and strengthening the security of the Bitcoin wallet codebase. These fixes are based on reports from researchers including the Bitcoin Red Team, Calle, l0rinc, haoxucu, and m0wer. This version addresses a critical backup issue affecting some Lightning wallets using non-deterministic keys and anchored channels. Previously, channel backups and full wallet backups of affected wallets might lack the keys required to transfer funds to the blockchain after a remote forced shutdown request. Affected users will receive a warning upon launching Electrum and should export a new backup, as the old backup cannot correctly recover funds in this scenario. This version also strengthens Lightning HTLC verification, rejects previously acceptable malformed xpub/xprv keys, expands the scope of codebase security enhancements, and prevents Android QR code scanners from reading screenshots. This is the third security-focused release of Electrum since July, following versions 4.8.0 and 4.8.1.

Odaily Planet Daily reports that North Korea is using remote IT personnel from third countries such as Iran and Lebanon to infiltrate US companies to obtain funding for weapons programs. After passing interviews, these individuals typically take over positions held by North Korean personnel. In July, the US government and several foreign agencies issued alerts indicating that North Korean IT personnel seek contracts and remit salaries back to their affiliated North Korean institutions, posing an internal threat to businesses through data breaches, cryptocurrency theft, and the theft of sensitive information. Some third-country IT personnel are recruited through LinkedIn, with some working part-time as "interview assistants" for up to $500 per month in cryptocurrency. Data from cybersecurity company CrowdStrike shows that cryptocurrency losses from North Korean state-linked hackers and threat actors will exceed $2 billion in 2025, a 51% increase year-on-year. The Bank of Korea estimates North Korea's GDP will grow by 3.5% in 2025. (Cointelegraph)
