∗∗∗ Popular WordPress redirect plugin hid dormant backdoor for years ∗∗∗

∗∗∗ RDP Security: CPS Threats Spark Need for Secure Remote Access ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
1.8 million RDP and 1.6 million VNC servers are exposed on the internet. [..] 18% of exposed RDP servers run end-of-life Windows versions; an additional 42% run Windows 10, which reached end of support last October. [..] 19,000+ RDP servers remain vulnerable to BlueKeep (CVE-2019-0708) — a critical remote code execution flaw. Nearly 60,000 VNC servers have authentication disabled — 670+ of those have direct access to OT/ICS control panels. [..] Hacktivist groups are sharing custom tools to scan for vulnerable VNC servers and selling access to compromised assets.

∗∗∗ Google Fixes CVSS 10 Gemini CLI CI RCE and Cursor Flaws Enable Code Execution ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
Google has addressed a maximum severity security flaw in Gemini CLI -- the "@google/gemini-cli" npm package and the "google-github-actions/run-gemini-cli" GitHub Actions workflow -- that could have allowed attackers to execute arbitrary commands on host systems. [..] The update addresses the problem by requiring folders to be explicitly trusted before configuration files can be accessed. To that end, users are being urged to review their workflows and adopt one of two approaches.

Der Hersteller cPanel hat kürzlich Sicherheitsupdates zur Behebung einer kritischen Schwachstelle (CVE-2026-41940) in den Produkten cPanel & WHM sowie WP Squared veröffentlicht. Laut Berichten von watchTowr wird diese Schwachstelle bereits aktiv durch Angreifer:innen ausgenutzt, um Hosting-Infrastrukturen zu kompromittieren. Es gibt Hinweise darauf, dass gezielte Zero-Day-Angriffe bereits seit Ende Februar 2026 stattfinden.

The Socket Research Team has detected an active supply-chain attack targeting the unscoped tanstack package on npm, a brand-squatted impersonation of the legitimate @tanstack/* organization. Beginning today, the package's maintainer (sh20raj) began pushing malicious versions that silently steal environment variable files, including .env, .env.local, and .env.production, from developers' machines at install time, exfiltrating them to an attacker-controlled endpoint. Versions 2.0.4 through 2.0.7 are confirmed malicious.

Durch den übertragenen Nutzernamen können bösartige Akteure aus dem Netz ohne vorherige Anmeldung beliebige SQL-Befehle und Schadcode einschleusen. Das gelingt in Szenarien, die USER-Anfragen mit Erweiterungen wie „%U“ loggen und in denen das SQL-Backend Befehle zulässt, beispielsweise „COPY TO PROGRAM“ (CVE-2026-42167, CVSS 8.1, Risiko „hoch“). [..] Admins sollten daher prüfen, ob sie das mod_sql etwa für Logging in Datenbanken überhaupt einsetzen.

Der Vorgang funktioniert zuverlässig und ohne typische Hürden wie Race Conditions oder spezielle Systemabhängigkeiten.

---------------------------------------------
In yet another instance of threat actors quickly jumping on the exploitation bandwagon, a newly disclosed critical security flaw in BerriAI's LiteLLM Python package has come under active exploitation in the wild within 36 hours of the bug becoming public knowledge. The vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2026-42208 (CVSS score: 9.3), is an SQL injection that could be exploited to modify the underlying LiteLLM proxy database. An unauthenticated attacker could send a specially crafted Authorization header to any LLM API route (for example, POST /chat/completions) and reach this query through the proxy's error-handling path.

I could also hijack all their RIPE Database objects, locking the legitimate owners out until RIPE NCC staff manually restore them. This attack chain comes down to surprising entry points, risky architectural decisions, and components that don’t look security-critical until they are.

Dabei können sie die Konfigurationsdatei app.ini mit eigenen Befehlen überschreiben und die volle Kontrolle über Instanzen erlangen. Durch das erfolgreiche Ausnutzen einer weiteren Lücke (CVE-2026-42221 „hoch“) können Angreifer im Zuge der Ersteinrichtung Admin-Accounts kapern. Das soll ohne Authentifizierung möglich sein.

∗∗∗ Obfuscation vs the Optimizer: An LLVM Middle-End Arms Race ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
Obfuscation is security through obscurity; its purpose is to transform a piece of code into a much more complex representation, whilst preserving the original semantics of the code. A compilers job is to transform source code into binary code and produce the simplest and most optimized representation it can for a given architecture. These are contrary goals, yet this contradiction is where obfuscators find their greatest leverage.

∗∗∗ HTTP desync in Discords media proxy: Spying on a whole platform ∗∗∗

In 2022, I came across a quirky behavior on media.discordapp.net when I miskeyed a space character into an attachment link: a 502 bad gateway. After some fiddling I realized that this was caused by a HTTP injection bug within the media proxy’s request to the upstream GCP bucket. The space character corrupted the proxied HTTP message, which caused the connection to prematurely terminate.
