  2. Northflank security breach leads to abuse of customers' AI API keys

    Northflank, a cloud application hosting platform, disclosed a breach on 30 October 2026 after a Wiz threat alert and told customers to assume all environment variables were decrypted and to rotate secrets. Customers reported unauthorized use of AI API keys. Wiz's "Black October for AI Developer Platforms" report counts at least nine incidents, including Railway, OpenCode, Warp and Lightning AI, and describes LLMJacking, with about 2.5 million Amazon Bedrock calls costing roughly $100,000 in two cases. Northflank has not said how attackers got in.

  3. 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.

  7. Your Benchmark Is an Empirical Measure Over Difficulty

    The paper treats a benchmark as an empirical measure over item difficulty and formalizes two failure modes: measure mismatch (benchmark difficulty distribution differs from the intended one) and coverage gaps (uncovered difficulty regions that hide localized training progress). It proposes two diagnostic metrics with theoretical guarantees and analyzes 25 popular benchmarks across 7 domains using estimated item difficulties. It also introduces BenchFill, a difficulty-targeted item rewriting algorithm that reduces local coverage gaps.

    CVE-2026-98432 is a use-after-free race condition in the Linux kernel IPv4 TCP code (tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock, ireq_opt), affecting kernels back to 4.4 and rated 9.8 by the kernel CVE team (Red Hat rates it 5.9). Anthropic researchers say an unreleased Claude model built an exploit that bypassed KASLR and got remote root on an MPTCP listener in about 53 minutes. The article lists distro patch status and CIQ's nftables mitigation for IP options; disabling MPTCP alone does not help. No in-the-wild exploitation is reported.

  28. Retrieving from Your Own Mistakes: On-Policy Training of Embedding Models for Multi-Hop Retrieval-Augmented Generation

    On-policy state training is a method for training chain embedding retrievers for multi-hop RAG on the states the encoder itself reaches, including those built on its own wrong retrievals. Each state is labeled with the earliest missing gold passage, other missing gold passages are masked, and updates are contrastive and mixed with teacher-forced states. It retrieves complete evidence more often than teacher-forced training and graph-based systems, and transfers to harder long-chain HotpotQA and 2WikiMultiHopQA variants the authors built.

Higher effort often fails on tasks lower effort solved, and on easy tasks the top level costs up to 42x the lowest. Starting at the lowest effort and escalating only after a verified failure matches or beats fixed top effort, usually at lower cost for proprietary models.

Fixed in Brotli 1.0.10, 1.1.1 and 1.2.1, with patches from Node.js, Microsoft (.NET, Visual Studio, PowerShell on October 25), PyPI Brotli and brotlicffi, Bun, Envoy and Istio. Imperva showed code execution on Node.js 24.22.0 arm64; no in-the-wild exploitation is reported and some researchers say it only enables DoS.

  97. Cryptanalysis and Repair of "Decentralized Multi-authority ABE for NC$^1$ from BDH"

    Cryptology ePrint 2026/2642 presents a plaintext-recovery attack on the DBDH and CBDH variants of the Datta, Komargodski and Waters multi-authority ABE for NC1 (Journal of Cryptology, 2023). It needs one corrupt authority and two users, and succeeds with probability one in the static model. The flaw is an invalid extension of the Rouselakis-Waters LSSS matrix-normalization lemma. The paper also attacks two Datta-Pal (PKC 2023) attribute-based inner-product schemes and proves repaired versions secure in the random oracle model.

  98. Subexponential Algorithms for LWE via Rejection Sampling on Superlattices

    Subexponential Algorithms for LWE via Rejection Sampling on Superlattices is an ePrint paper by Ligeng Fan, Changpeng Shao, Hongbo Li and Dingkang Wang. It extends the Ducas, Engelberts and Loyer superlattice framework to give a provable classical search-LWE algorithm for prime q in [n^2, 2n^2], using m=4n samples and time and space exp(O(n/ln ln n)). A second variant runs in 2^((1/2+o(1))n/ln R) for general parameters. It resolves a gap left by Kirchner and Fouque.

  99. Maximum-Likelihood Decoding of Gabidulin Codes Is NP-Hard Even in Dimension One

    Philippe Gaborit proves that maximum-likelihood decoding of Gabidulin codes is NP-hard even for dimension one: deciding rank distance at most n-2 from the code {Ξ»g} is NP-complete. The reduction is deterministic, so Rank Syndrome Decoding and Rank Minimum Distance for F_{q^m}-linear codes are NP-complete under deterministic reductions, where the earlier reduction was randomized. It goes through a new pivot problem, Twisted Square Membership.

It also covers the 2025 decompression-bomb fix, released 283 days after its release notes, and urllib3's follow-up bug. Open out-of-bounds read PRs and a .NET CPU exhaustion issue remain.

Three authors coded the policies with moderate agreement. Malware, intellectual property and content removal are covered everywhere, while package size limits, metric manipulation, typosquatting and binary uploads diverge.

The setting is off by default, advertisers do not see the underlying content, and users can opt out under Connected Content apps in Data & privacy settings. Android Authority first spotted the change, and previously collected data may remain in Search history.

    Sweden's Government Offices will block ChatGPT and Claude on staff computers from 26 October 2026 and leave Microsoft Copilot as the only approved AI tool, citing information security. Digitalisation director Mikael Wettercrantz said unvetted AI use had involved sensitive inputs and poorly handled outputs. The Tax Agency and National Board of Institutional Care have similar bans, and the European Parliament disabled AI features in February 2026. Whether Copilot has Claude models enabled is unconfirmed.

  115. Faster Matrix Multiplication Leads to Faster Lattice Sieving

    Gao and Hu's IACR ePrint 2026/2622 shows that if the matrix multiplication exponent satisfies Ο‰ ≀ 9/4 βˆ’ Ξ·, heuristic lattice sieving runs in (3/2 βˆ’ Ξ΄)^(n/2+o(n)) time under the spherical heuristic from the BDGL analysis. It builds on OpenAI's recent result that Ο‰ ≀ 9/4. With known matrix multiplication algorithms, the method already gives subquadratic search inside BDGL buckets. Only the abstract is available, so concrete parameters are not shown.

  116. When Elliptic-Curve Semiprimality Certificates Reveal Factors

    The paper formalizes elliptic-curve semiprimality certificates by adapting the Goldwasser-Kilian primality criterion. For certificates built with complex multiplication, a norm-lattice reconstruction factors N from (N, S, D) alone in expected polynomial time. The author uses it, plus public-point and quadratic-twist attacks, to factor Reble's 1084-digit and Broadhurst's 5061-digit moduli, and shows that hidden-cofactor, withheld-CM-map and private-isogeny repairs also fail.

  120. Hey, guess what: CUES lead to inferences about typicality

    The paper builds two corpora, EventTyp and the human-validated EventTypGold, to study how people infer typicality and atypicality of events from what is said. Large-scale human and LLM experiments show that three CUES predict these inferences in humans: Commonsense Knowledge, Utterance Emphasis and Snark. In most settings LLMs lack the commonsense knowledge to judge an event's general typicality, so they struggle to follow the CUES.
