OpenWrt has shipped version 24.10.8 to close a critical DHCPv6 stack overflow and a wider set of remotely triggerable flaws in network services enabled by default. The critical issue, tracked as CVE-2026-53921 and rated 9.8 on CVSS 3.1 in OpenWrt's GitHub advisory, lets an unauthenticated attacker able to reach the DHCPv6 server overwrite a stack buffer in odhcpd through a crafted DHCPv6
VU#141367: AT&T's Arris BGW210-700 gateway contains authentication bypass vulnerability in LAN-side management interface
Overview Firmware versions 2.7.7 and earlier of the Arris BGW210-700 residential gateway contain an authentication bypass vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2026-16771, that allows any unauthenticated LAN-side user to read sensitive configuration data and modify device settings through web management endpoints. Although this vulnerability was recently discovered, the majority of in-service gateways are not expected to be running the affected version. Only devices that have not received automated ISP-managed firmware updates since version 2.7.7 in 2020 are vulnerable. Description The Arris BGW210-700 is a residential gateway used widely in AT&T deployments to provide routing, wireless networking, and wide-area network (WAN) connectivity for home users. The device exposes a browser-based management interface on the local-area network (LAN) side that allows users to configure WiFi settings, check diagnostics, and run system operations. Several CGI (Common Gateway Interface) handlers within the BGW210-700's web interface do not enforce any server-side authentication checks. Although the interface presents an "Access Code" prompt to users, this restriction is entirely implemented through client-side HTML and JavaScript and is not validated by the server before processing requests. As a result, any HTTP client that ignores client-side code can directly access and interact with the underlying CGI endpoints. The lack of server-side authentication affects multiple configuration and diagnostic pages. The wconfig_unified.ha endpoint returns the plaintext WiFi pre-shared key for all configured SSIDs to any unauthenticated requester. The broadbandconfig.ha endpoint accepts unauthenticated POST requests that directly modify WAN configuration parameters, including settings that persist acr
The Iranian state-backed hacking group tracked as Nimbus Manticore (aka GalaxyGato, Mirage Kitten, Smoke Sandstorm, Subtle Snail, and UNC1549) has been attributed to a fresh set of attacks targeting entities across the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia.

Like most infrastructure, the Internet's fragility is easy to overlook — as long as it's working. When it fails, its complexity comes into full view. Cloudflare is in a unique position to detect and document the moments when one of the interrelated systems the Internet depends on breaks down and connectivity suffers as a result. Each quarter, we summarize the disruptions we detect and annotate on Cloudflare Radar . In Q2 2026, Super Typhoon Sinlaku just north of Guam caused the longest outage, while government-mandated shutdowns during exam periods in Sudan were the most frequent. Iran restored national Internet access, reconnecting its citizens to the global network after an 88-day blackout, even as damage from drone strikes continued to disrupt AWS infrastructure elsewhere in the region. Finally, a cable cut in Saint Lucia and the distribution of faulty DNSSEC signatures in Germany underscored the fragility of Internet infrastructure, but also the remarkable stability these regional and global systems maintain when operating normally. Here we will walk through the most significant Internet disruptions we observed in the second quarter of 2026, drawing on traffic data from Cloudflare Radar to show how each unfolded and what it meant for users on the ground. As always, this is a summary of notable, confirmed disruptions rather than an exhaustive list; a fuller view of detected traffic anomalies is available in the Cloudflare Radar Outage Center . Natural disasters and electricity cause disruptions in Guam, Venezuela, and Tanzania Super Typhoon Sinlaku, the strongest storm of the 2026 Pacific typhoon season so far, tracked through the Mariana Islands in mid-April, passing just north of Guam.

Codex’s /goal feature amplifies bug hunting, but getting good results requires the right prompt, the right scope, and the right number of outcomes per run. For Patch the Planet , our joint initiative with OpenAI to find and fix bugs in open-source software, we pointed Codex at some of the most widely used, heavily audited codebases in the world, like Rust, curl, and zlib. One tool came up again and again in our internal bug-report channels: /goal , which hands Codex an open-ended objective and lets it work independently toward a success condition. Here are a few highlights: /goal found every Rust bug we submitted, including a soundness hole and a miscompilation now patched in Rust 1.98, from a single variant-analysis pipeline. It turned every project’s past CVEs into Semgrep rules that had to fire on the vulnerable version and stay silent on the patched one, then flagged 11 variant hits across multiple projects. It uncovered two potential high-severity privilege-escalation bugs in Keycloak’s SAML component during a discovery run. Over the first few weeks of Patch the Planet, our engineers independently converged on three techniques for using /goal . We found that getting the most out of /goal means treating the prompt as a set of specific success criteria, not a set of instructions. (Note that this blog post uses /goal to refer to goal-based prompting in general. Codex can also set goals for itself through a tool call, and that’s how we recommend everyone use it; we rarely type the slash command ourselves.) 1. Let Codex write the goal The art o

