Two critical PHP vulnerabilities (CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619) can allow unauthenticated attackers to execute code on affected web servers. Both carry a CVSS v4.0 score of 9.2, and exploitation attempts are already being observed in the wild. PHP has released the following fixed versions: PHP branch Fixed version PHP 8.5 8.5.12 PHP 8.4 8.4.27 PHP 8.3 8.3.36 PHP 8.2 8.2.35 If you manage your own server or VPS,…
PHP.net announced that it will release a critical update today. We decided to change the infoCon to YELLOW due to the widespread use of PHP, the expected severity of the flaw (CVSS 9.4), and the availability of early PoC exploits before the patch became available.
IntroductionIn October 2026, Zscaler ThreatLabz investigated AI-assisted cyberattacks that combined the ARTEX penetration testing framework with AI coding assistants and custom automation scripts. Initial reporting of the incident identified the targeting of South Korean financial institutions. However, ThreatLabz discovered additional information about the attack, which went far beyond South Korea. The AI-assisted a…
Research finds that, among respondents experiencing data loss, only 16% said DLP blocked their most significant incidents before data left the organization.
OpenAI reveals two cases of AI agents disabling safety monitoring during coding tasks, with one falsely denying it had removed the safeguards. OpenAI published an internal incident report this week documenting two separate cases in which GPT-6 class agents weakened the system designed to detect misaligned behavior, in both cases while carrying out routine coding […]

It was discovered that c-ares incorrectly parsed certain SOA replies. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause c-ares to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. (CVE-2020-22217) It was discovered that c-ares incorrectly handled certain sortlist strings. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause c-ares to crash, resulting i…
Police agencies across the U.S. have deployed Automated License Plate Readers (ALPRs) to capture images of passing vehicles along with time, date, and GPS coordinates. While the technology itself isn’t new (ALPRs have existed in various forms for more than 50 years, and in the U.S. since 1998), the surveillance landscape has shifted dramatically. Rapid advances in artificial intelligence and national data sharing hav…
Using temporary credentials is a security best practice to reduce the risk from credentials getting compromised. With AWS IAM Roles Anywhere, now your workloads outside of Amazon Web Services (AWS) will be able to access AWS resources by obtaining temporary security credentials in AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM). IAM Roles Anywhere relies on public […]
It was discovered that poppler incorrectly handled the password length limit when decrypting certain encrypted PDF files. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service.
Several cybersecurity companies saw exploitation attempts of CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619 before PHP released the patches. The post PHP2Shell Patches Land as First Exploitation Attempts Hit Sensors appeared first on SecurityWeek.
The PHP project has released PHP 8.5.12, 8.4.27, 8.3.36, and 8.2.35 to fix two critical vulnerabilities, CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619, that can allow unauthenticated remote code execution.

A vulnerability in the control channel socket implementation of Open Source Snort 3 could allow an authenticated, local attacker with low privileges to execute arbitrary commands as the Snort 3 process user. This vulnerability is due to a lack of authentication when a local user connects to the Snort control channel socket. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by connecting to the Snort 3 control channel sock…
A vulnerability in Cisco Unified Communications Manager (Unified CM) and Cisco Unified Communications Manager Session Management Edition (Unified CM SME) could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to conduct access control bypass attacks on an affected device. This vulnerability is due to improper input validation for specific HTTP requests. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted HTTP…
A vulnerability in the interprocess communication (IPC) channel of the Secure Firewall Posture module in Cisco Secure Client could allow an authenticated, local attacker to elevate privileges on an affected device. This vulnerability is due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a series of crafted IPC messages to a local socket. A successful exploit…
A vulnerability in the IPv4 packet processing functionality of Cisco IOS XR Software that affects Cisco ASR 9000 and 9900 Series Aggregation Services Routers as well as Cisco ASR 9902 and 9903 Compact High-Performance Routers could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause network processor (NP) errors, resulting in a line card reset or shutdown and a denial of service (DoS) condition. This vulnerability is…
A vulnerability in the database service feature of Cisco Expressway Series could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker with network access to a Cisco Expressway device to execute arbitrary operating system commands as root. This vulnerability is due to the use of persistent cookies. Additionally, there is insufficient validation of client certificates when the TLS Verify Mode is set to Enabled for clustering, whi…
A vulnerability in Cisco Expressway Series could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to obtain sensitive information from an affected device. This vulnerability is due to insufficient authorization checks of HTTP requests during Mobile and Remote Access (MRA) provisioning. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by submitting a crafted URL request to an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the…
Google, Apple, and Mozilla have blocked compromised eMudhra certificate authority certificates after researchers found that their private keys could be recovered almost instantly, potentially allowing attackers to impersonate websites. The failure has also prompted Mozilla and Chrome to move toward distrusting eMudhra’s emSign ECC Root CA – G3, with the company estimating that approximately 30,000 … The post Google,…
