App Store review is broken in a time where it is needed the most
Apple doesn't even seem to be trying with App Store Review. Users should not be the ones who find problem apps, but over and over, that is what is happening.The App Store could soon feature Ai-generated summaries of application reviews.No question, Apple has the resources to protect us from bad apps, and, no question, it keeps telling regulators that it has. As regulators around the world press for third-party firms to run iPhone App Stores, Apple consistently protests that only it can do a good job of keeping bad apps at bay.It is absolutely true that if, or when, the door is open to rival App Stores, there will be a flood of apps that set out to defraud users. But if you're going to hold up the App Store Review process as the last thin line of defense, you have to make it work and Apple is repeatedly failing.

Will the iPhone Ultra avoid the issue that can still kill Samsung foldables?
The very first Samsung Galaxy Fold launched back in 2019 proved so vulnerable to screen damage by dust and dirt ingress that the company cancelled all pre-orders for the device. Eight generations later, we’re today learning that the issue still hasn’t been fixed. Ensuring that the iPhone Ultra did not share this vulnerability has reportedly been one of the reasons Apple waited so long before launching its own folding phone.

Apple’s revolving door continues to spin, with more big-name exec changes
Macworld Apple is a large and wealthy company which employs roughly 166,000 people, so a fair amount of staff turnover is to be expected. What’s striking about the past couple of years, however, has been the number of employees leaving high-profile roles at Apple Park. Last December, Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman discussed what he called Apple’s “biggest personnel shake-up in decades,” listing 18 big-name departures that had either happened that year or were expected to happen soon. By February, the situation had become so noticeable that CEO Tim Cook was moved to comment, sagely observing that “when people get to a certain age, some are going to retire. This is kind of a natural thing,” and insisting that the departures had been carefully orchestrated. Whether planned or not, the high-profile personnel changes keep coming, with two more emerging this week. First, Apple internally announced the retirement of Jennifer Bailey, who has been at the company for more than two decades, most recently as head of Pay and Wallet services. In an article revealing the move, Gurman claimed Bailey’s exit “is seen as a major loss within Apple, according to people with knowledge of the move” and that staff fears it will “presage a broader exodus of senior leaders in their 60s.” Bailey will retire in October, although services boss Eddy Cue (current age: 61) insists she will continue in an advisory role and that a succession plan will be announced nearer the time. The current lack of a succession plan (or disinclination to reveal one) hints that this departure was less orchestrated, but there may be other factors we don’t know about. Second, and more positively, it was announced (again by Mark Gurman at Bloomberg) that Apple is hiring a new head of government affairs. Nate Gatten, formerly an exec at American Airlines, will take on this “delicate role,” for which his Republican ties are likely to be seen as an advantage. A big-name signing is a win, of course, but there are complications. For one thing, this is connected to another retirement: legal chief Katherine Adams is leaving at the same time as Jennifer Bailey, and she currently serves in a similar but lower-profile role of senior VP of government affairs. For another, the need for a full-time head of government affairs reflects the murky political waters Apple currently has to navigate. Some pundits (including this one) have speculated that this year’s biggest personnel change–Tim Cook stepping down as CEO–will see the current boss spend more time liaising with the White House, but even Cupertino’s most famous workaholic may not be able to handle the workload on his own. Finally, Gurman reported last week that incoming CEO John Ternus will be rehiring Laura Legros, who served as a vice president of hardware engineering until she retired in 2022. Legros will assume a vice president role, “working cross-functionally with different parts of the company,” according to the report. Legros was one of Ternus’ “most trusted deputies,” Gurman reports. In 2018, she appeared during an Apple event in New York to introduce an updated MacBook Air and was also front and center for the iPad Air design, two important products in Apple’s recent history.