Debugging privacy-preserving protocols is hard. Oblivious HTTP has several different steps across four different parties, not to mention binary HTTP encoding and details spread across many draft RFCs. We've taken what we've learned operating protocols like Oblivious HTTP at the scale of millions of requests per second, and wrapped it up in a nice, clean CLI tool — that we are open-sourcing today. We call it our privacy-client , or pvcli . We’re releasing it under the Apache-2.0 License, and it is open for contributions . Here’s a single line of code that executes a full Oblivious HTTP request with a relay, gateway and origin. Don't worry if you don't know what that means, we'll cover it below. We’ll explain why we built this tool, and show just how handy it can be. Why privacy protocols can be hard to debug Let’s take a closer look at our motivation for creating pvcli. Over time, the Privacy team’s product suite and customer base grew. We added products like Privacy Proxy and Privacy Gateway, which power Apple’s Private Relay , Microsoft’s Edge Secure Network VPN , Flo Health’s Anonymous Mode , and more. With it came an increasing amount of special customer requirements, domain knowledge, and complexity. As a result, we saw increased friction in development and incident response. To see this in action, let’s look at how one of our products implements

You've got them leading with "don't worry, your credit card is fine", the hacker leading with "they didn't respond when I tried to report it", and now news that the two parties have "come to an agreement". Maybe money was paid, or maybe Origin made some promises to restrain the hounds if commitments about data deletion were made. But both outcomes, of course, provide no guarantee that data has been nuked, so now they get to spend perpetuity waiting for the data that maybe - just maybe - it leaks. And we all should be working on precisely that assumption, just like we did with Optus and Medibank and Latitude and Ticketek and Qantas...

Border Gateway Protocol ( BGP ) is the de facto routing protocol of the Internet. It offers built-in mechanisms to allow entities, represented by Autonomous Systems (ASes), to express how they want to send and receive traffic on the Internet. One such mechanism is path attributes , which carry essential routing information and metadata for their associated route. The path selection algorithm processes some of these path attributes in a deterministic sequence to calculate the best path for this specific prefix. Using our unique position on the Internet, we took an investigative look at one of the well-known mandatory attributes in BGP, the ORIGIN attribute. ORIGIN must be present in every BGP prefix announcement and should not be modified by any router after being set by the originating one. What we found through our own experiments was a dramatic ~70% of observed paths in numerous vantage points have a different ORIGIN value compared to what was set by the originating Autonomous System. This ORIGIN attribute manipulation has a significant impact on the way traffic is forwarded on the Internet, as we’ll explore in this post. BGP ORIGIN and its operational history The ORIGIN attribute indicates how a route was injected into BGP — not to be confused with the origin AS that ind

Getting locked out of an account is no fun. Google has a few ways to help you regain access if you happen to forget your password or lose an authenticator, including recovery contacts and backup codes. Now, Google has a completely new option: your face . You can now give Google a video record of your face and sign into your account with a selfie, which sounds like something people are going to just love. You will have to set this feature up ahead of time if you want the option of regaining account access with a selfie later on. To get started, verify your account type is supported. You won't be able to configure selfie sign-ins for Workspace accounts, child accounts, or any account enrolled in Google's Advanced Protection Program. Configuring selfie sign-in requires you to record a video, which Google will store on its servers. Google's selfie sign-in landing page includes the typical disclaimers about privacy and data access, promising that the company will keep the video encrypted and won't use it for any other purposes unless you opt in.

