Gmail News & Updates

Google has patched on Wednesday a major security bug impacting the Gmail and G Suite email servers.

The bug could have allowed a threat actor to send spoofed emails mimicking any Gmail or G Suite customer.

According to security researcher Allison Husain, who found and reported this issue to Google in April, the bug also allowed attachers to pass the spoofed emails as compliant with SPF (Sender Policy Framework) and DMARC (Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance), two of the most advanced email security standards.

Gmail is one of Google's most widely used products, which means the company likes to cram a lot of integrations with its other tools into it. Last year, a redesigned interface showed up for G Suite customers with support for Chat and Rooms sections in the sidebar. Now Google is rolling out an update that lets users resize these sections to suit their needs.

The company says that this will make it easier to keep track of your most important conversations and navigate to chats faster than before.
