Meaning, they are continuously sending their Windows usernames and passwords to domain names they do not control and which are […]

Google says it recently fixed an authentication weakness that allowed crooks to circumvent the email verification required to create a Google Workspace account, and leverage that to impersonate a domain holder at third-party services that allow logins through Google’s “Sign in with Google” feature.

At least a dozen organizations with domain names at domain registrar Squarespace saw their websites hijacked last week.
