# x/crisis does not charge ConstantFee ### Impact If a transaction is sent to the `x/crisis` module to check an invariant, the ConstantFee parameter of the chain is NOT charged. All versions of the `x/crisis` module are affected on all versions of the Cosmos SDK. ### Details The `x/crisis` module is supposed to allow anyone to halt a chain in the event of a violated invariant by sending a `MsgVerifyInvariant` with the name of the invariant. Processing this message takes extra processing power hence a `ConstantFee` was introduced on the chain that is charged as extra from the reporter for the extra computational work. This is supposed to avert spammers on the chain making nodes do extra computations using this transaction. By not charging the `ConstantFee`, the transactions related to invariant checking are relatively cheaper compared to the computational need and other transactions. That said, the submitter still has to pay the transaction fee to put the transaction on the network, h...
The number of malware samples is up as attackers aim to compromise users where they work and play: Their smartphones.
A potential Time-of-Check to Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) vulnerability has been identified in certain HP PC products using AMI UEFI Firmware (system BIOS), which might allow arbitrary code execution. AMI has released updates to mitigate the potential vulnerability.
Plus: Microsoft fixes 78 vulnerabilities, VMWare plugs a flaw already used in attacks, and more critical updates from June.
"NewsPicks" App for Android versions 10.4.5 and earlier and "NewsPicks" App for iOS versions 10.4.2 and earlier use hard-coded credentials, which may allow a local attacker to analyze data in the app and to obtain API key for an external service.
