We've released #security updates for #Hollo (0.4.12, 0.5.7, and 0.6.6) to address a #vulnerability in the underlying #Fedify framework. These updates incorporate the latest Fedify security patches that fix CVE-2025-54888.

We strongly recommend all Hollo instance administrators update to the latest version for their respective release branch as soon as possible.

Update Instructions:

• Railway users: Go to your project dashboard, select your Hollo service, click the three dots menu in deployments, and choose “Redeploy”
• Docker users: Pull the latest image with docker pull ghcr.io/fedify-dev/hollo:latest and restart your containers
• Manual installations: Run git pull to get the latest code, then pnpm install and restart your service

All #Fedify users must immediately update to the latest patched versions. A #critical authentication bypass #vulnerability (CVE-2025-54888) has been discovered in Fedify that allows attackers to impersonate any #ActivityPub actor by sending forged activities signed with their own keys.

This vulnerability affects all Fedify instances and enables complete actor impersonation across the federation network. Attackers can send fake posts and messages as any user, create or remove follows as any user, boost and share content as any user, and completely compromise the federation trust model. The vulnerability affects all Fedify instances but does not propagate to other ActivityPub implementations like Mastodon, which properly validate authentication before processing activities.

The following versions contain the #security fix: 1.3.20, 1.4.13, 1.5.5, 1.6.8, 1.7.9, and 1.8.5. Users should update immediately using their package manager with commands such as npm update @fedify/fedify, yarn upgrade @fedify/fedify, pnpm update @fedify/fedify, bun update @fedify/fedify, or deno update @fedify/fedify.

After updating, redeploy your application immediately and monitor recent activities for any suspicious content. Please also inform other Fedify operators about this critical update to ensure the security of the entire federation network.

The safety and security of our community depends on immediate action. Please update now and feel free to leave comments below if you have any questions.

Found critical vulns in Lovense (the biggest sex toy company) affecting 11M+ users. They ignored researchers for 2+ years, then fixed in 2 days after public exposure. 🤦

What I found:
- Email disclosure via XMPP (username→email)
- Auth bypass (email→account takeover, no password)

History of ignoring researchers:
- 2022: Someone else reports XMPP email leak, ignored
- Sept 2023: Krissy reports account takeover + different email leak via HTTP API, paid only $350
- 2024: Another person reports XMPP email leak AND Account Takeover vuln, offered 2 free sex toys (accepted for the meme)
- March 2025: I report account takeover + XMPP email leak, paid $3000 (after pushing for critical)
- Told me fix for email vuln needs 14 months because "legacy support" > user security (had 1-month fix ready)
- July 28: I go public
- July 30: Both fixed in 48 hours

Same bugs, different treatment. They lied to journalists saying it was fixed in June, tried to get me banned from HackerOne after giving permission to disclose.

News covered it but my blog has the full technical details:

Edit: If you have Twitter Please retweet this. This guy was one of the CO Founders of Lovense and got kicked out like how Mark Zuckerburg from Facebook did to one of his Co-Founders
