Alliance for the Future, unveiled at Montreal summit and open to other countries, conceived for world ‘shaken by new storms’

Canada and Europe have announced a new alliance of like-minded nations to serve as both a “protective canopy under which our citizens can thrive” and a powerful hedge against the unpredictable nature of geopolitics, while welcoming other countries to join.

Speaking to reporters on Friday from Montreal, the prime minister, Mark Carney, and the European Commission president, Ursula von der Leyen, called the new partnership the Alliance for the Future and said the “deepest possible partnership between Canada and the 27-member bloc had the potential to offer unprecedented stability and opportunity”.

Big tech stocks falter as investors question whether billions being poured into AI can generate returns quickly enough

A sell-off of tech stocks that began earlier this month and gained steam with disappointing earnings from leading tech companies drove US markets down by hundreds of billions of dollars Friday. In total, the decline has knocked nearly $1tn in value off the tech-heavy Nasdaq exchange in one week and erased about $2tn in a month.

The S&P 500, the index of the 500 most valuable companies in the US, fell by more than 1% Friday, losing hundreds of billions of dollars in market value. It was on track to erase its gain for October, even though it set its all-time high during the same month. The weakness for technology stocks dragged the Nasdaq composite down even further, more than 3%, also erasing hundreds of billions in value. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell less.

Miami-Dade officials drop charge of battery by strangulation against rapper due to ‘insufficient evidence’

Florida prosecutors on Thursday dropped a felony charge against rapper Rick Ross nearly a month after he was arrested in Miami Beach when a woman he was living with told police he hit her, court records said.

The Miami-Dade state attorney’s office filed paperwork on Thursday to drop a felony charge of battery by strangulation because of “insufficient evidence”. Ross, whose legal name is William Roberts II, still faces a misdemeanor charge of battery domestic violence.

Two of four men on trial say they met couple via online ads and swinging website and had no idea wife had been drugged

Men accused of sexually assaulting a woman whose then husband drugged her for years and allowed her to be abused have described being invited to the couple’s home via online adverts and a swinging website.

One of those accused of assaulting Joanne Young, who has waived her legal right to anonymity, as she lay restrained and blindfolded said he was a young man “trying out things” and had no idea she was drugged.

In closing speech, prosecutor says six women had ‘bravely’ come forward after realising they were not alone

Six women who have been “haunted” by their encounters with Russell Brand came forward to give evidence against him with nothing to gain and no appetite for fame, a court has heard.

The prosecutor, Riel Karmy-Jones KC, said the women, who do not know one another, had not been compelled to make police complaints by the “magic force” of media reporting on Brand’s alleged misconduct.

More than 100,000 species are traded globally, whether illegally smuggled, sold as ornaments or in fisheries, timber and fashion industries, study finds

The number of plant and animal species in use or sold in the wildlife trade is more than twice as high as previously thought, researchers have discovered.

A study, published in Science Advances, warns that there are huge gaps in global assessments of how wildlife is traded, and that past estimates have failed to keep up with changes such as the boom in the online exotic pet trade, where sellers offering to post spider eggs across the world or sneak reptiles on to planes are just a click away.

John Swinney and Rhun ap Iorwerth say devolving power further is up to Holyrood and Senedd – not Westminster

Scotland and Wales’s first ministers have told Andy Burnham that decisions on local devolution rest solely with their parliaments, in response to the prime minister’s push to extend English-style regional powers across the UK.

After Burnham held discussions in Glasgow with John Swinney and Rhun ap Iorwerth about localised employment and reindustrialisation powers, Downing Street characterised the talks as constructive.

Richard Dawkins’ first work has thrilled fans and frustrated critics for five decades. The science has moved on, but any writer looking to supplant its place must learn its lessons

Richard Dawkins’ The Selfish Gene was not predicted to be a success. Its initial print run, published this week in 1976, was just 5,000. It went on to sell millions, and is perhaps the most influential work of pop-science ever. For 50 years, it has been the go-to resource for the layperson seeking to understand evolution.

