Time Capsule survives macOS 27, but Apple really should make a new one

While macOS 27 introduces lots of new features, it does have a few drawbacks. One of these appeared to be that it bricked Time Capsules. A Microsoft engineer has found a way to maintain compatibility, but it really just…

Now that I've dug my hands deep into the Mastodon core, it looks like it's definitely possible to get the original home instance counts for federated posts, not just your own server's local tally.

For boosts and favourites, recent versions of Mastodon already fetch the origin's reported totals when retrieving a post and store them as "untrusted counts" (untrusted because the remote server self-reports them). So a remote post carries the home server's actual numbers.

Replies are trickier, as they only federate to subscribed servers, so the local count tends to lag. However, you can fetch the full reply tree from the origin on demand.

I'm basing our algorithmic home feed exactly on that: boosts and favourites from the origin counts, and comments from a backfilled reply tree.

Security Advisory: CVE-2025-60467 - Use-After-Free in GPAC MP4Box Filter PID Cleanup

A use-after-free vulnerability exists in GPAC MP4Box when processing a crafted MPEG-2 TS/MP4 file. The issue is triggered during filter teardown in `gf_filter_pid_inst_swap_delete_task()` and can cause MP4Box to crash.

Summary:
AddressSanitizer confirms a heap-use-after-free in `filter_core/filter_pid.c:580`, where code reads from a PID instance object after it has already been freed during swap/delete cleanup.
The crafted file contains malformed MPEG-2 TS structures, including broken PMT descriptors and invalid PID metadata. While MP4Box processes the file with `-info`, the filter core performs PID instance cleanup. During this cleanup path, a PID instance is freed and later accessed again by `gf_filter_pid_inst_swap_delete_task()`.

CWE:
CWE-416 - Use After Free

Affected Component:
```
filter_core/filter_pid.c:580
Function: gf_filter_pid_inst_swap_delete_task()
```

Affected Product:
MP4Box (GPAC Multimedia Open Source Project)

Affected Version:
```
2.5-DEV-rev1593-gfe88c3545-master
Commit: fe88c3545aadd597b250ccf23271d5d3de50ccc8
```

Attack Conditions:
An attacker supplies a crafted input file that is processed by MP4Box. The issue can be reproduced locally with:
```
./MP4Box -info 39_gf_filter_pid_inst_swap_delete_task_filter_core_filter_pid_c_580
```

The prepared CVSS vector:
```
CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
```

Impact:
denial of service via application crash; local triage notes also identify potential arbitrary code execution risk

Fix / mitigation status:
Users should update to a fixed GPAC release or apply the vendor-confirmed patch. Verify the final vendor fix commit before public release if the advisory is published independently.

Security Advisory: CVE-2025-60473 - NULL Pointer Dereference in GPAC MP4Box Filter Parent Chain

Processing a crafted media file with MP4Box `-info` can trigger a NULL pointer dereference in `gf_filter_in_parent_chain()`, causing a Denial of Service.

Summary:
The `gf_filter_in_parent_chain()` function in `filter_core/filter_pid.c` does not sufficiently validate a parent filter pointer before dereferencing it. When MP4Box processes a specially crafted media file with malformed MPEG-2 TS data and a corrupted PID/filter chain, the vulnerable path can attempt to read from address `0x000000000008` (`NULL + 8`).

CWE:
CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

Affected Component:
```
filter_core/filter_pid.c:2145
Function: gf_filter_in_parent_chain()
```

Affected Product:
MP4Box (GPAC Multimedia Open Source Project)

Affected Version:
The issue was reproduced on:
```
GPAC version: 2.5-DEV-rev1570-g6208015df-master
Commit: 6208015dff3a6735a26e413c484c714666eb3ea2
```

The MITRE response states that GPAC Project/MP4Box before `26.02.0` is affected. Builds before the fix commit `b8d80b44718de10b101e1d7fc17c84d69feb092e` should be considered affected if they contain the vulnerable filter parent-chain validation path.

Attack Conditions:
An attacker supplies a crafted media file with malformed MPEG-2 TS packet data and a corrupted PID/filter chain. The issue can be reproduced locally with:
```
./MP4Box -info 36_gf_filter_in_parent_chain_filter_core_filter_pid_c_2145
```

No elevated privileges are required. User interaction is required when the victim manually processes the malicious file, or an automated media workflow invokes MP4Box on attacker-controlled input.

The prepared CVSS vector:
```
AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N
```

Impact:
The immediate observed impact is Denial of Service due to process termination. The local MITRE/BDU data also notes potential arbitrary code execution, although the available ASAN evidence shows a NULL pointer dereference crash.

Fix / mitigation status:
The issue was fixed in GPAC commit:
```
b8d80b44718de10b101e1d7fc17c84d69feb092e
```

Users should update to a GPAC build containing this commit or later. The affected filter graph code should validate parent filter pointers before dereferencing them during PID initialization.
