Hidden text on a web page was enough to make Kiro, AWS’s agentic coding IDE, rewrite its own configuration file and run an attacker’s code on a developer’s machine, with no approval step able to stop it. Intezer, in research with Kodem Security, found that a request as ordinary as asking Kiro to summarize a…
Google’s DeepMind on Tuesday announced the release of Gemini 3.5 Flash Cyber, a specialized artificial intelligence (AI) model built atop 3.5 Flash that’s designed to discover, validate, and patch vulnerabilities quickly and efficiently. According to the tech giant, the model will be exclusively available to governments and trusted partners via CodeMender as part of a…
A third SharePoint Server flaw patched by Microsoft as part of its Patch Tuesday update for July 2026 has come under active exploitation, per watchTowr. The vulnerability in question is CVE-2026-50522 (CVSS score: 9.8), a critical deserialization of untrusted data in Microsoft Office SharePoint that could allow an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a…
Threat actors have been observed exploiting a now-patched high-severity Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS vulnerability as an entry point to deploy Qilin (aka Agenda) ransomware on victim environments. Arctic Wolf Labs said it investigated multiple intrusions in June 2026 that began with the exploitation of CVE-2026-0257 (CVSS score: 7.8), an authentication bypass flaw affecting the portal…
Zimbra has rolled out fixes to address multiple critical security issues, including a command injection flaw in the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) monitoring component. As many as nine security vulnerabilities have been patched in Zimbra 10.1.20. Topping the list is a command injection vulnerability in the SNMP monitoring component when SNMP notifications are enabled….
AI-generated code introduces 15 vulnerabilities on average per codebase, but the actual risk depends on framework pairing more than the model used.
An Android app that can draw over other windows and write to shared storage can slip instructions to the AI agent driving that phone, in text no human eye will ever see. Two more steps, and the same app is running commands on the PC driving the agent. Researchers demonstrated that chain, plus six other…
Every patch is a confession. The moment a vendor ships a security fix, the diff between the old code and the new code tells anyone watching exactly what was broken and where. Turn that diff back into a working exploit, and you can hit every system that hasn’t updated yet. This is N-day exploitation, and…
A cloud tenant using nothing but ordinary GPU access can push a data center’s power draw up and down fast enough to threaten the grid it runs on, with no exploit and no break-in. That is the claim behind Bit2Watt, described by three Zhejiang University researchers in a paper accepted to CHES 2026, the IACR’s…