What accounts for its enduring power? Prof Dawkins’ central claim, that “we are survival machines – robot vehicles blindly programmed to preserve the selfish molecules known as genes” was provocative, stripping the messy stuff of human and other life down to a simple law. And yet the book is primarily concerned with proving that complex, selfless behaviour such as altruism in animals can emerge from these basic “selfish” drives, satisfyingly resolving an apparent paradox. Prof Dawkins – a zoologist by training – also succeeded in conjuring entertaining, vividly drawn vignettes of the lives of animals, from lions and ants to hawks and honeybees, to make his points.

Summary

• The private keys of eight eMudhra intermediate certificates were compromised. A network attacker could use them to impersonate websites and services that JetBrains tools connect to.
• JetBrains IDEs, the Toolbox App, Gateway, and ReSharper are affected because they use the trust store of the bundled JetBrains Runtime (JBR). For IDEs, the embedded browser (JCEF) is also affected. Operating system updates don’t protect against this issue. 
• The Toolbox App and JetBrains IDEs use a background service, jetbrainsd. It has its own built-in list of trusted certificates and is fixed separately, in jetbrainsd 0.9.9728.
• At the time of publishing, we are not aware of any exploitation of this issue against JetBrains users.

Available fixed versions

The issue is fixed in the following versions:

• IntelliJ IDEA: 2026.3 RC, 2026.2.4, 2026.1.5.1, 2025.3.6.2, 2025.2.6.4.

The 2025.2.6.* updates for all IDEs now contain only the JBR fix. They will get a separate hotfix for the JCEF problem. Until then, use a workaround to disable JCEF in your IDE (see instructions below).

IDE versions 2025.1 and earlier, and Toolbox App 3.7 and earlier, will not receive this fix. You must update to a fixed version.

Details

In October 2026, the private keys of eight intermediate certificates issued by the certificate authority eMudhra were compromised. An attacker who can intercept your network traffic could use them to impersonate websites and services.

Full details of the incident.

JetBrains IDEs check certificates against the trust store of their bundled runtime, JetBrains Runtime (JBR), so updating your operating system doesn’t protect against this issue. We’ve integrated Oracle’s fixes for CVE-2026-91403 and CVE-2026-114820 into JBR as-is. The updated runtime blocks the compromised certificates and no longer trusts these root certificates:

• emSign ECC Root CA – G3
• emSign Root CA – G1
• emSign Root CA – G2
• AAA Certificate Services

In the fixed versions of 2025.3 and later, the embedded browser now receives Chrome’s certificate updates, which block the compromised certificates (CVE-2026-118696). It downloads them from Google’s update servers shortly after the IDE starts. If your network blocks access to Google’s update servers, the embedded browser stays unprotected. In this case, turn it off as described below.

The Toolbox App and JetBrains IDEs also install a background service, jetbrainsd. Its list of trusted certificates is built into the service itself, so updating JBR doesn’t fix it. We’ve released a separate fix in jetbrainsd 0.9.9728, tracked as CVE-2026-118697. Only one copy of jetbrainsd runs for each user, and a newer version always replaces an older one. Updating any app that includes jetbrainsd 0.9.9728 fixes it for all JetBrains apps.

What you should do: Update now

The fix is available in the latest versions of JetBrains IDEs, from 2025.2 up to 2026.3 RC. The upcoming 2026.3 release will include it too. Updating to the latest bugfix release of your current version is enough. Versions 2025.1 and earlier will not receive a fix. If you use one of them, please update to one of the versions above.

If you use ReSharper or other JetBrains .NET tools, update them to the latest version.

Important for Toolbox App users: versions 3.7 and earlier won’t receive this fix. If you’re on 3.7, update to version 3.9.1 or 3.8.2.

If you use JetBrains Gateway, update it to one of the following versions: 2026.1.4, 2025.3.3, 2025.2.6.

If you use JetBrains Runtime directly, update to one of the fixed builds: jbr25.635.79, jbr25.508.41, jbr25.329.142, jbr21.1163.125, jbr21.1038.91.

In rare cases, the IDE will no longer connect to a server whose certificate chains to one of the removed root certificates. The server’s owner will need to replace the certificate.

If you can’t update right away

Also check

Your project JDKs and any tools that bring their own runtime, such as Node.js, Python, or Go, use their own trust stores. Update them as their vendors recommend.
