Dozens of hardware IDs have been added to Apple’s services backend | Macworld
Dozens of hardware IDs have been added to Apple’s services backend
Macworld At tomorrow’s Surprise and Shine event, Apple is expected to announce the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max, iPhone Ultra (or whatever Apple calls its first folding iPhone), the Apple Watch Series 12, and the Apple Watch Ultra 4. Other products that might make an appearance include new AirPods, HomePod mini, and Apple TV 4K. So it’s a big event. And Apple is geting ready. According to a social media post by Aaron Perris, dozens of hardware product identifiers have been found on Apple’s services backend. This is the list: iPhone19,1iPhone19,2iPhone19,3iPhone19,4iPhone19,5iPhone19,6iPhone19,7 Mac17,10Mac17,11Mac17,12Mac17,13Mac18,1Mac18,2Mac18,6Mac18,7Mac19,1 iPad18,1iPad18,2iPad19,1iPad19,2iPad19,3iPad19,4iPad19,5iPad19,6 Watch8,1Watch8,2Watch8,3Watch8,4Watch8,5Watch8,6Watch8,7Watch8,8Watch8,9 AppleTV18,1 HomeAccessory17,1HomeAccessory17,2HomeAccessory17,3 By and large these are all devices we expect to see from Apple within the next few months, but not necessarily at the Surprise and Shine event on September 9. For starters, we’re not expecting any Macs this week. Apple adds hardware IDs to identify any specific variant of a product to its services. That means iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max both get different identifiers, and there are often separate versions for regional cellular differences. iPads of each different size get their own IDs. Same with Apple Watch: Apple has different IDs for different sizes, with and without cellular, and sometimes different materials (like the rumored ceramic option). The interesting thing here is that there are seven iPhones listed, when we would expect to see six: US and international regional variants for the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and iPhone Ultra. If there were another iPhone model on the way soon, such as the iPhone Air 2, it should have two identifiers. It’s likely the seventh is just another variant of one of the three expected models, perhaps to meet the technical needs of a specific market, but without any outwardly obvious difference in specs. HomeAccessory listings are interesting, too. HomePods have carried the ID “AudioAccessory” in the past. Either that has changed with the new HomePod mini, or this is the listing for the rumored Home Hub device. And if that’s true, where’s the AudioAccessory listings for the new HomePod mini? At the end of the day, this list doesn’t really tell us all that much. It includes both products that are expected soon but not necessarily at this week’s event, and also does not includes other products that are expected soon, like AirPods or HomePod mini. At any rate, we’ll know a bit more about Apple’s plans in just a few hours.

Foldable iPhone Duo Will Start at $2,000, Won't Launch Until at Least October | MacRumors
Foldable iPhone Duo Will Start at $2,000, Won't Launch Until at Least October
Following some recent speculation that Apple could release its foldable phone under the "iPhone Duo" name, it appears that will indeed be the case, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. For months now, the foldable iPhone has generally been referred to as the "iPhone Ultra," even internally, but Apple is apparently going in a different direction for the official name, emphasizing the dual-screen nature of the device. Gurman says the iPhone Duo will start at $2,000 for 256 GB of storage and max out at around $3,000. Rumors had suggested the phone would likely start at above $2,000, perhaps as high as $2,500, so a $2,000 entry-level price could help bolster customer demand.The entry-level version will include 256 gigabytes of storage, with Apple offering higher-capacity versions that will take the price all the way up to roughly $3,000. Apple blew through its cost goals due to the recent memory shortage, so it's eating some of the expense to keep within reach of $2,000. It's also passing the costs along to consumers who buy higher capacities.As for availability, the device will reportedly come in white and dark blue and "go on sale as early as October." Rumors have long suggested the foldable iPhone could launch later than the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max due to production difficulties, although Gurman previously stressed that the gap in launch timing would be minimal. Other iPhone Duo details in Gurman's report include the use of a new A20 Pro chip, Apple's C2 modem, dual 48-megapixel rear cameras, a 12-megapixel front camera, a magnetic hinge system and "support for the Apple Pencil stylus." Gurman said last week that Apple had tested a smaller version of the Apple Pencil for use with the foldable iPhone, but said that a launch was unlikely. Today's last-minute report includes a few other details on the ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ and Pro Max, as well as Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 models and AirPods 5 models. While most of the details on those products had previously been rumored, Gurman notably says that the ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ and Pro Max will see $100 price increases compared to their current equivalents, a smaller increase than some had feared. Apple's "Surprise and Shine" event kicks off at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time tomorrow, and we'll have full coverage throughout our MacRumors channels.Related Roundup: iPhone FoldTags: Bloomberg, Foldable iPhone, Mark GurmanThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Apple Likely to Announce Beats 360 This Month | MacRumors
Apple Likely to Announce Beats 360 This Month
Apple today released a firmware update (4A203) for its upcoming Beats 360 headphones, suggesting that a launch is approaching. With the firmware now available, it seems likely that Apple will announce the Beats 360 at some point in September. Beats 360 have already leaked across multiple regulatory databases and retail listings over the past several months, and soccer stars like Lamine Yamal and Antonee Robinson were spotted wearing them around the 2026 FIFA World Cup. MacRumors was first to report on the Beats 360 name last month after the headphones appeared in various retail listings on Amazon and other reseller websites, some of which have since been removed. The listings revealed that the headphones will be available in Black, Cloud, Sky, and Pink, at a minimum. There will also be interchangeable Performance Knit and UltraPlush ear cushions and headbands that come in those same four colors, plus extra options like Volt and Navy, allowing you to create your own personalized look. Beats 360 have a unique design with some similarities to the AirPods Max, including telescoping headband arms that smoothly extend and stay in place to maintain the desired fit. One of the product listings said the over-ear headphones offer up to 1.75× more noise cancellation than the Beats Studio Pro that came out in 2023. The listing also said that the Beats 360 are Apple's first-ever sweat-resistant and water-resistant over-ear headphones, with an IPX4 rating. Other features and specs mentioned in the listing included all-day battery life, a fold-flat design, and a high-fidelity acoustic platform. According to code uncovered by MacRumors contributor Aaron Perris, the Beats 360 will support hands-free Siri, meaning that you can say "Hey Siri" or simply "Siri" to activate the assistant. Beats 360 will come with a set of interchangeable Performance Knit cushions and a woven ripstop fabric carrying case, but customers will need to supply their own USB-C charging cable and power adapter. One listing said the headphones will be priced at $299.99 in the U.S., but we cannot confirm if that information is accurate. Beats Studio Pro are regularly priced at $349.99. It is unclear exactly when Apple plans to officially unveil the Beats 360, but with all of these leaks across regulatory databases, athlete teasers, retail listings, and firmware updates, an announcement this month seems likely.Tags: Beats, Beats 360This article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

How to Watch Apple's 'Surprise and Shine' September 9 Event
Apple is hosting an online streaming event for the public and press on Wednesday, September 9 at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time. The company is expected to announce new iPhone 18 Pro models and a new foldable iPhone alongside new Apple Watch models, and potentially AirPods 5 and other products during the event, dubbed "Sunshine and Shine." Here's how you can watch it and when, wherever you are in the world. There are multiple ways to watch the September 9 event, with details listed below.

