Infosec in brief: Proton Mail has again been criticized for handing user recovery data to law enforcement leading to arrests; Google released a Chrome patch for CVE-2024-4671 (a use-after-free) that is known to be exploited in the wild alongside several other high-CVSS vulnerabilities affecting ICS and enterprise products; the USPTO exposed approximately 14,000 patent applicants' private addresses due to an IT migration error; and LockBit ransomware caused major outages for Wichita city services, taking payment systems, utilities, courts and airport screens offline.