How to tune your AirPods with a custom EQ in iOS 27
Macworld It’s a table-stakes feature for almost all headphones, but for some reason Apple has resisted adding it to AirPods. Until now. With iOS 27, Apple is adding a simple equalizer to its AirPods controls, after years of user complaints. Here’s how to use it. How to find and use the custom EQ for AirPods With your AirPods connected to your iPhone, enabling and adjusting the custom EQ is simple once you know where to look. Open the Settings app. Tap your AirPods name at the top of the screen. Select Audio and Routing. Tap Equalizer and then select Custom. Foundry The EQ is a very simple three-band adjustment that only lets you increase or decrease the lows, mids, and highs. But if you find your new AirPods are too bass-heavy or that your hearing needs a little help with bright high frequencies, it gets the job done. This is a new iOS 27 feature and requires you to run both iOS 27 and have a related firmware update to your AirPods. If you’re using the beta, you’ll need to enable Beta Updates for your AirPods. To do this, open Settings, tap your AirPods name, then scroll to the bottom and select AirPods Beta Updates. Make sure Beta Updates is enabled, then put your AirPods back in the case and plug them in to charge. It can sometimes take hours or more for new firmware to be delivered to your AirPods, and there’s not much you can do to make it go faster. You’ll need firmware newer than 8B41. The first beta firmware to support this feature was 9A292e.

Apple TV has lost the plot
Macworld The Apple TV 4K has long been cord-cutters’ go-to set-top box due to its ad-free experience, fluid performance, superior app quality, and much more. Apple had been offering the 3rd-generation model for a tantalizing starting price of $129, with the maxed-out Ethernet variant going for $149. While there have always been cheaper options, at those prices, it was hard not to recommend Apple TV to anyone looking for a standalone set-top box.  However, following a significant price increase and stagnant innovation, this device has rapidly lost its appeal—making it challenging for newcomers to justify buying an Apple TV 4K. And from what the rumors say, it doesn’t look like the new model will make it much more compelling. Make it make cents Perhaps the Apple TV 4K 3’s biggest con is its updated, illogical pricing. The entry-level model now costs $199 while the pricier one sells (or doesn’t) for a whopping $249—a 67 percent increase and the most expensive it’s ever been. While it’s understandable to see iPad and Mac price hikes due to the memory crisis, the set-top box is four years old and packs a five-year-old A15 Bionic chip with just 4GB of RAM. It’s neither new nor powerful enough to justify such a crazy price bump. For comparison, Google’s TV Streamer costs just $99, and there are a ton of more affordable TV sticks from Roku, Amazon, and others that get the job done for a fraction of the price. Unlike personal computing devices, smart TVs don’t heavily revolve around essential ecosystem integrations and personal data sync. Most users exclusively rely on them to download streaming apps like YouTube, Netflix, Spotify, and Hulu. These services typically share the same main UI across different smart TV platforms and let you quickly sign in with any smartphone by simply scanning a QR code. While nice to have, a pretty interface and the Apple ecosystem tie-in won’t be worth it for many budget-conscious iPhone users, especially when the app’s already on their other devices. Siri-ous setbacks In the age of AI, smart assistants are expected to be baked into all of our everyday devices. Despite costing 50 percent less than Apple TV 4K, Google’s TV Streamer has managed to port the Gemini experience, letting users control their big screens via speech, ask complex questions, and more. Amazon Fire TVs similarly offer an Alexa integration to assist viewers with various tasks. When tvOS 27 arrives, Apple TV 4K will still ahve the old Siri.Foundry The latest Apple TV 4K, on the other hand, is still plagued by the outdated Siri, which can barely answer any meaningful questions or get anything done. It’s true that Apple Intelligence and the overhauled Siri AI require at least 8GB of RAM on iPhones, iPads, and Macs, but that didn’t not stop Apple from bringing Siri AI to 2023’s Apple Watch Series 9 with the S9 chip. Granted, it needs an iPhone nearby, but it’s safe to assume nearly every Apple TV 4K will also have an iPhone connected to the same network. Furthermore, the Apple TV 4K won’t need to generate Genmoji or index emails, messages, and documents, so it shouldn’t need as much memory as an iPhone. tvOS could’ve at least adopted the more conversational Siri with world knowledge and ChatGPT integration, as it heavily relies on cloud processing anyway and isn’t locally demanding. Its omission sends the wrong message to anyone who has or may be looking to buy an Apple TV 4K. Playing games The Siri exclusion would’ve been more tolerable had tvOS 27 introduced other noteworthy features that keep users engaged. Alas, tvOS was barely mentioned at WWDC, with its main highlights including AutoMix for Apple Music, a redesigned Podcasts app, and other minor enhancements. In fact, even Apple’s own OS 27 preview webpage fails to include a tvOS section. Adding the lack of AI and the dramatic price hike into the mix makes it hard to recommend the Apple TV 4K to customers. You can play games on your Apple TV 4K, but it’s a far cry from a gaming machine.Foundry Instead, Apple could’ve promoted gaming on tvOS 27 by building a native Steam Link alternative. The Apple TV 4K already supports PlayStation, Xbox, and MFi-certified controllers, letting users quickly pair and customize them. Its game library, however, is too underwhelming due to the processing constraints and the platform’s unpopularity among serious console gamers and game developers. Letting Mac gamers seamlessly access their titles—beyond Steam games—on Apple TV 4K could contribute to its unique selling points. Apple TV 4K would become an entertainment hub that houses movies, music, games, and more. Alternatively, Apple could’ve introduced an Xbox Cloud Gaming rival service on tvOS, eliminating the need for a nearby Mac and enabling any user to run demanding AAA games using the tiny box. Such a move would’ve potentially increased its subscription service revenue, too. Eye on the future The Apple TV 4K 4 is rumored to launch this fall, packing the A17 Pro chipset. This will reportedly allow Siri AI on tvOS and introduce significant performance gains. Whether Apple will come up with innovative ways to harness the power of the A17 Pro and unlock its full potential—through heavier gaming or otherwise—is yet to be seen, but most reports suggest this will be a minor update with few additional features. Will Siri be at the center of the new Apple TV 4K?Foundry Regardless, time is running out. Unless the company makes fundamental changes to the set-top box’s direction, software, and use cases, Siri AI won’t be enough to justify the marked-up pricing. Plus, the millions of people who already own an Apple TV will be stuck with the old Siri until they pay to upgrade to a model that’s pricier than the one they own. With the more capable HomePad home hub likely coming soon, Apple needs to make a decision about Apple TV. Because a chip-and-ship upgrade after four years isn’t going to cut it. Not at these prices.