Apple Event Tomorrow: iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone Ultra Cheat Sheet | MacRumors
Apple Event Tomorrow: iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone Ultra Cheat Sheet
Apple's biggest event of the year is almost here, and all eyes are on Cupertino. With the first foldable iPhone expected to headline Apple's "Surprise and Shine" event on Wednesday, September 9, at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time, the rumor mill has been running full throttle, fuelled by the biggest single design change in the life of the iPhone. To get you up to speed, here's a quick reference guide to the rumoured upgrades, expected prices, and possible pre-order/release dates of everything we're expecting to see tomorrow. Rumors by Model iPhone 18 Pro / Pro Max Similar overall design to the iPhone 17 Pro models, with a more uniform finish across the aluminum and glass back. Smaller Dynamic Island, said to be achieved by Apple moving some Face ID components beneath the screen. More efficient LTPO+ displays. A20 Pro chip manufactured using TSMC's 2nm process. 12GB of RAM and 256GB starting storage. Variable-aperture main camera for greater control over light and background blur – although reports disagree on whether this will be exclusive to the Pro Max. Possible Samsung image sensor for improved image quality and camera responsiveness. Simplified Camera Control button that retains pressure sensing but removes the capacitive layer. Larger battery in the Pro Max, which could well result in a slightly thicker and heavier body. Possible Apple C2 modem, although U.S. models could retain Qualcomm modems for mmWave support. The strongest color rumors include Dark Cherry, Light Blue, and Silver. Other rumors have suggested no Silver, and a black finish has also been suggested. iPhone Ultra (Foldable) Apple's first folding iPhone, with "iPhone Ultra" among the rumored names, with "iPhone Fold" and "iPhone Duo" remaining outlying possibilities. Book-style design with an approximately 5.5-inch outer display and 7.8-inch inner display. Chassis measuring just 4.5mm thick when unfolded. Liquid-metal hinge and an extremely inconspicuous – but not completely invisible – display crease. Touch ID integrated into the Side button in lieu of Face ID. Wide and Ultra Wide rear cameras, plus selfie cameras on both the outer and inner displays. A20 Pro chip and an expected 12GB of RAM. MagSafe charging support. iPad-like multitasking, including side-by-side apps. Silver/white and a very dark indigo finish among the rumored colors. Apple Watch Series 12 Familiar design, with no major change to the case expected. Faster S12 chip and improvements to health and fitness tracking. Possible return of a ceramic case, with white and dark gray versions reportedly tested. Continuous heart-rate monitoring throughout the day among the features Apple is testing, along with a new "Readiness" app. More wellness metrics through revamped Health and Fitness experiences. Apple Watch Ultra 4 Similar design to the Apple Watch Ultra 3. Faster S12 chip and related health and fitness improvements. Likely continuous heart-rate collection if the Series 12 gets it. Possible expansion of satellite capabilities, including Apple Maps and photo sharing in Messages. AirPods 5 (Possible) Two versions expected, with and without active noise cancellation. Possible H3 chip for better sound quality and lower latency. iPhone 18 (Regular) The regular iPhone 18 is not expected to feature tomorrow. Apple is reportedly moving that model's launch to spring 2027, when the iPhone 18e and iPhone Air 2 are also expected to debut as part of a new split-year release schedule. iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone Ultra Pricing Expectations Higher memory costs could push up prices for both Pro models this year. Based on TrendForce's forecasts for the Pro models and Bloomberg's latest reporting on the foldable, the possible U.S. starting prices are: Model Estimated Starting Price iPhone 18 Pro $1,249–$1,299 iPhone 18 Pro Max $1,349–$1,399 iPhone Ultra $2,199 (rumored) Remember that these are estimates, with the Pro figures representing possible prices sourced from TrendForce's projected increases. That said, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman today also reported that Apple has discussed a $2,199 starting price for the foldable, with some upgraded storage configurations potentially approaching $3,000. Reliable figures for every storage tier are not available. When Can I Pre-order iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone Ultra? iPhone 18 Pro pre-orders could begin on Saturday, September 12, at midnight Pacific Time / 3 a.m. Eastern Time. The potential Saturday opening would avoid September 11, similar to Apple's approach in 2015. The foldable's schedule is less certain, with some reports of manufacturing challenges potentially delaying a release until the fourth quarter of 2026. However, Gurman has said he would be "very surprised" if the foldable iPhone does not come out at the same time as the iPhone 18 Pro models or "very close" to them. When Do iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone Ultra Launch? Friday, September 18 is the most likely release date for the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max. It's our best educated guess, but we believe that is when deliveries and retail availability will begin. As already mentioned, reports remain divided on the foldable's launch schedule. There's still a possibility that its unveiling tomorrow may precede its arrival in stores by several weeks or more.

Apple Watch SE 3 is Suddenly Unavailable
All configurations of the Apple Watch SE 3 are suddenly "unavailable" on Apple's online store in the U.S. and other countries we checked, for reasons unknown. Apple is holding an event this Wednesday to announce new iPhones and Apple Watches, but an Apple Watch SE 4 was not expected tomorrow, as new generations of the Apple Watch SE have never been released in back-to-back years. The original Apple Watch SE debuted in September 2020, the Apple Watch SE 2 arrived in September 2022, and the Apple Watch SE 3 was announced in September 2025. Is this a sign that an Apple Watch SE 4 will be announced tomorrow after all, or is this simply a temporary issue that will be resolved soon? We shall see.

