A high-severity unpatched security flaw in Langflow, an open-source low-code platform to build artificial intelligence (AI) applications, has come under active exploitation in the wild, according to findings from VulnCheck. The vulnerability in question is CVE-2026-5027 (CVSS score: 8.8), a case of path traversal that could allow an attacker to write files to arbitrary locations. […]

Fortinet, Ivanti, and SAP have released security updates to address multiple critical security vulnerabilities that could result in arbitrary code execution and information disclosure. The security flaw patched by Fortinet relates to a command injection vulnerability in FortiSandbox, FortiSandbox Cloud, and FortiSandbox PaaS WEB UI. It’s tracked as CVE-2026-25089 (CVSS score: 9.1). “An

Cybersecurity researchers have warned of a “resurgence and expansion” of JDY, a covert network associated with China-nexus state-sponsored threat actors. “The JDY botnet comprises over 1,500 SOHO [small office and home office] and IoT devices and operates as a centrally controlled, high-performance scanner used to discover, fingerprint, and continuously map exposed services at scale,” Lumen’s

Your pentest report looks clean. That might be the problem. Run automated pentesting long enough, and the new findings start to dry up. By the third or fourth run, fewer issues appear. The report looks stable. Leadership reads “stable” as “secure.” It usually isn’t. The work slows down. The risk does not. That gap is

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) on Tuesday added three new vulnerabilities to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, following reports of active exploitation. The list of vulnerabilities is as follows – CVE-2026-20245 (CVSS score: 7.8) – An improper encoding or escaping of output vulnerability in Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN Manager that could allow

Microsoft on Monday confirmed that it temporarily removed some GitHub repositories in response to a recent security incident that led to 73 of its open-source projects being compromised to inject an information stealer into the code. “Our priority is to protect customers and the broader ecosystem,” a Microsoft spokesperson told The Hacker News via email.

Veeam has released security patches to address a critical flaw in its Backup & Replication software that could result in remote code execution. Tracked as CVE-2026-44963, the vulnerability carries a CVSS score of 9.4 out of a maximum of 10.0. “A vulnerability allowing remote code execution (RCE) on the Backup Server by an authenticated domain

Meta on Tuesday announced that it will use information shared by other businesses to personalize users’ feed and responses from its artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot, expanding its scope beyond targeted ads. “Businesses often share information about people’s activity on their sites with us to make ads more relevant,” Meta said in a statement. “We already

Two Russia-aligned cyber attack campaigns have continued to exploit a security flaw in WinRAR to target Ukrainian organisations, almost a year after patches for the vulnerability were released. The activity has been attributed by Trend Micro to Earth Dahu (aka Gamaredon) and SHADOW-EARTH-066 (aka UAC-0226). It involves the exploitation of CVE-2025-8088, a path traversal flaw

University of Toronto researchers have built and tested a proof-of-concept AI-driven computer worm that uses a locally hosted open-weight large language model to reason its way through a network, generate tailored attack strategies for each target it encounters, and replicate itself, all without human intervention and without touching a commercial AI service. The preprint, posted