This $20 AirPods Pro upgrade will save you from buying a new pair
Macworld Get these $20 Comply foam eartips for AirPods Pro Learn more (function () { document.querySelector("#sticky-promo-block a").addEventListener("click", function(e) { const debug = document.location.host.search(/lndo.site|go-vip.net/) !== -1; const text = this.closest("#sticky-promo-block").querySelector("p.promo-title").textContent; const data = { event: "stickyConversionUnitClick", eventCategory: "Sticky Conversion", eventAction: "Click", eventLabel: text }; if(debug)console.log("Sticky Conversion CLick - pushing to dataLayer: ", data); dataLayer.push(data); return true; }); })(); This is not a sponsored post. I am not being paid to promote this product. But it transformed my experience of using my AirPods Pro 2 so much that I want you to know about it. Comply foam tips, which generally sell for around $20 on Amazon, make my AirPods Pro more comfortable, more secure, and better-sounding. They’re so good that Apple did something similar with AirPods Pro 3. I’ve used both, and I can report that if your main reason for upgrading is the fit of your AirPods Pro, don’t bother. Just get these $20 tips, as I wrote in my review: “While [the AirPods Pro 3 tips] still look and act more-or-less like the familiar silicone flanges, there’s enough foam buried inside to create the same snug and comfortable fit I’m used to with the aftermarket tips.” Apple knows that people have different ears, which is why it offers several AirPods Pro ear tips for different ear shapes. But before AIrPods Pro 3, they were just hollow silicone flanges, which isn’t ideal for all ears. Comply (and a few other companies) saw the issue and decided to make really excellent replacement tips that are made of memory foam. They attach just like Apple tips—just pop off the ones on your AirPods Pro and snap on the foam tips in their place. They fit as securely as the AirPods Pro’s ear tips and don’t interfere with their fit in the charging case. The memory foam shapes to the contours of your ear and is denser than that little silicone flap, so it forms a better seal. This slightly improves sound quality (especially on the low end) and is better at blocking out more outside noise, which in turn makes active noise canceling more effective. These little foam replacement tips are a huge improvement to my AirPods Pro 2.Foundry But they’re also more comfortable to wear for long periods and help the earbuds stay in place, which is a frequent problem for me—with Apple’s AirPods Pro 1 and 2 eartips, no matter which size I choose, one or both earbuds eventually work themselves loose if I’m doing something active like yard work or working out at the gym. With the Comply foam tips, they never come loose. The tips come in sets of three pairs. At first, you buy a set where you get one small, medium, and large pair. Once you’ve found your size, you can buy three of the same size when you need a new set. Which brings us to the downside of these tips: You need to replace them after a few months of daily wear as the memory foam eventually starts to break down and wear out. So it’s good that you get three pairs. You can get them in a few different colors too, which adds a nice bit of flair to the plain white AirPods Pro. One set of $20 ear tips will last for a year or so of daily use. It’s a small price to pay to give your AirPods Pro a more secure and fit and better sound. If your AirPods Pro aren’t entirely comfortable, give them a chance—you’ll never want to use your AirPods Pro without them again.