Apple to Introduce All-New 'Readiness' App Tomorrow | MacRumors
Apple to Introduce All-New 'Readiness' App Tomorrow
Apple plans to announce an all-new "Readiness" app during its "Surprise and Shine" event this Wednesday, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. In a social media post today, Gurman said the "Readiness" app will be a "variant" of the existing Vitals app on the Apple Watch. "The idea is to better compete with software from Whoop and Oura," he said. For example, Oura's smart rings offer a daily "Readiness Score" from 0 to 100 that shows how prepared your body is for the day. Introduced on watchOS 11, the Vitals app consolidates your key health metrics, including your average heart rate, respiratory rate, blood oxygen, wrist temperature, and sleep duration from the previous night. Based on many of the same metrics, the Readiness app would likely show you how recovered your body is for activity. Evidence of the "Readiness" app in watchOS 27 beta code was already discovered a few days ago by a MacRumors forum member known as "pdfu." The app will be unveiled alongside the Apple Watch Series 12 and Apple Watch Ultra 4. Gurman previously reported that both of these new models will feature continuous heart rate sensing, regardless of whether you are actively exercising.Tag: Mark GurmanThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Apple Sued Over Alleged Face ID Patent Infringement | MacRumors
Apple Sued Over Alleged Face ID Patent Infringement
TrinamiX, a subsidiary of the German chemical giant BASF, is suing Apple in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas, accusing the company of infringing seven patents related to face authentication technology used in Face ID. In its complaint, first reported by Reuters, trinamiX said it spent years developing technology to stop people from fooling face unlock systems with a photo, a fake mask, or a silicone copy of someone's face. The complaint says Apple's original version of ‌Face ID‌, introduced with the iPhone X in 2017, did not use trinamiX's technology, but that newer iPhones and iPads do. TrinamiX's system is designed to tell real skin apart from things like photos or masks, essentially adding a check that catches fakes conventional optical face scanning methods would miss. The complaint alleges that "Apple knew or should have known of the high probability that updating its iPhones and iPads to incorporate ‌Face ID‌ using material and skin detection" infringed seven trinamiX patents, causing "substantial damages and irreparable injury." The seven patents cover two areas: detecting skin during face unlock and identifying what material something is made of. TrinamiX names a broad swath of Apple devices as accused products, including the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max, iPhone 16, iPhone 16e, ‌iPhone 16‌ Plus, ‌iPhone 16‌ Pro, ‌iPhone 16‌ Pro Max, iPhone 17, iPhone 17e, iPhone 17 Pro, ‌iPhone 17 Pro‌ Max, iPhone Air, 11-inch iPad Pro (4th generation), 12.9-inch ‌iPad Pro‌ (6th generation), and the 11- and 13-inch ‌iPad Pro‌ models with the M4 and M5 chips. TrinamiX is asking the court to find that Apple infringed its patents, to block Apple from making, using, selling, offering for sale, or importing the accused products, and to award damages and attorneys' fees. The company has requested a jury trial. The full complaint is available via IP Fray.Tags: Face ID, Apple Lawsuits, Patent LawsuitsThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Apple Acquires Startup Working on 'Breakthrough Sensing Technology' | MacRumors
Apple Acquires Startup Working on 'Breakthrough Sensing Technology'
Earlier this year, Apple acquired California-based startup Sonera, according to a notice published today on the European Commission's website. Sonera previously announced that it had developed "breakthrough sensing technology" that "non-invasively measures magnetic fields" generated by the brain and body. The company said its technology can analyze neural data without direct skin contact, giving it an advantage over traditional electrical sensing techniques. "This proprietary technology holds the key to making brain activity as easy to measure as heart rate, temperature, and other physiological signals," said Sonera, in a 2023 press release. The company said its technology was "poised to enable an entirely new class of consumer wearables and experiences based on muscle activity." Sonera said it had developed a biomagnetic chip that would enable use cases such as "advanced prosthetics control, continuous monitoring of neuromuscular conditions, discovery of disease biomarkers, and sport performance tracking," so this acquisition could pave the way for future Apple Watch health and accessibility features.Tag: Apple AcquisitionThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Foldable iPhone Development History and Price Revealed in New Report | MacRumors
Foldable iPhone Development History and Price Revealed in New Report
Former Apple CEO Tim Cook played a major role in the development of the foldable iPhone, which could reach around $3,000 with storage upgrades, according to new details shared by Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. Early in the development of the foldable iPhone, the company reportedly targeted a starting retail price of $1,999, hoping to come under the "potentially controversial $2,000 barrier." The idea was to replicate the debut of the iPhone X in 2017, which started at $999. Amid the impact of the global memory shortage, Apple is said to have recently discussed pricing the foldable at $2,199. Some storage configurations could approach $3,000. While the company anticipates some "sticker shock" for consumers, the willingness of customers to spend around $2,000 on iPhone models with upgraded storage convinced the company that an "upscale foldable device was worth bringing to market." Gurman also revealed details about the history of the foldable iPhone inside Apple. Around 2020, Cook apparently returned from a visit to Asia "unusually energized" about foldable phones. During the trip, he saw growing numbers of consumers using foldable devices from the likes of Samsung and Huawei. He came to believe that Apple needed an equivalent offering in the market and pushed the company to accelerate its development efforts. Apple's hardware engineering team had been studying foldable phones, displays, and related components for years, dating back to well before the launch of the first Galaxy Fold device in 2019. Before Cook's guidance, the project was mired by debates over the form that an Apple foldable should take, with one early concept being an iPad mini that could unfold into a larger tablet. Cook wanted the final device to be more mainstream in the form of a foldable iPhone, and his level of involvement in the project was unusual. The project was conceived under Dan Riccio, who preceded John Ternus as head of hardware engineering. The company apparently prioritized resolving four main challenges: reducing the visibility of the display crease, improving hinge reliability, creating a new flexible cover glass for the inner display, and developing under-display camera technology. The company eventually settled on a hinge system made using titanium and aluminum and custom cover glass developed with Corning. Despite being less durable than other existing iPhone models, Apple is said to believe that the construction quality of the foldable iPhone is industry-leading for the foldable market, and thinks it has an advantage over Android devices in terms of software. Gurman restated several of the device's rumored specifications, including a 7.8-inch inner display, a 5.5-inch outer display, and a wide form-factor design. During development, Apple designers apparently compared the folded proportions of the device to a passport and the unfolded proportions to a Magic Trackpad. The short-and-wide design was chosen to provide a point of differentiation with rival foldable and generate consumer interest. He reiterated that the foldable iPhone may be less durable than a conventional iPhone, with an inferior camera system and less battery life. Despite these drawbacks, Apple employees are said to believe "the company will sell every foldable phone it can produce." Gurman also noted that the foldable iPhone's engineering complexity "makes it an ideal showcase" for new CEO John Ternus, following his career as Apple's hardware chief. Ternus was apparently a major champion of the device and played a major role to "push it over the finish line," alongside Cook. Apple's foldable iPhone is expected to be announced tomorrow at its "Surprise and shine" event.

iPhone Ultra Touch ID 'Confirmed' in iOS 27? Not So Fast | MacRumors
iPhone Ultra Touch ID 'Confirmed' in iOS 27? Not So Fast
Apple's iPhone Ultra is widely expected to feature Touch ID instead of Face ID, but references found in the iOS 27 beta probably shouldn't be treated as proof. Code explorer pdfu has found Car Key strings linking an iPhone with both Ultra Wideband and Touch ID, which they say "confirms" Touch ID for the foldable since "all existing iPhone models with an UWB chip, starting with iPhone 11, use Face ID." But Apple's codebase often has Touch ID references that aren't tied to specific hardware. Legacy terminology can also linger for years, with references to discontinued products like iPod still appearing in recent iOS code. So while Touch ID is expected, this detail doesn't confirm it.Related Roundups: iOS 27, iPadOS 27Tag: iPhone UltraThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

