New Android SMS of Death exploit can remotely crash unpatched phones

CVE-2026-58882, "SMS of Death", is a zero-click Android denial-of-service flaw in WapPushOverSms.decodeWapPdu, where an unchecked header-length value becomes negative and triggers a NegativeArraySizeException that crashes com.android.phone. A malformed eight-byte WAP Push message to port 2948 can drop calls, including emergency calls, and about 20 messages caused reboot loops. A PoC is public. Google patched Android 14 through 17 in October 2026, but Android 12 and 13 remain vulnerable.

Pre-ERC: Agent Pre-Sign Risk Report

Pre-ERC: Agent Pre-Sign Risk Report is a draft Ethereum Magicians proposal for an EIP-712-signed report that a risk source, identified by an ERC-8004 identity, returns about one unsigned request. It carries typed findings on tokens, approvals, addresses, payments (x402) and texts, and each finding is marked read or not read. It has no score or verdict, so the consumer applies its own policy. The author's live implementation, toll, runs on Robinhood Chain.

ERC-8478: x402 Payee Verification for ERC-8004 Agents

ERC-8478 is a draft Ethereum standard that binds the x402 payTo address to an ERC-8004 agent's identity, to stop payee redirection by a hijacked domain, proxy or injected tool result. A payTo must equal the agentWallet or carry an EIP-712 delegation signed by it, and the origin must be listed in the registration file. On Robinhood Chain, 5 of 5,575 x402-responding agents used their agentWallet as payTo (28 October 2026).

Trezor reveals Malaysian reseller sold wallet with spyware

Trezor says a user reported a Safe 5 wallet bought from Malaysian reseller CryptoBilis in August 2026 with a hidden board between the main board and screen, carrying a cellular module and antenna. The implant allegedly reads the screen, including the wallet backup, and sends it over a mobile network when plugged in. Trezor has not yet examined the device, has dropped CryptoBilis (9 October), and is replacing wallets bought since March 2026.

Binance hack: the largest robbery in financial history

Binance hack analysis from 21shares on the 29 October 2026 theft of about $6.3 billion from Binance. Binance's initial finding points to a compromised DevOps engineer's laptop with no sign of a leaked wallet key. Chainalysis attributes it to North Korea with high confidence, and about $3 billion was frozen by Tether, Circle and the Arbitrum Security Council. The attacker also borrowed about $44.6 million of WETH on Aave. Binance says SAFU and company funds will cover all losses.

Malicious Claude Code extension on Cursor planted SSH backdoors

A malicious version 2.1.313 of Anthropic's Claude Code extension was served from Cursor's marketplace for about 11 hours on 29 October 2026, reaching up to 5,000 developers. A JavaScript loader prepended to extension.js added an attacker SSH key, a reverse tunnel and macOS/Windows persistence, and reported to 134.209.82[.]225. Coding errors likely blocked SSH access on many hosts. Cursor removed it and rotated keys; victims should look for an 'svc-telemetry' SSH key.

On the Fundamental Limits of Prefill-Based Decoding Length Prediction

This paper derives bounds on predicting an LLM's decode length from prefill-phase hidden states, a primitive for inference scheduling. It models decoding as a stopped stochastic process, giving per-prompt normality and an affine variance law σ=αμ+b. Predictors (MLP, EGTP, FiLM, soft-label, Mixture-of-Experts) converge near the bound, so system error dominates model error. It proposes fixing model, data and sampling in benchmarks and reporting relative-error metrics.

M-PFT is an angular-margin method for prompt tuning of vision-language models that fixes base-to-novel dual miscalibration (underconfidence on base classes, overconfidence on novel classes). It adds two losses: minimizing the maximum cosine similarity between tunable class embeddings, and minimizing angular distance to each zero-shot embedding. Tests on 9 prompt-tuning methods and 15 datasets show lower novel-class calibration error at comparable accuracy and negligible overhead.

Deogen: Automatic Benchmark Generation for Reasoning over Policies

DeoGen is an automatic, parametrizable benchmark generator for deontic reasoning, where a model applies policy rules to facts to reach a verdict. It autoformalizes rules into first-order logic, builds decision trees, and turns each tree path into a benchmark entry. Frontier models give the correct verdict 89-92% of the time, but only 22-40% on entries lacking enough information, even when told to abstain.

