91 results for “Remote code execution”

Thread by Elvis Saravia (omarsar0) summarising an Anthropic-led paper on pretraining data poisoning of CLI agents. Poisoning 0.1% of pretraining data planted a remote code execution backdoor in Qwen3 models (0.6B, 1.7B, 4B) trained from scratch. It survived SFT, DPO and RL, and fired on about 92% of triggered prompts at 4B. At a 0.0005% poison rate (about 2,500 documents) it still fired on 1.4% of prompts.

Unit 42 threat brief on PHP2Shell, two PHP remote code execution flaws, CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619 (CVSS 4.0 9.2), both caused by longjmp() error handling that leaves memory uninitialized or freed. Cortex Xpanse counted over 22.6 million exposed instances. The 29 October 2026 update says attackers chained PHP2Shell with a Linux kernel privilege escalation against internet-exposed PAN-OS management interfaces. An earlier 23 October claim of post-compromise activity was retracted on 25 October.

Rapid7 analysis of CVE-2026-97229, a CVSS 10.0 integer overflow (CWE-190) in the Onigmo regex compiler used by GitLab CE/EE's CI/CD regex handling. A crafted regex in a .gitlab-ci.yml passes validation as US-ASCII, then is recompiled for a UTF-8 repository path, producing invalid instructions that give code execution as the git user. Rapid7 reproduced it on GitLab CE 19.4.1 with ASLR (patched in 19.4.2); despite the vendor's "unauthenticated" rating, the attacker needs to commit a malicious config to a public project, which self-registration allows. No in-the-wild exploitation is confirmed, and Rapid7 recommends urgent upgrades.

A 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() — 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.

Horizon3.ai discloses CVE-2026-61500, a session-forgery vulnerability in Rejetto HTTP File Server (HFS) 3.x found using Anthropic's Mythos model. HFS seeds Koa's keygrip session-signing key with V8's insecure, invertible Math.random() PRNG and separately leaks raw Math.random() outputs through an unauthenticated login endpoint; by sampling a dozen leaked outputs and feeding them to the Z3 SMT solver, an attacker can recover the xorshift128+ internal state, step it backwards to the process-start signing key, and forge an admin session cookie that leads to remote code execution via HFS's built-in admin JavaScript execution feature. The piece walks through the full exploit chain and argues that Mythos independently chained the crypto weakness and the leak, built the Z3-based key-recovery solver, and produced a working PoC without additional prompting.

The payload is a Go port of Graphalgo sharing blockchain infrastructure, Slack C2, and a public key with prior JS/NPM samples; it activates only under specific hash-gated runtime conditions (targeted attack indicator), then deploys a Go RAT with dual C2 channels — an Ethereum (Arbitrum Sepolia) smart-contract dead drop and Slack bot messaging — plus self-delete and remote code execution capabilities.

Embrace The Red (Johann Rehberger) demonstrates an indirect prompt injection attack chain that achieves 60-80% success rates hijacking Claude Code Opus 5 Auto Mode into remote code execution, contrasting with a vendor-run benchmark that reported 0.00% attack success. The chain nudges Claude from WebFetch to curl, delivers a malicious ZIP archive, and exploits Python module shadowing (a poisoned struct.py) when Claude writes its own decoder script, ultimately downloading and executing a payload that establishes C2 and even spawns a nested headless Claude Code instance. Anthropic closed the report as "Informative, working as designed," framing Auto Mode as a best-effort classifier rather than a security boundary, reinforcing that sandboxing and egress control remain necessary mitigations.