Today we’re excited to announce Cache Response Rules. These are a new rule type that runs after an origin server replies but before Cloudflare caches the content. If you've ever been irked watching something that should easily sail out of cache get dragged back to the origin by a stray Set-Cookie or wrong Cache-Control , headers that are sometimes hard or impossible to strip or change on the origin itself, then Cache Response Rules is that fix, applied at exactly the right moment. When and how caching decisions are made A CDN cache and an origin server work as a pair. Their goal is to answer from the cache whenever possible and only go back to the origin when the edge can’t respond. Every point of cache hit ratio comes from getting that division of labor right. Check the cache when we shouldn't, and we waste a lookup that was always going to miss. Check it too rarely, the origin serves traffic the edge should have absorbed, and the performance win evaporates. Importantly, the origin guides the cache. When it returns a cacheable asset, its response headers tell Cloudflare how long it’s OK to serve it, when and how to revalidate, and even whether to cache it at all. The cache is only ever as efficient as the origin allows. If the origin gets it wrong, cache becomes decoration while the origin infrastructure costs skyrocket. Most cache eligibility problems are not decided at request time. They manifest after the origin replies. A visitor asks for /static/app.js . Cloudflare checks cache, it misses, and forwards the request to the origin. The origin returns the file. Somewhere in those response headers, quietly, is a Set-Cookie header. The asset that should have been cached at every Cloudflare data center is now uncacheable. Multiply that by every visitor, on every site, with the same accidental header, and you have a

VU#492466: Logto Identity Platform has authentication and authorization failures in core protocol handling
Overview The Logto platform contains multiple vulnerabilities affecting the identity‑processing pipeline. These flaws reduce the reliability of authentication and authorization decisions and may allow attackers to bypass account‑ownership checks, skip MFA, replay externally issued SSO responses, or submit identity assertions without proper cryptographic or validity checks. Collectively, the issues create several paths for unauthorized access across both local and federated sign‑in flows. Description Developed by Silverhand Inc., Logto is an identity and access management system for software as a service (SaaS) and AI applications. It provides multi‑tenant authentication, single sign-on (SSO), role-based access control (RBAC), support for openId connect (OIDC), open authorization (OAuth) 2.1, and Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) authentication. Several vulnerabilities have been identified in Logto's authentication and SSO components that weaken core identity‑security protections across these protocols. CVE-2026-15611 Logto allows unverified email-based SSO account linking. If a new SSO login arrives and no existing (issuer, identityId) account is found, Logto searches for a local user by the email address supplied by the identity provider (IdP) and links the SSO identity to that account. Logto does not require the IdP to confirm email_verified before linking, so an attacker who registers the victim's email at a permissive upstream IdP can take over the victim's existing account on first login. CVE-2026-15612 Logto stores a nonce in the connector session at authorization request time and expects the returned id_token to echo it back. The valida

VU#847406: Duplicati backup software v2.3.0.1 is vulnerable to an incorrect permission assignment vulnerability
Overview Duplicati v2.3.0.1 is vulnerable to arbitrary code execution when installed outside the default C:\Program Files\Duplicati 2\ directory. An attacker with local user privileges who can write files to the Duplicati installation directory can execute arbitrary code by placing malicious files, such as DLLs, in that directory. To mitigate this vulnerability, install Duplicati in the default C:\Program Files\ directory or update to the latest fixed version. Description Duplicati is a free, open-source backup solution that stores data across cloud and local storage platforms. On Windows, Duplicati is distributed as an MSI installer. By default, the installer deploys the application to C:\Program Files\Duplicati 2\ , where the directory inherits the standard protected ACLs provided by Windows. The following vulnerability affects Duplicati v2.3.0.1: CVE-2026-16157 During installation, the MSI registers a LocalSystem service that executes binaries from the Duplicati installation directory. When the default installation path under C:\Program Files\ is used, the directory is protected by the appropriate ACLs. However, if Duplicati is installed to a non-default location, the installer does not apply equivalent permissions to the installation directory. As a result, standard local users may have write access to files within the installation directory, allowing an attacker to place malicious files, such as DLLs, that may be loaded by the LocalSystem service, resulting in arbitrary code execution with elevated privileges. Impact A local attacker with write access to a non-default Duplica

The home appliance giant LG Electronics USA said this week it plans to suspend any apps built for its smart TVs that turn one’s television into an always-on residential proxy node. The move comes less than a month after researchers found that more than 42 percent of games and other apps available for download on LG’s webOS store allow unknown third-parties to route their Internet traffic through a user’s TV. Proxy SDK prevalence among smart TV apps for LG (webOS) and Samsung (Tizen OS) televisions. Image: Spur.us. On July 2, we featured research by the security firm Spur that examined the prevalence of residential proxy software development kits (SDKs) in smart TV apps. Spur found more than 42 percent of apps available for download on LG smart TVs include SDKs that turn one’s television in a proxy node indefinitely, and that more than a quarter of the apps made for Samsung’s Tizen operating system had similar residential proxy components. Responding to questions about Spur’s research, LG Senior Vice Presid