China-Linked Hackers Exploit PHP2Shell to Root Firewalls

A China-linked actor chained PHP2Shell (CVE-2026-109618, CVE-2026-109619) with the Fragnesia Linux kernel privilege escalation (CVE-2026-46300) to root firewalls and drop PHP webshells, per Dream. Using FOFA, the actor narrowed 19,000 firewalls to 240 targets and rooted 24 on 23-24 October. On two US government-affiliated devices it used a reverse SSH tunnel, hit the firewall management server, and attempted LDAP and Active Directory abuse.

Thread on CVE-2026-97631, a critical (9.5) flaw in TianoCore EDK II UEFI firmware, found by Alex Matrosov and Dan Holmes-Mitra. It is exploitable only while a machine is PXE network booting and the attacker sends an oversized ICMP error from the same network. Code execution also needs the exact firmware build, and Secure Boot does not help. The fix landed in EDK II main on 15 October but is not in a stable release. No known exploitation, and not in CISA KEV.

CVE-2026-92885 is a critical (CVSS 3.1 9.8, CWE-287) authentication bypass in the Qode Membership WordPress plugin, versions through 2.0.6.2. A misspelled variable in the Facebook token-verification guard skips provider checks, so an unauthenticated attacker with a public nonce can get a session cookie for an existing account, including an administrator. The post gives the fix (2.0.6.3, bundled in Bridge 30.9), KEV/EPSS/SSVC status, and a SOC log-correlation and remediation plan.

Benchmarking decision models against generative large language models on medical multiple-choice questions

This preprint benchmarks 13 decision models against 15 generative LLM configurations, including different reasoning settings, on 1,273 text-only four-option MedQA questions. Accuracy ran 67.71% to 89.08% for decision models and 78.32% to 96.86% for generative configurations. Decision models were cheaper and faster, but answers with probability of at least 0.90 still had error rates of 1.71% to 12.77%, and probability repeatability varied across three runs.

Thread by Kizuno18 on the move from local stdio/Docker Model Context Protocol servers to remote HTTP/SSE endpoints in enterprise infrastructure. It names three trade-offs: credential boundary inversion (short-lived OAuth/JWT tokens instead of long-lived admin tokens on workstations), tool schema bloat solved by deferred discovery, and governance via HCP Terraform policy-as-code (Sentinel/OPA), audit trails and approvals. It is opinion, with no data or implementation detail.

Kizuno18's X post argues that the move from local stdio and Docker MCP servers to remote HTTP/SSE endpoints matures the Model Context Protocol in enterprise infrastructure. It lists three trade-offs: short-lived OAuth/JWT bearer tokens replace mounted admin credentials, deferred tool discovery avoids roughly 20k tokens of eager schema loading, and HCP Terraform enforces Sentinel/OPA policy, audit trails and approvals server-side. Opinion post with no benchmarks or code.

Metacognitive Decoding: Efficient Inference for Diffusion Language Agents

Metacognitive Decoding is a lightweight plug-in controller for diffusion language model backbones. It learns when to finalize tokens and how far generation should extend, and is trained on agent trajectories to balance correctness against generation cost. Across five benchmarks it cuts inference FLOPs by 20.6% on average versus the most efficient baseline, with competitive task accuracy. The abstract names no specific benchmarks or backbones.

Perceiving and Predicting Dynamic Sports: Spatiotemporal Intelligence in Vision Models for Egocentric Tennis Video

This paper presents an annotated egocentric tennis dataset (egocentric video synced with five allocentric views, global positions, contact times, stroke types) and evaluates image encoders, video encoders and vision-language models on seven prediction tasks. Best models reach 0.14 m player and 0.54 m ball localization error and 0.14 s contact-time error. Depth input helps 3D ball localization, and longer histories do not help forecasting. A conditional diffusion model generates whole-body tennis motion in real time.

When Is Additional Retrieval Worthwhile? A Cost-Aware Study of Evidence Gain and Answer Reliability in RAG

This paper studies a cost-aware, two-action RAG routing policy that chooses between dense retrieval plus reranking and a hybrid lexical-dense retriever, using a regularized linear model to predict per-question evidence gain. On 60 held-out QASPER articles (188 questions), it triggers hybrid retrieval on 24.5% of questions and matches always-hybrid Hit@10 (78.70%). Answers from 4-bit Qwen3-4B show no clear correctness or faithfulness gain, and the assessments are model-assisted.