2024 vs. 2026 Mac Mini Buyer's Guide | MacRumors
2024 vs. 2026 Mac Mini Buyer's Guide
Last month, Apple announced a new Mac mini built around the all-new M6 chip and the M5 Pro, replacing the M4 and M4 Pro models that had been on sale since October 2024. Pre-orders are open now, with the machines arriving to customers and in stores on September 22. The M6 model starts at $899 and the M5 Pro model at $1,699, each $100 above what its predecessor was selling for by the end of its run and $300 above what their predecessors launched at. The ‌Mac mini‌ rose from $599 to $799 in May, and the M4 Pro configuration went from $1,399 to $1,599 in June, both as a consequence of the memory shortage driven by AI demand. Education pricing brings the new models down to $799 and $1,599 respectively. What Changed Across Both Models A number of upgrades apply equally to the standard and Pro configurations, regardless of which chip you choose: ‌Mac mini‌ (2024) ‌Mac mini‌ (2026) Neural Accelerators in each GPU core Variable refresh rate and HDR support Wi-Fi 6E connectivity Wi-Fi 7 connectivity Apple N1 wireless networking chip Bluetooth 5.3 Bluetooth 6 Thread networking technology Gigabit Ethernet or 10Gb Ethernet 2.5Gb Ethernet or 10Gb Ethernet Genlock support over USB-C Mac Mini With M4 vs. M6 Here is everything else that differs between the M4 and M6 versions of the ‌Mac mini‌: ‌Mac mini‌ (M4) ‌Mac mini‌ (M6) M4 chip M6 chip 10-core CPU with four performance cores and six efficiency cores 12-core CPU with two super cores, four performance cores, and six efficiency cores 10-core GPU 12-core GPU 16-core Neural Engine Dual 16-core Neural Engine 120GB/s memory bandwidth 153GB/s memory bandwidth, rising to 170GB/s with 32GB of unified memory Two displays up to 6K at 60Hz, plus a third up to 5K at 60Hz Two displays up to 6K at 60Hz or 4K at 165Hz, plus a third up to 5K at 60Hz Up to two external displays over a single Thunderbolt port Now discontinued From $899 Mac Mini With M4 Pro vs. M5 Pro The comparison below outlines the remaining differences between the two Pro configurations: ‌Mac mini‌ (M4 Pro) ‌Mac mini‌ (M5 Pro) M4 Pro chip M5 Pro chip Base: 12-core CPU with eight performance cores and four efficiency cores Configurable to: 14-core CPU Base: 15-core CPU with five super cores and 10 performance cores Configurable to: 18-core CPU Enhanced shader core and third-generation ray tracing 273GB/s memory bandwidth 307GB/s memory bandwidth Three displays up to 6K at 60Hz Three displays up to 6K at 60Hz or 4K at 165Hz Two displays: one up to 8K at 60Hz or 4K at 240Hz, plus a second up to 6K at 60Hz Two displays: one up to 8K at 60Hz, 5K at 120Hz, or 4K at 240Hz, plus a second up to 5K at 120Hz or 4K at 200Hz Up to three external displays over a single Thunderbolt port Now discontinued From $1,699 How Much Faster Is It, Really? The latest refresh is minor for ordinary work and significant for AI workflows. Against the M4, Apple claims 40% faster CPU performance and 2x faster graphics, which is a normal generational step, alongside unusually large gains of up to 4x faster AI performance and up to 4.8x faster prompt processing in LM Studio. Almost all of the engineering appears to have gone into AI optimization, in the form of Neural Accelerators built into every GPU core for the first time on the ‌Mac mini‌ and a Neural Engine doubled to two 16-core units. The M5 Pro follows the same pattern, at up to 4x faster than the M4 Pro for prompt processing but only 1.4x faster for ray-traced rendering in Blender. Display support is the one significant change beyond the chips. Both models add 4K at 165Hz and variable refresh rate, which the 2024 machines never supported, and the M5 Pro can drive a second display at 5K at 120Hz where the M4 Pro capped it at 6K at 60Hz. If you own a high refresh rate monitor, this is perhaps the most noticeable difference in the entire update. It is worth noting that Apple's figure of up to 170GB/s for the M6 only applies to the 32GB configuration. The 16GB and 24GB models run at 153GB/s, so the gain over the M4's 120GB/s is around 28% for most buyers rather than the 42% implied. Bandwidth governs how fast a model's weights move out of memory, which makes the 32GB configuration a faster machine. The memory ceilings are also not the increases they appear to be. The M4 shipped with a 32GB option and the M4 Pro with 64GB when they launched in October 2024, and Apple removed both in May as memory prices climbed. The new models restore those ceilings rather than raising them, so a 32GB M4 or 64GB M4 Pro already has the same ceiling as its 2026 equivalent. Which to Choose? If you own a 2024 ‌Mac mini‌ and do not run AI models on it, skip this generation. A 40% CPU improvement is not something you will notice in daily use, and nothing else meaningful about the machine has changed. The exception is display support: if you have a high refresh rate monitor stuck at 60Hz, that is a real problem the new models solve and the old ones never will. If you do run models locally, the upgrade is easy to justify from an M4, but more difficult from an M4 Pro. Roughly 4x faster prompt processing changes what you can attempt. From an M4 Pro you get unchanged GPU core counts, a 12% bandwidth increase, and a $300 rise over what you paid, so wait for the next year's revision unless you specifically need to upgrade to a 64GB model. For new buyers, the gap between the two 2026 models is wider than the $800 price difference suggests: the M5 Pro has 80% more memory bandwidth, double the memory ceiling, and 50% more CPU cores at the top. Since tools like LM Studio and Ollama run on the GPU rather than the Neural Engine, capacity and bandwidth are what matter. Memory capacity decides which models you can load at all, while bandwidth determines how fast they run. If your models fit in 32GB, buy the M6 at $899. If they do not, the M5 Pro is your only option here. The 2024 models remain worth considering even though Apple has stopped selling them new, with availability via third parties, Apple's refurbished store, or second-hand. Do not expect prices to collapse in the usual way, whichever route you take. The memory shortage pushed Apple's prices up, twice during the M4's final year, so a modest discount off $799 is unremarkable. The M4 model is worth buying nearer the $599 it launched at, and much above that, the stretch to buy a new M6 is difficult to argue against. The 32GB M4 and 64GB M4 Pro were only sold between October 2024 and May 2026, so they exist on the used market but were unavailable new for the machine's final months. A 64GB M4 Pro matches the memory ceiling of a $1,699 M5 Pro at 273GB/s against 307GB/s, for considerably less. For running larger models on a budget, that may be the most cost-effective configuration. The new ‌Mac mini‌ is available to pre-order now, with deliveries and in-store availability beginning on Tuesday, September 22.Related Roundup: Mac miniBuyer's Guide: Mac Mini (Buy Now)Related Forum: Mac miniThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Foldable 'iPhone Ultra' May Launch Later in China, Says Leaker | MacRumors
Foldable 'iPhone Ultra' May Launch Later in China, Says Leaker
Apple's foldable "iPhone Ultra" may launch in mainland China later than in some other markets, according to an oft-reliable Chinese leaker. Posting on the Weibo social media platform, Instant Digital said that Apple has a limited initial inventory for its first foldable device, and the rollout could be shaped by regional allocation. The claim follows a recent report out of Japan suggesting that Apple was struggling to produce more than a few hundred units a day in late August because of the company's stringent quality control standards. Apple has reportedly ordered around 10 million units of the foldable for this year, but hinge and display durability tests are said to be taking longer than expected. The leaker's warning today also echoes an earlier report out of Australia, which suggested that the foldable iPhone could face a staggered country-by-country launch over several months, with initial availability limited to the U.S. market. On the other hand, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman has said he would be "very surprised" if the foldable iPhone does not come out at the same time as the iPhone 18 Pro models or "very close" to them. "Either on the same launch date, a dual launch, or coming out within weeks later," he said in an interview with Tom's Guide. "This idea of a late October, November launch, massive delays, supply chain issues, I don't believe to be the case," he added. To the best of our knowledge, Gurman has not commented on the claim that the device could see a staggered market-by-market launch, similar to the Vision Pro in 2024. We should know more about Apple's launch plans for the foldable iPhone on Wednesday, September 9, when the company is expected to unveil the device alongside the iPhone 18 Pro models. Stay tuned to MacRumors for all the latest news and updates.Related Roundup: iPhone FoldTags: China, Foldable iPhone, Instant Digital, iPhone UltraThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