Vulnerability Summary for the Week of July 27, 2026
High Vulnerabilities PrimaryVendor -- Product Description Published CVSS Score Source Info @fastify/rate-limit--@fastify/rate-limit @fastify/rate-limit before 11.2.0 keys rate-limit buckets by the verbatim client IP string returned from request.ip. Because a single IPv6 client can control a large address range (a /64 holds 2^64 distinct addresses) and the same address has multiple valid textual representations, an IPv6 capable client can defeat the rate-limit boundary by rotating addresses or by rewriting the same address in different forms.

The issue is fixed in @fastify/rate-limit 11.2.0, where the default key generator normalizes IPv6 addresses to their canonical form, collapses IPv4 mapped IPv6 to IPv4, and applies a configurable prefix mask (default /64) via a new ipv6Subnet option. 2026-07-29 7.3 CVE-2026-15144 acacode--swagger-typescript-api swagger-typescript-api generates API clients for Fetch or Axios from an OpenAPI Specification.

Once the handler drops conns_lock, a concurrent close() - > smc_release() - > smc_conn_free() - > smc_lgr_unregister_conn() can drop that reference and free the smc_sock, so the handler's later sock_hold() runs on freed memory: WARNING: lib/refcount.c:25 at refcount_warn_saturate Workqueue: rxe_wq do_work refcount_warn_saturate (lib/refcount.c:25) smc_cdc_msg_recv (net/smc/smc_cdc.c:430) smc_cdc_rx_handler (net/smc/smc_cdc.c:502) smc_wr_rx_tasklet_fn (net/smc/smc_wr.c:445) tasklet_action_common (kernel/softirq.c:938) handle_softirqs (kernel/softirq.c:622) Kernel panic - not syncing: panic_on_warn set Only SMC-R is affected.

The value is echoed to the peer in the Cookie Preservative of the reply INIT, leaking uninitialized memory. sctp_sf_cookie_echoed_err() already walks to the STALE_COOKIE cause, so check its length there and pass it to sctp_sf_do_5_2_6_stale(), which reads that cause instead of the first one. A STALE_COOKIE cause too short to hold the staleness field is discarded. The read is reachable by any peer that can drive an association into COOKIE_ECHOED, including an unprivileged process using a raw SCTP socket in a user and network namespace. 2026-07-27 9.1 CVE-2026-64551 Linux--Linux In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB reads in is_ap_in_tkip() IE loop The loop in is_ap_in_tkip() iterates over IEs without verifying that enough bytes remain before dereferencing the IE header or its payload: - pIE- >element_id and pIE- >length are read without checking that i + sizeof(*pIE) data + 12, which requires pIE- >length >= 16.

That length is only bounded by GL_MAX_PACKET_LEN (1514); it is never compared against how many bytes were actually received. A malicious GeneLink (GL620A) device can therefore send a short URB whose header claims packet_count > 1 and a first packet of up to 1514 bytes. skb_put_data(gl_skb, packet- >packet_data, size); then copies past the end of the receive buffer and hands the adjacent slab contents up the network stack, an out-of-bounds read that leaks kernel heap.

