MITRE Vice President Yosry Barsoum has warned that U.S. government funding for the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) and Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) programs expires today, which could lead to widespread disruption across the global cybersecurity industry.
CVE, the most critical of the two, is maintained by MITRE with funding from the U.S. National Cyber Security Division of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS). CVE is crucial for providing accuracy, clarity, and shared standards when discussing security vulnerabilities.
The program is widely adopted across various cybersecurity tools, including vulnerability management systems, and it allows tracking all newly discovered vulnerabilities using CVE Identifiers (CVE IDs) assigned by CVE Numbering Authorities (CNAs) worldwide, with MITRE as the CVE Editor and Primary CNA.
A new class of magnetism called altermagnetism has been imaged for the first time in a new study. The findings could lead to the development of new magnetic memory devices with the potential to increase operation speeds of up to a thousand times.

For 100 years, quantum theory has painted the subatomic world as strange beyond words. But bold new interpretations and experiments may help us to finally grasp its true meaning
In the realm of general relativity, black holes are well-known for their ability to trap light and matter by bending spacetime, creating a point of no return. While black holes have fascinated scientists and the public alike, another concept, the white hole, has remained more theoretical. A white hole is thought to be the reverse of a black hole, expelling light and matter rather than absorbing them. Now, a team of researchers has designed a novel optical device with intriguing similarities with both these elusive cosmic phenomena.
The device, reported in Advanced Photonics, functions as an optical black hole or optical white hole, and rests on a principle known as “coherent perfect absorption” of light waves. Dependent on polarization, this optical device can either absorb or reject light almost entirely, analogous to the behavior of a gravitational black or white hole in space.
The device works by forming a standing wave from incident light waves, where interactions with an ultrathin absorber lead to perfect absorption or transmission, based on the polarization of the light. In simple terms, it behaves like a cosmic object that either swallows or repels light.