iPhone Air 2 Could Replace iPhone 18, Sketchy Rumor Claims | MacRumors
iPhone Air 2 Could Replace iPhone 18, Sketchy Rumor Claims
Apple may be considering scrapping the standard iPhone 18 entirely and rebranding the iPhone Air 2 as its new $999 entry point when the more affordable iPhone models launch in spring 2027, a sketchy rumor claims. The claim comes from the X account "Early Apple," who said Apple is "exploring the idea" of having the Air 2 simply take over the ‌iPhone 18‌ name and price point rather than launching as a separate device. This would be a major break from how the two devices have been described up to now. Over a year's worth of rumors have consistently portrayed the standard ‌iPhone 18‌, the iPhone 18e, and the Air 2 as three separate devices set to launch together next spring, following the iPhone 18 Pro models and Apple's first foldable iPhone arriving later this month. Given how firmly that three way split has held up in the rumor cycle so far, a rebrand this drastic looks unlikely for 2027. We have covered leaks from the account before, including an alleged ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ prototype photo back in April, but as we noted at the time, Early Apple is a relatively new account of unknown origin with no established track record, so the claim is best treated as an informed guess. The rumor has gained some traction online, so we have covered it for the sake of completeness. The broader idea isn't entirely new, though. Other observers such as leaker Jon Prosser raised a similar possibility months ago, suggesting Apple's ultra-thin design could eventually become the template for the standard iPhone rather than remaining a separate niche model, framing it as a longer term shift rather than something arriving as soon as next spring. There is a reasonable case for some convergence over time, even if next year is too soon. Apple has a history of debuting design features on pricier models before trickling down to the standard iPhone in later years, and with the ‌iPhone Air‌ 2 expected to close the gap by adding a second rear camera, one of the biggest practical differences between the Air and the standard iPhone would disappear. That makes it plausible that a future standard iPhone could eventually resemble the Air, even if an outright merger during the upcoming product cycle remains a stretch. Apple is expected to announce the ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌, ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ Max, and its first foldable iPhone tomorrow, with the standard ‌iPhone 18‌, iPhone 18e, and Air 2 following in spring 2027.Related Roundups: iPhone 18, iPhone AirBuyer's Guide: iPhone Air (Neutral)Related Forum: iPhoneThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Five iPhone 18 Pro Camera Features Seemingly Leak in Code | MacRumors
Five iPhone 18 Pro Camera Features Seemingly Leak in Code
Apple is working on a broader set of Camera app improvements in iOS 27 it has announced, according to a new deep dive from MacRumors forum member "pdfu." ‌iOS 27‌ beta code apparently points to five features that could arrive alongside new iPhone models this week or in a future software update: Exposure scopes: The Camera app can display a waveform or histogram to help judge exposure while shooting. A histogram shows how much of the image is too dark, too bright, or in between, while a waveform shows similar information but keeps it lined up with where those areas are in the frame. Focus peaking and highlight warnings: New code overlays helpful information right on top of the camera preview. Focus peaking highlights the edges of whatever's in sharp focus using a colored outline, while a separate overlay warns when part of the image is getting overexposed, using a solid color, a pulsing color, diagonal stripes, or a checkerboard pattern. Repeated self-timer shots: Apple is adding the ability to take several timed photos in a row rather than just one. After each shot, the countdown starts again right away instead of waiting for the photo to finish saving, so the shots can be taken back to back. Manual focus: A control for manually setting and locking focus, rather than relying on autofocus, has also turned up in testing, similar to what's already available in Apple's Final Cut Camera app. A version of this existed in iOS 26 with a focus slider, but that slider was removed in ‌iOS 27‌ beta 1. The underlying focus-locking code is still there, but Apple has restricted it to devices that ship with ‌iOS 27‌ or later, so it won't work on any current iPhone. Aperture-based image correction: A change to how photos are processed could be tied to a future iPhone with a variable aperture, a lens opening that can widen or narrow rather than staying fixed. ‌iOS 27‌ can adjust lens corrections depending on the aperture setting, blending between up to four reference points to smooth out the results. Although the hidden features could be made available to other iPhone models, the presence of aperture-based image correction when the iPhone 18 Pro is widely expected to offer a variable aperture main camera suggests that at least some of the capabilities could arrive with the new models. None of the five features are accessible to users in the current betas, and Apple could still hold some or all of them back from the September release. The findings follow pdfu's recent code discoveries covering unreleased game controllers, a four-speaker HomePod surround system, and new Apple Watch details.Related Roundups: iOS 27, iPadOS 27, iPhone 18 ProThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Leak Hints at Four New Features for Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 | MacRumors
Leak Hints at Four New Features for Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4
Ahead of the announcement of the Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 later this week, code in the watchOS 27 and iOS 27 betas points to a series of new features for the product line. The information comes from a new post from MacRumors forums member "pdfu." The findings include: New "Readiness" app: An all-new separate Watch app referred to in code as "Readiness," distinct from the existing Vitals app. The ‌watchOS 27‌ launcher apparently includes it in the default Home Screen layout immediately after the Workout app, and the Watch companion app on ‌iOS 27‌ references the same app in its logic for arranging apps on the ‌Home Screen‌. Its name and placement next to the Workout app suggest Apple is preparing a more substantial readiness or recovery experience for the Apple Watch. Richer strength workouts: Expanded health infrastructure to store individual sets, repetition counts, weight, equipment, body side, and duration. New optical-sensing system: A new sensor family called "Sunstone4p0" with lower noise coefficients, and wrist- and orientation-based channel selection. This could point to revised heart-sensing hardware on an upcoming Apple Watch, featuring improved readings when the reflected pulse signal is weak and specialized sensing according to the watch's placement. 128GB storage: A NAND storage profile tied to the T8320 chip for the Apple Watch Series 12 and Apple Watch Ultra 4 suggesting that they could offer 128GB of storage, up from 64GB on previous models. Bloomberg's Mark Gurman previously reported that the Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 will tout new health and fitness features. pdfu has emerged as an intriguing source of code discoveries in recent weeks. The forum member previously spotted references to two unreleased game controllers in the first macOS 26.7 release candidate, identified by the internal names T6502 and T1057, and separately found evidence in audioOS 27 beta 8 pointing to a four-speaker HomePod surround sound system and a new "Party Mode" feature.

Xiaomi Announces Foldable iPhone Rival | MacRumors
Xiaomi Announces Foldable iPhone Rival
Xiaomi today officially announced the 18 Fold, its first wide-format foldable, at a product event in China, two days before Apple is expected to unveil its own first foldable iPhone. The Xiaomi 18 Fold uses a similar wide-folding design to the Samsung Z Fold8 and Apple's upcoming foldable iPhone. It features a 5.38-inch outer display and a 7.58-inch inner display, both with 120Hz LTPO technology and 4000 nits of peak brightness. The display is protected by a new double-layer ultra-thin glass structure. The phone folds around a redesigned hinge Xiaomi calls the "Dragon Bone" hinge, which the company says underwent 492 structural optimizations, facilitating a noticeably more rounded design than Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold8. It launches in four finishes, including a Nishino Red colorway and a limited Ceramic Special Edition capped at 1,500 units. The 18 Fold is the first flagship to contain Xiaomi's in-house Xring O3 chip, built using a 3nm process with a 10-core CPU clocked to 4.35GHz and a 16-core GPU. Xiaomi says the chip delivers a 60% multi-core CPU gain and an 85% GPU performance gain over its predecessor, with power draw down 25% and 64% respectively, alongside a dedicated NPU rated at 200 TOPS. The rear camera system was developed with Leica and is led by a 200-megapixel main sensor, alongside a 50-megapixel ultrawide and a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto lens with 3.5x optical zoom. Apple's first foldable iPhone is expected to feature two rear cameras only, with no dedicated telephoto camera. The device ships with Xiaomi's HyperOS 4 software and a 6,000mAh battery supporting 67W wired and 50W wireless charging. Pricing starts at 10,999 yuan (approximately $1,638), for the base 12GB RAM and 256GB storage configuration, rising to 14,999 yuan (approximately $2,235) for the top 16GB/1TB model, with a limited Ceramic Special Edition at 15,999 yuan (approximately $2,384). Apple's foldable is widely expected to be priced above $2,000. Xiaomi also introduced the Xiaomi Pad 9 Pro Max tablet at the event, which shares the Xring O3 chip, along with three electric vehicles under its Pengcheng brand. The company has not announced global availability for the 18 Fold; its earlier Mix Fold foldables have stayed exclusive to China. Apple is set to hold its own event on September 9 at Apple Park, where the company is expected to unveil its first foldable iPhone alongside the iPhone 18 Pro and ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ Max.Related Roundup: iPhone FoldTags: Foldable iPhone, XiaomiThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

iPhone 18 Pro Event Could Hit Apple Shares, KeyBanc Warns | MacRumors
iPhone 18 Pro Event Could Hit Apple Shares, KeyBanc Warns
Apple's September 9 iPhone announcement event could become a negative catalyst for the stock, KeyBanc Capital Markets warns. In a research note seen by Investing.com, KeyBanc said the event could motivate investors to weigh pricing decisions against the impact of higher costs on demand and margins. KeyBanc added that Apple faces a choice to either raise prices broadly to offset gross margin pressure, which could hurt unit volumes and trigger "sticker shock," or raise prices more selectively. This could invite greater scrutiny of margins and raise the prospect of further price increases later down the line. The firm maintained an "Underweight" rating on Apple and a $250 price target, against a share price of $324.96 at the time of publication. KeyBanc models total iPhone 18 lineup builds at around 80 million units across the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 and first quarter of fiscal 2027, down from roughly 91 million units a year earlier. The firm attributed most of the decline to the absence of a base ‌iPhone 18‌ model in this part of the product cycle, with higher pricing and a richer product mix expected to partially offset the lower volumes. KeyBanc is also expecting a $150 price increase for the iPhone 18 Pro, raising it to $1,249, and a $200 increase for the ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ Max, raising it to $1,399. The firm expects the foldable "iPhone Ultra" to start at $2,199. KeyBanc also pointed to a historical pattern of Apple shares weakening around iPhone announcements, with the stock averaging a 0.72% decline on announcement day over the past five years and a 1.22% decline five trading days later.

Upcoming changes to Rosetta support for Intel-based macOS apps | ADC Headlines
Upcoming changes to Rosetta support for Intel-based macOS apps
In 2020, we introduced Apple silicon for Mac computers, providing Rosetta as a translation layer during the transition period. As announced at WWDC last year, we’re now concluding this transition.What this means for developers who have macOS apps: macOS 26.4 or later: Users may receive a system notification when launching apps that rely on Rosetta, alerting them to update to an Apple silicon native version. macOS 27: Final release to support Rosetta — Intel-only apps will no longer run on Mac computers with Apple silicon after this update. Please note that Rosetta functionality for older, unmaintained gaming titles that rely on Intel-based frameworks will continue to be supported.What you need to do:To ensure your apps remain available and your users aren't interrupted by system notifications, add Apple silicon support to your apps now. If you haven’t updated your app yet: Begin the transition immediately. Build and distribute your app as a universal binary, which runs natively on both Apple silicon and Intel-based Mac computers. Optimize your app for Apple siliconPort your macOS apps to Apple siliconVisit the Apple Developer Forums If you already offer an Apple silicon version: Reach out to your users directly. Encourage them to download and install your latest native version to avoid the notifications on macOS 26.4 or later and ensure the app runs when macOS 27 ships this fall.

