Looks like Mastodon's got a mammoth-sized security hole! The decentralized darling of social media has spotted a digital impersonator on the loose, ready to play dress-up with any account it fancies. With the cyber critter lurking in the shadows, Mastodon's telling its admins, "Patch it like it's hot!" before the flaw turns into a full-blown identity crisis.
