AI Summary

Attackers compromised the .gh, .sl, and .as country‑code top‑level domains and used the registries to issue unauthorized HTTPS certificates for several Google domains, Google announced on October 6. The attack did not breach Google’s own systems. Any domain ending in .gh (Ghana), .sl (Sierra Leone), or .as (American Samoa) was at risk of having its certificates issued without permission. Google has not disclosed further steps or the extent of the compromise.