“The impact was the biggest surprise“: Swiggy’s transition to native pays off | ADC Headlines
“The impact was the biggest surprise“: Swiggy’s transition to native pays off
Swiggy began as a humble food delivery service. Today, it’s India’s leading on-demand convenience platform, one that offers everything from groceries via Instamart to restaurant bookings via Dineout. And since 2024, it’s been powered by native tools that create seamless mobile experiences for an audience that numbers in the millions. We caught up with Swiggy’s iOS development team to discuss performance metrics, proactive technology adoption, and the surprising ways transitioning to native tools impacted design.When did you begin the process of transitioning to native apps?Agam Mahajan, senior engineering manager: We’ve always built Swiggy Food natively, but Instamart and Dineout started as hybrid experiences. As these businesses scaled rapidly, we began to see clear limitations in performance and stability. That's when, in early 2024, we made the decision to transition them to native apps, using a combination of Swift and SwiftUI.What was the first step to going native?Mahajan: The first step was identifying high-impact journeys rather than attempting a full rewrite. We started with the Instamart and Dineout home and search experiences, where most customer interactions happen, and rebuilt them as native experiences implemented in Swift and SwiftUI. We then followed a phased approach: we shipped our first native experiences within weeks and completed the broader transition.Why was it important to your team to move to native platforms?Tushar Tayal, assistant vice president: As Instamart scaled, we started seeing issues like high page load times, app hangs on large SKU lists, memory pressure, and inconsistent animations. On Dineout, we found that rich restaurant content — high-quality images and videos — was also constrained in a hybrid setup. We were also limited in leveraging the latest native capabilities, like advanced animations through Core Animation and newer platform innovations such as Apple Intelligence.At an organizational level, we also wanted to bring all our experiences — Swiggy Food, Instamart, and Dineout — under a unified design system. In quick commerce and discovery, every second counts and every interaction matters. We needed tighter control over performance, reliability, and rendering. Moving to native allowed us to deliver faster, smoother, and more immersive experiences at scale.“Moving to native allowed us to deliver faster, smoother, and more immersive experiences at scale,” says Swiggy Assistant Vice President Tushar Tayal.What early benefits did you notice?Priyam Dutta, engineer: People immediately experienced noticeably faster load times, smoother scrolling, and more fluid animations. The app felt more responsive and reliable, especially on older devices, where the difference was most pronounced.At the same time, moving to native helped us bring greater design consistency across Swiggy Food, Instamart, and Dineout, and made it easier to reuse components, delivering a more cohesive experience across business lines. It also unlocked new use cases by leveraging native iOS capabilities. We introduced features like OCR for Dineout menu search, which improved conversions, and grocery list scanning for Instamart. With Apple Intelligence, we were able to build experiences like item summarization and comparison, making discovery faster and more intuitive.What have you heard from your community?Dutta: Response has been very positive. We observed improvements in engagement, completion rates, and app ratings — clear signals that people could feel the performance gains. We also saw people organically calling out the improved experience on social media, which reinforced that the changes were both noticeable and meaningful.What's been the most surprising thing to come out of this process?Shashwat KN, engineer: Honestly, the impact was the biggest surprise. We expected improvements in latency, performance, and crash rates. What stood out was the downstream effect on business metrics. We saw a meaningful uptick in conversion and a reduction in bounce rates, showing that performance improvements translated directly into better outcomes.Another unexpected outcome was how it unlocked creativity across teams. Designers started pushing more engaging and complex experiences, knowing they could rely on native capabilities. The Swiggy team brought apps like Instamart under a unified design system. ”In quick commerce and discovery, every second counts and every interaction matters,” says Tayal.What challenges did you encounter?Aviral Garg, engineer: One of the key challenges was balancing speed with long-term architectural decisions. Early on, we leaned toward ideal implementations, which slowed execution. We corrected course by prioritizing iterative delivery, building scalable systems while still moving fast.Ensuring feature parity during the transition was another challenge. We had to continue shipping new features in parallel while migrating, which required clear ownership and careful coordination between hybrid and native systems.Design was also interesting. We initially replicated the existing UI in native, but later pivoted to adopting native design patterns with minor adjustments, improving reusability, accelerating development, and still preserving core functionality.Read more developer storiesDeveloper stories explore best practices and philosophies from some of the most inventive developers in the Apple community.

Vulnerability Summary for the Week of August 31, 2026 | US-CERT Alerts
Vulnerability Summary for the Week of August 31, 2026
High Vulnerabilities PrimaryVendor -- Product Description Published CVSS Score Source Info 1Hive--gardens-v2 Gardens v2 is a modular governance framework that enables communities to create and manage multiple governance pools with customizable parameters and voting mechanisms. In 3e595f3 and prior, when a streaming proposal is funded, the cluster of streaming contracts moves real pool funds into the proposal's StreamingEscrow to back the Superfluid constant flow agreement (the CFA deposit, plus a 0.5 percent margin). cancelProposal then zeroes the escrow's GDA member units but never reclaims that parked balance, and the permissionless claim() forwards the escrow's entire balance, including the pool funded buffer, to the beneficiary. The beneficiary is chosen by the proposal submitter and defaults to the submitter. The only path that returns escrow funds to the pool is drainToStrategy, which is onlyStrategy and is reached solely from the dispute reject ruling, never from cancel or natural completion. At time of publication, there are no publicly known patches. 2026-09-03 7.7 CVE-2026-55658 : Shane Bishop--EWWW Image Optimizer Unauthenticated Cross Site Scripting (XSS) in EWWW Image Optimizer = 9.1.0 and before 9.3.4 decide whether to run path-scoped middleware by matching against the raw request target, while the Fastify router resolves an absolute-form request target to its path before dispatching. Because the two layers evaluate different strings, a request using an absolute-form target reaches the route handler while the path-scoped middleware, such as authentication or authorization, is skipped. An unauthenticated network attacker can use this to bypass path-based access controls in a Fastify application that relies on middie for those controls. Users should upgrade to @fastify/middie 9.3.4 or later. 2026-09-04 9.1 CVE-2026-85184 aaif-goose--goose goose 1.37.0 executes arbitrary commands from recipe stdio extensions and retry.checks without security inspection. Attackers can distribute malicious recipes that execute shell commands as the user running goose, bypassing the recipe security scan which does not inspect extensions or retry configurations. 2026-09-04 8.8 CVE-2026-85623 Acato--Email Essentials Unauthenticated Cross Site Scripting (XSS) in Email Essentials = 5.0.0-RC1 and < 5.10.11 contain a missing authorization vulnerability in AssetsController::actionReplaceFile. When a request supplies sourceAssetId and targetFilename but omits assetId, the target asset is resolved by folder and filename after the permission checks execute, so the replacePeerFiles permission is never enforced. An authenticated low-privilege author with only the replaceFiles permission on a shared folder can overwrite the content of a peer's asset file (located in the same folder) with attacker-controlled bytes. Fixed in 5.10.11. 2026-09-02 7.1 CVE-2026-84800 crcn--sift.js sift (sift.js) 17.1.3 enumerates query keys with for...in, which walks the object prototype chain, and dispatches any matched operator key including $where. The $where operation compiles a string value into a function using new Function unless CSP_ENABLED is set (not set by default). As a result, if a prototype-pollution primitive elsewhere in the process sets Object.prototype.$where to a malicious string, even benign filter calls such as sift({}) execute arbitrary JavaScript. Additionally, passing an untrusted query object containing a string $where directly to sift results in code execution under the default configuration. 2026-09-04 8.1 CVE-2026-85625 crmeb--CRMEB CRMEB contains an authentication bypass vulnerability in the verifyAuth() method of SystemRoleServices.php that returns true from both conditional branches. Sub-administrators and accounts with no roles can access restricted admin endpoints by exploiting the inert role check that always permits requests. 2026-09-03 8.3 CVE-2026-85212 crystaldba--postgres-mcp Postgres MCP Pro 0.3.0 contains a restricted-mode bypass vulnerability where function-name validation is not applied to RangeFunction nodes in FROM clauses.

