CVE-2026-111585 (CVSS 8.8) is an integer overflow in the remote-control screen processing of TeamViewer clients on Windows, macOS, Linux and Android. A malicious or compromised host can announce an oversized screen surface (for example 32768 by 32768 at 32 bpp), forcing a software decode path and an out-of-bounds write that crashes the viewer or runs code. Remedio's research shows a pointer overwrite routed to WinExec. Version 15.83 fixes it, along with CVE-2026-92372, CVE-2026-92374 and six local privilege escalation bugs.

"Is Sycophancy a Form of In-Context Updating?" argues that factual sycophancy, a model's deference to a user's false beliefs, is a failure of in-context updating rather than only a bid for approval. Models also revise answers for claims attributed to external sources, more so when better supported, and deference persists when no user approval is at stake. The internal components behind deference also matter causally for general updating, so reducing sycophancy may reduce useful updating.

PS5LM is a homebrew app for jailbroken PS5s (firmware 7.00–13.60). It runs llama.cpp with the ggml-vulkan backend on the console's RDNA 2 GPU, using 11.4 GB of shared memory, and loads any GGUF model. It serves OpenAI /v1/chat/completions, Anthropic /v1/messages (usable from Claude Code, Codex and opencode) and a browser chat page on port 8081. It also supports image-projector vision models and TypeSafe-style decision models through a /v1/systemone endpoint. A planner picks the longest context and best cache that fit the free memory, and the app downloads models from Hugging Face.

This paper proposes a framework for auditing LLM-agent-generated stakeholder preferences before they are used as weights in multi-objective optimization for healthcare operations. Experiments on outpatient appointment scheduling and emergency department configurations show that explicit ratings vary by role and clinic conditions, deliberation can erase role differences, and pairwise choices depend largely on option order. Robust weighted-sum models often select different schedules than average weights.

CVE-2026-102764 is an arbitrary file upload in BeyondTrust Remote Support (formerly Bomgar) caused by internal appliance components not validating message origin. Mandiant found it exploited as a zero-day in late August 2026. BeyondTrust disclosed it on 15 October 2026 and CISA added it to KEV on 16 October 2026.

Each question has 11 matched conditions (one neutral, five mirrored narrative levels per opposing stance), giving 5,500 instances across seven LLMs. Causal framing and worldview synthesis raise agreement, personal experience can lower it, and GPT-5.1 ablations show bullet formatting also increases agreement.

ePrint paper presenting the first fully masked hardware implementation of HQC (key generation, encapsulation, decapsulation) on FPGA. It introduces a mixed Boolean/arithmetic masking for sparse-dense vector multiplication, proven first-order secure in the transition- and glitch-robust probing model and PINI-composable, at only 3% extra cycles and 81 random bits per cycle. It also shows a profiled horizontal side-channel attack on Rotate-and-Add multipliers that recovers support indices within ±8 positions from 200 traces despite TVLA showing no leakage after 10 million traces, and adds integrated hiding countermeasures costing 1.7% latency.

The paper separates "active" facts (which support generalization beyond recall) from "inert" ones. It builds new relations by relabeling answers of existing ones (Paris -> Europe becomes Paris -> crab), fine-tunes on a subset of subjects, and tests held-out subjects that share an answer (Munich -> crab). Across eleven language models and 70 relations, linear readability of the original relation in pretrained representations correlates with this generalization at Pearson r = 0.87 to 0.92 within each model. The result holds after controlling for fine-tuning set size, original-relation accuracy and subject frequency in pretraining text, and it survives re-randomized labels, seeds and thirteen other label categories. Mapping wrong labels back to the original answers shows the fine-tuned model's errors follow the linear probe's top answers.

Open-source Python CLI (`tra`) for autonomous trading desks in which LLM analysts (technical, macro, on-chain, sentiment) and validators only give opinions on figures the system computed. Fixed rules do the arithmetic: pricing the round-trip cost, applying risk limits, sizing, cost gates, and sending a single order with stop attached via ccxt (Bybit and OKX demo accounts tested). It supports multiple model providers with per-role models, effort settings and fallbacks. Every answer is parsed against a closed schema, every refusal is logged with the figure behind it, and models can tighten but never loosen controls. This makes it a concrete reference for keeping LLM agents away from arithmetic and money.

Introduces a cube-attack framework with an elimination strategy. It finds key conditions and cubes whose conditional superpolies are cheap to compute, then solves the resulting equation systems to recover key bits. The supporting techniques are a nested coefficient solver, conditional monomial prediction, an automated cube search combining numeric mapping with monomial prediction, and two testing methods for large equation systems. Against round-reduced Trivium it gives a practical key recovery at 840 rounds (complexity below 2^55, 77.8% success) and at 845 rounds (below 2^56, 98.1% success on 59.1% of keys). It also gives a theoretical weak-key attack at 855 rounds for 2^74 keys. These are the best known results, extending prior practical attacks by 13 rounds and theoretical attacks by 4.
