Over 1,000 GitLab servers vulnerable to ongoing RCE attacksCVE-2026-97229 is a maximum-severity integer overflow in GitLab's CI/CD Regular Expression Compiler that lets an unauthenticated attacker run code via a crafted regex in pipeline configuration. GitLab patched it on 12 October 2026 in versions 19.4.2, 19.3.5 and 19.2.8. CISA added it to KEV, and Shadowserver tracks over 1,000 unpatched servers, plus 11,300 exposed to the related CVE-2026-110264.

Backporting security fixes at scale with CodexTrail of Bits describes a Codex (GPT-5.6) workflow that backports security fixes to stable Linux kernel trees, Ubuntu LTS and Fedora. By 29 October 2026 it had helped land fixes for 149 CVEs in stable kernels. Agents find missing fixes, adapt patches and assemble validation evidence; a human review takes about 30 minutes to 3 hours. It also sizes the unfixed-CVE backlog in kernel branches, Debian 13 and Ubuntu 26.04.

Alpine Linux rebuilds GitLab after attempted RCE attackAlpine Linux rebuilt its GitLab server and reset all passwords after attackers tried to exploit CVE-2026-97229, a maximum-severity integer overflow in the Onigmo regex engine bundled with Ruby, on October 20-21. Eight worker crashes occurred and four were partially successful. Missing logs and outbound connection records meant compromise could not be ruled out. Alpine had run GitLab 19.3.4, then 19.3.6, which lacked the Ruby patch; the fixed image is alpinelinux/gitlab:19.3.6 with Ruby 3.3.13.

TeamViewer Flaw Could Let Malicious Hosts Take Over Support Techniciansβ MachinesCVE-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.

What We Can Learn About GitHub Actions Security from the Trivy Breach | Endor LabsEndor Labs analyzes the March 2026 Trivy compromise (CVE-2026-33634, CVSS 9.4). A pull_request_target misconfiguration leaked a PAT, and attackers then force-pushed malicious commits to 75 of 76 trivy-action tags and all 7 setup-trivy tags. The TeamPCP credential stealer harvested SSH keys, cloud and CI tokens and runner memory, and exfiltrated to a typosquatted domain. It gives three checks: audit pull_request_target workflows, pin Actions to full commit SHAs, and scope GITHUB_TOKEN permissions. It also notes the limits of SHA pinning.

Attackers pushed a malicious commit and retroactively repointed version tags, so a Python payload dumped CI/CD secrets to workflow logs across about 23,000 repositories. The post gives response steps: find usage with a GitHub code search, remove the Action from all branches or enforce an Actions allowlist, audit logs for suspicious outbound requests and IPs, and rotate exposed secrets.

PWN Request Threat: A Hidden Danger in GitHub Actions | Endor LabsExplains the "pwn request" weakness in GitHub Actions. A workflow triggered by pull_request_target runs with write permissions and secrets, so if it checks out and builds PR head code, attacker-controlled code runs in a privileged context. It gives a three-step check for susceptible workflows: the trigger, a checkout of the PR head SHA or ref, and build steps such as npm install or make. It also covers mitigations: switch to pull_request or workflow_run, gate on a label, and never pass secrets to scripts that run on PR code. It notes safe patterns and cites the puppetlabs finding.