An authenticated user with limited privileges could potentially exploit this vulnerability to bypass access restrictions and gain escalated privileges. 2026-09-01 8.8 CVE-2026-79686 Developer Tools--Developer Tools The Developer Tools WordPress plugin through 1.1.3 contains an unauthenticated arbitrary file upload vulnerability in the bundled SWFUpload component 2026-09-02 9.8 CVE-2025-9314 devitemsllc--Support Genix Helpdesk, AI Chatbot, Knowledge Base & Customer Support Ticketing System The Support Genix - Helpdesk, AI Chatbot, Knowledge Base & Customer Support Ticketing System plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass leading to Administrator Account Takeover in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.52 via the `guest_ticket_login()` function and its `p` parameter. This is due to the site-wide AES-256-CBC encryption key being derived from only three two-digit `wp_rand(10, 99)` values and a Unix timestamp via `md5()` - yielding approximately 19.5 bits of entropy - combined with a deterministic IV derived from the password, no authentication tag on the ciphertext, and no capability check, nonce, or session validation on the publicly reachable `/sgnix/?p=` endpoint. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, who can obtain a single legitimate guest ticket token as a known-plaintext oracle and bound the plugin activation timestamp, to exhaust the ~729,000-candidate keyspace entirely offline, recover the site-wide encryption key, and forge a self-consistent `{ticket_id, ticket_user}` token targeting any administrator-owned ticket. Submitting the forged token to the unprotected endpoint causes `wp_set_auth_cookie()` to be called for that administrator, granting the attacker full administrative access to the WordPress site. 2026-09-01 8.8 CVE-2026-19806 devtron-labs--devtron Devtron through 2.2.0 fails to enforce authorization checks on the GET /orchestrator/api-token/webhook endpoint, allowing authenticated users to retrieve admin API tokens. Attackers with any authenticated account can query the endpoint with arbitrary project, environment, and application parameters to retrieve plaintext super-admin JWT tokens for full platform control. 2026-08-31 8.8 CVE-2026-82882 dianping--cat CAT uses Java String.hashCode as the sole integrity check for session cookies without server-side keying, allowing attackers to forge valid checksums offline. Attackers can set the x-forwarded-for header to bypass IP binding validation and create admin sessions with full configuration access. 2026-09-03 9.8 CVE-2026-85181 digitalbazaar--forge node-forge through 1.4.0 fails to validate element count in nested DigestAlgorithm sequences during RSA PKCS#1 v1.5 signature verification. Attackers can embed garbage bytes inside the DigestAlgorithm sequence to forge valid signatures for arbitrary messages using low-exponent RSA keys. This is an incomplete fix for CVE-2026-33894. 2026-09-03 7.5 CVE-2026-85393 Divi Engine--Divi Ajax Filter The Divi Ajax Filter plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in all versions up to, and including, 5.1.2 via the 'custom_loop_template' parameter parameter. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to include and execute arbitrary .php files on the server, allowing the execution of any PHP code in those files. This can be used to bypass access controls, obtain sensitive data, or achieve code execution in cases where .php file types can be uploaded and included. This vulnerability is only exploitable when the loop_templates parameter is set to 'custom-template'. 2026-09-04 9.8 CVE-2026-11613 DocsGPT--DocsGPT In DocsGPT 0.15.0 and below, the application provides a custom prompt feature that allows users to define prompt content used during chatbot interactions. This functionality renders user-supplied prompt data using Jinja templates without input sanitization or sandboxing. An unauthenticated attacker can inject malicious template expressions, leading to a server-side template injection (SSTI) vulnerability that can be exploited to achieve full remote code execution (RCE). 2026-09-04 9.8 CVE-2026-31020 Dokploy--Dokploy A vulnerability was detected in Dokploy up to 0.29.7. This issue affects the function writeTraefikConfigInPath of the file packages/server/src/utils/traefik/application.ts of the component Settings. The manipulation of the argument path results in path traversal. The attack can be launched remotely. The exploit is now public and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way. 2026-08-31 9.9 CVE-2026-82954 domainaware--parsedmarc parsedmarc before 11.0.1 decompresses gzip and ZIP attachments in a single unbounded read with no limit on decompressed output size. Because parsedmarc automatically processes incoming DMARC report emails without user interaction, an unauthenticated remote attacker can send a crafted email with a highly compressed attachment to the monitored mailbox, causing the parsedmarc process to allocate memory proportional to the uncompressed size and exhaust available RAM. 2026-09-03 7.5 CVE-2026-82520 Dotstore--WooCommerce Product Attachment Unauthenticated Sensitive Data Exposure in WooCommerce Product Attachment = 4.0.0 and before 5.12.2 can route a malformed URL sent under one plugin prefix to the custom not-found handler of a different sibling plugin, and invoke it without the preHandler hook declared for that handler. The internal not-found router for encapsulated handlers dispatches malformed paths through a single shared handler pointer before URL decoding, ignoring the prefix and skipping the selected handler's normal lifecycle. An unauthenticated attacker can therefore reach an authentication-protected private fallback through an unrelated public prefix and read its full response, bypassing the authentication hook and breaking prefix encapsulation. Users should upgrade to fastify 5.12.2 or later. 2026-09-04 7.5 CVE-2026-76169 fastify--fastify fastify versions before 5.12.2 implement the case-insensitive nature of HTTP header names by lowercasing names in a route's header schema before compiling it, but the transformation is incomplete: it lowercases the properties keys and the root-level required array, and does not lowercase the trigger and dependent names inside the JSON Schema Draft 7 dependencies keyword. Because Node stores request header names in lowercase, a canonical-case dependency such as requiring an authentication header whenever a privileged-mode header is present never matches, and the presence assertion is silently skipped. An unauthenticated remote client can therefore send the header that activates a privileged branch while omitting the header the dependency was meant to require, bypassing the conditional check. Users should upgrade to fastify 5.12.2 or later. 2026-09-04 7.5 CVE-2026-84428 fastify--fastify fastify versions before 5.12.2 decide whether to compile a request schema based on JavaScript truthiness, but JSON Schema Draft 7 defines the boolean false as a valid schema that rejects every instance. When an application assigns false to a route's body, querystring, params, or headers schema to deny all input, fastify treats it as a missing schema, compiles no validator, and runs the route handler on any request. An unauthenticated remote client can therefore reach a handler that a valid deny-all schema was intended to make unreachable, a complete validation bypass that can lead to unauthorized state changes or execution of disabled operations. Users should upgrade to fastify 5.12.2 or later. 2026-09-04 7.5 CVE-2026-84469 firecrawl--firecrawl-mcp-server firecrawl-mcp-server 3.20.2 contains an arbitrary local file read vulnerability in the firecrawl_parse tool that accepts unconstrained filePath arguments without directory containment validation. Attackers can supply absolute paths or directory traversal sequences to read sensitive files like credentials and environment variables, which are then uploaded and returned to the model context. 2026-09-04 7.5 CVE-2026-85606 FreeIPMI--FreeIPMI FreeIPMI before 1.6.19 has a stack-based buffer overflow in _ipmi_sel_oem_fujitsu_get_sel_entry_long_text in libfreeipmi/sel/ipmi-sel-string-fujitsu-irmc-common.c via malformed Fujitsu SEL long-text responses. 