The access-control handshake can be bypassed (CWE-306/CWE-798), letting a local authenticated attacker send privileged commands and read kernel and other processes' memory. Fixed in 8.00.26.0012; the PoC author and LOLDrivers frame the signed driver as BYOVD material, which WatchGuard does not say. The post notes it is not in CISA KEV, has no reported in-the-wild exploitation, and that ThreatWire has not run the PoC.

x.comthreadπ‘οΈ SecurityA security researcher's thread breaks down CVE-2026-105135, an unpatched critical (CVSS 10.0) remote code execution vulnerability in InternLM's MindSearch agent with a public PoC. The flaw is in ExecutionAction.run in mindsearch/agent/graph.py, which passes the planner LLM's output directly to Python's exec() β if the model's reply lacks a code fence, the entire response is executed, and a crafted query to the /solve endpoint can get the model to emit attacker-controlled code that runs as root inside the shipped Docker container (which binds 0.0.0.0:8002). The author notes prompt filtering cannot fix this since the attacker only needs the model's output to contain code, and recommends running any agent that executes model-written code in a network-isolated, non-root sandbox kept off public ports.

It documents real-world exploitation of an AI-discovered CVE in BeyondTrust PRA and a surge in vulnerabilities targeting the AI/LLM operational stack, especially agent orchestration frameworks like Langflow and Flowise and inference gateways like LiteLLM and vLLM, citing specific CVEs in those products.

anthropic.comarticleπ‘οΈ SecurityAnthropic's Frontier Red Team analyzes GLM-5.3, an open-weight model from Zhipu AI (Z.ai), finding it matches Claude Mythos Preview's exploit-development capability (50/410 vs 56/410 end-to-end exploits on ExploitBench against Chrome's V8 engine; 4% vs 6% full control-flow hijacks on an internal OSS-Fuzz binary exploitation benchmark) but ships with safeguards attackers bypass 64-100% of the time via prompting tricks, prefill, or "abliteration" of the open weights. The post documents a researcher using GLM-5.3 to chain previously unknown JavaScript-engine vulnerabilities into a working browser file-read exploit, and GLM-5.3-Flash autonomously building a reliable ARM64 PAC-bypass exploit chain for CVE-2026-11645 for about $20. It argues GLM-5.3's lack of meaningful safeguards marks a step change in freely accessible offensive cyber capability and calls for independent government safety testing of such open-weight models.

orca.securityadvisoryπ‘οΈ SecurityAnalysis of two CVSS 9.5 Citrix NetScaler ADC/Gateway zero-days, CVE-2026-88771 (unauthenticated RCE through improper input validation in the management interface, affecting default deployments) and CVE-2026-88772 (memory overflow in DTLS, enabled by default on VPN virtual servers). It lists six more high-severity flaws patched in advisory CTX697096, the affected and fixed versions, and the CISA KEV listing with a federal deadline of 2026-09-30. It advises checking for compromise before patching, since patching can destroy forensic evidence, and gives response steps: isolate, revoke credentials, rebuild firmware, rotate keys and certificates.

cloud.google.comwriteupπ‘οΈ SecurityMandiant and GTIG report on exploitation of the Citrix NetScaler ADC and Gateway zero-day CVE-2026-88772, active since early September 2026, alongside CVE-2026-88771. It covers the DTLS-triggered NSPPE crash, httpd.conf persistence via .deb and .sig handlers, SUID /bin/sh, and the WHIPSHOT web shell and SLAPSHOT tunneler. It gives hunting commands, log artifacts, YARA rules, patched builds and containment steps.

labs.watchtowr.comwriteupπ‘οΈ SecuritywatchTowr Labs reverse-engineers CVE-2026-88772, a preauth DTLS memory overflow in Citrix NetScaler ADC/Gateway's nsppe binary, exploited in the wild as a zero-day and fixed in Citrix bulletin CTX697096. The writeup walks through patch diffing between build 14.1-73.30 and 14.1-73.37, crafting malicious DTLS handshake fragments that trick NetScaler's reassembly logic into copying about 174KB of NSB chain data into a 35,840-byte scratch buffer, and the full exploitation path from crash to a fake-vtable hijack, ROP-based mprotect call, and shellcode execution, plus a public detection artefact generator.

unit42.paloaltonetworks.comarticleπ‘οΈ SecurityOperTraitor is an open-source, LLM-powered engine from Unit 42 that reads RBAC manifests of installed and OperatorHub Kubernetes operators and scores the gap between documented function and granted privileges. It found about 5% of operators over-privileged, including IBM Prometurbo (CVE-2026-6389, CVSS 8.8, cluster-wide secret read) and the Datadog operator. The article lists mitigations: namespace-scoped operators, RBAC downscoping, audit-log monitoring, and guardrails for agentic operators.