2026-09-04 9.8 CVE-2026-85504 FreeIPMI--FreeIPMI ipmi-oem in FreeIPMI before 1.6.19 has a stack-based buffer overflow in _get_dell_system_info_idrac_info in ipmi-oem/ipmi-oem-dell.c (idrac-info subcommand to dell get-system-info). 2026-09-04 9.8 CVE-2026-85506 FreeIPMI--FreeIPMI ipmi-oem in FreeIPMI before 1.6.19 has a stack-based buffer overflow in _output_dell_system_info_cmc_info in ipmi-oem/ipmi-oem-dell.c (cmc-info subcommand to dell get-system-info). 2026-09-04 9.8 CVE-2026-85507 FreeIPMI--FreeIPMI ipmi-oem in FreeIPMI before 1.6.19 has a stack-based buffer overflow in _output_dell_system_info_cmc_ipv6_info in ipmi-oem/ipmi-oem-dell.c (cmc-ipv6-info subcommand to dell get-system-info). 2026-09-04 9.8 CVE-2026-85508 FreeIPMI--FreeIPMI FreeIPMI before 1.6.19 has a stack-based buffer overflow in _read_fru_data in libfreeipmi/fru/ipmi-fru.c when a BMC returns more bytes than requested. 2026-09-04 9.8 CVE-2026-85509 FreeIPMI--FreeIPMI ipmi-oem in FreeIPMI before 1.6.19 has a stack-based buffer over-read in ipmi_oem_fujitsu_get_sel_entry_long_text in ipmi-oem/ipmi-oem-fujitsu.c when a BMC provides a short response, a different vulnerability than CVE-2026-50031 (which has different affected versions). 2026-09-04 7.5 CVE-2026-85505 fs-code--FS Poster - WordPress Social media Auto Poster & Scheduler [Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest] The FS-Poster plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in versions up to and including 8.0.1. This is due to insufficient input sanitization of the FFmpeg path parameter before passing it to the exec() function, combined with missing authorization checks on the REST API endpoints. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying server. 2026-09-01 8.8 CVE-2026-10195 GastroMenum--GastroMenum Web Panel Observable response discrepancy vulnerability in GastroMenum GastroMenum Web Panel allows Account Footprinting. This issue affects GastroMenum Web Panel: before 31.08.2026. 2026-09-04 7.5 CVE-2026-19205 geonetwork--core-geonetwork GeoNetwork is a catalog application to manage spatially referenced resources. Prior to versions 4.4.12 and 4.2.17, the Saxon XSLT processor used to render formatters is configured without secure processing (`FEATURE_SECURE_PROCESSING`) and without disabling Java extension functions (`ALLOW_EXTERNAL_FUNCTIONS`). Any stylesheet loaded by GeoNetwork can therefore invoke `java.lang.Runtime.exec()` or `java.lang.ProcessBuilder` directly, achieving arbitrary command execution as the GeoNetwork process user. A user with sufficient privileges to upload a formatter can deliver a `.xsl` file containing Java extension call that execute arbitrary OS commands with the privileges of the GeoNetwork process. The issue is patched in GeoNetwork versions 4.4.12 and 4.2.17. 2026-09-03 9.1 CVE-2026-58400 geonetwork--core-geonetwork GeoNetwork is a catalog application to manage spatially referenced resources. Prior to versions 4.4.12 and 4.2.17, the API endpoint for creating a new formatter via file upload is unprotected and allows the upload of external uncontrolled files. An unauthenticated attacker can upload arbitrary `.xsl` or `.zip` formatter files to the server. An unauthenticated attacker can write arbitrary files into the GeoNetwork formatter directory. On its own this constitutes unauthorized write access to server storage. The issue is patched in GeoNetwork versions 4.4.12 and 4.2.17. 2026-09-03 8.6 CVE-2026-63219 getgrav--grav Grav before 2.0.18 (affected versions sk_protocol without validating whether 'sk' represents a full socket. Fix this issue by checking sk- >sk_state != TCP_LISTEN before inspecting sk- >sk_protocol in both bpf_tcp_gen_syncookie and bpf_tcp_check_syncookie. Since mini-sockets are never in the TCP_LISTEN state, the condition short-circuits and prevents dereferencing fullsock-specific fields. 2026-09-03 7.3 CVE-2026-80738 Linux--Linux In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/log: Fix out-of-bounds read on empty message length drm_log_draw_kmsg_record() accesses s[len - 1] to strip the trailing newline, but len is unsigned int. If len is 0, the subtraction wraps to UINT_MAX, causing an out-of-bounds read. Add an early return when len is 0. 2026-09-03 7.1 CVE-2026-80741 Linux--Linux In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mmc: loongson2: Fix sg iteration in data reorder functions In ls2k0500_mmc_reorder_cmd_data() and ls2k2000_mmc_reorder_cmd_data(), the for_each_sg() macro already iterates over the scatterlist entries, with 'sg' pointing to the current entry. However, the code incorrectly uses '&sg[i]' and 'sg_dma_len(&sg[i])' inside the loop, which treats 'sg' as an array base and indexes it again, leading to access of wrong sg entries (or out-of-bounds if the list is not an array). 2026-09-03 7.8 CVE-2026-80748 Linux--Linux In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/connector/hdmi: Fix out of bounds memory read A helper function was copying a given audio infoframe into the connector's copy but using the size of the destination (a generic target, sized to accept many different data blocks) not the source (a very specific type of data block). Thus, it was copying 60 bytes of data from a 28 byte allocation. Fix that by using the source size instead, together with a build bug on the source size actually being smaller than the destination. I hit this running KUnit tests under KASAN (while debugging something else entirely). In the real world, it seems unlikely to cause an actual problem. It is a read not a write so it can't corrupt any memory. However, it could potentially fall off the end of a page and cause an accvio bug. 2026-09-03 7.1 CVE-2026-80749 Linux--Linux In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: pmdomain: mediatek: mfg: initialize prev_o in mtk_mfg_attach_dev() mtk_mfg_attach_dev() reads prev_o on the first iteration of its loop, in "if (prev_o && prev_o- >freq == o- >freq)", before prev_o is assigned at the end of the loop body. On that first iteration, evaluating prev_o reads an indeterminate value. If it is non-NULL, the condition dereferences a stale or invalid pointer, potentially faulting or incorrectly skipping the first OPP. Initialize prev_o to NULL. This matches the intent as well: there is no previous OPP to compare against on the first iteration. Found with Clang's -Wconditional-uninitialized. 2026-09-03 7.8 CVE-2026-80751 Linux--Linux In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Input: synaptics-rmi4 - fix F55 transmitter electrode count typo During F55 sensor detection, the transmitter (TX) electrode count was incorrectly assigned the value of the receiver (RX) electrode count due to copy-paste typos. This incorrect value was then propagated to the driver data and used by F54 to determine the diagnostics report size. On devices with more RX than TX electrodes, this inflated the perceived TX count, leading to incorrect report size calculations and potential out-of-bounds buffer accesses. Fix the typos by correctly assigning the TX electrode counts. 2026-09-03 7.8 CVE-2026-80754 LiquidThemes--Booking Hub Incorrect Privilege Assignment vulnerability in LiquidThemes Booking Hub allows Privilege Escalation. This issue affects Booking Hub: from n/a through 1.3.1. 2026-09-02 8.8 CVE-2026-81769 LiteSpeed Technologies--LiteSpeed Cache Unauthenticated Server Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in LiteSpeed Cache

Two Alleged ‘TeamPCP’ Hackers Arrested in Australia
Authorities in Australia have arrested two men believed to be members of TeamPCP, a prolific cybercrime and data extortion group blamed for perpetrating the longest running spree of software supply chain attacks ever. In a statement released today, the Australian Federal Police (AFP) said two unnamed suspects from Western Australia, aged 21 and 23, were arrested in connection with a "sophisticated cybercrime syndicate that allegedly created malicious open-source software to rob thousands of global businesses." The AFP did not name the defendants, but KrebsOnSecurity learned the 21-year-old suspect's real identity in June, and has been communicating with him ever since. This story includes interviews with TeamPCP's self-described spokesperson, and examines clues left behind by the TeamPCP leader that likely led to his undoing.