That is still too loose: add_recvbuf_big() sets sg[1] to start at offset sizeof(struct padded_vnet_hdr) into the first page, so the chain actually carries hdr_len + (PAGE_SIZE - sizeof(padded_vnet_hdr)) + big_packets_num_skbfrags * PAGE_SIZE bytes -- 20 bytes less than the check allows for the common hdr_len == 12 case. A malicious virtio backend can announce a len in that gap. page_to_skb() then walks one frag past the page chain, storing a NULL page- >private into skb_shinfo()- >frags[MAX_SKB_FRAGS], which is both an out-of-bounds write past the static frag array and a NULL frag handed up the rx path.

For a cloned skb skb_checksum_help() reallocates the head via pskb_expand_head(), leaving prevhdr dangling. It is later dereferenced in ip6_frag_next(), causing a use-after-free write.

In the case of nested virtualization, vcpu_cpsr() is a synthetic value such that the rest of KVM can deal with vEL2 cleanly. That means the value requires translation before being written into hardware, which is unfortunately missing from the MOPS handler. Fix it by directly modifying SPSR_EL2 and avoiding the synthetic state altogether, which will be resynchronized on the next 'full' exit back to KVM. 2026-07-27 8.8 CVE-2026-64555 Linux--Linux In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: L2CAP: Fix use-after-free in l2cap_sock_new_connection_cb() l2cap_sock_new_connection_cb() returned l2cap_pi(sk)- >chan after release_sock(parent). Once the parent lock is dropped the newly enqueued child socket sk is reachable via the accept queue, so another task can accept and free it before the callback dereferences sk, resulting in a use-after-free. Rework the - >new_connection() op so the core, rather than the callback, owns the child channel's lifetime. The op now receives a pre-allocated new_chan and returns an errno instead of allocating and returning a channel. l2cap_new_connection() allocates the child channel and links it into the conn list via __l2cap_chan_add() before invoking the callback, so the conn-list reference keeps the channel alive once release_sock(parent) exposes the socket to other tasks. Channel configuration that was duplicated in l2cap_sock_init() and the various new_connection callbacks is consolidated into l2cap_chan_set_defaults(), which now inherits from the parent channel when one is supplied. 2026-07-29 8.8 CVE-2026-64557 Linux--Linux In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: openvswitch: reject oversized nested action attrs Open vSwitch stores generated flow actions as nlattrs, whose nla_len field is u16. Commit a1e64addf3ff ("net: openvswitch: remove misbehaving actions length check") allowed the total sw_flow_actions stream to grow beyond 64 KiB, which is valid, but also removed the last guard preventing a generated nested action attribute from exceeding U16_MAX. An oversized generated container can thus be closed with a truncated nla_len. A later dump or teardown then walks a structurally different stream than the one that was validated. In particular, an oversized nested CLONE/CT action may cause subsequent bytes in the generated stream to be interpreted as independent actions. Keep the larger total-action-stream behavior, but make nested action close reject generated containers that do not fit in nla_len, and return the error through all callers. For recursive SAMPLE, CLONE, DEC_TTL, and CHECK_PKT_LEN builders, trim resource-owning action-list tails in reverse construction order before discarding failed wrappers, so resources copied into the rejected tails are released before the wrappers are removed. Most failed outer wrappers are discarded by truncating actions_len after child resources have been released. CHECK_PKT_LEN also trims its parent after branch resources are gone. SET/TUNNEL close failures unwind their known tun_dst ownership directly, and SET_TO_MASKED has no external ownership and truncates on close failure. 2026-07-27 7.8 CVE-2026-64531 Linux--Linux In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fs/ntfs3: bound NTFS_DE view.data_off in UpdateRecordData{Root,Allocation} In do_action()'s UpdateRecordDataRoot (fslog.c:3489) and UpdateRecordDataAllocation (fslog.c:3697) cases, the memmove destination is `Add2Ptr(e, le16_to_cpu(e- >view.data_off))`, where e- >view.data_off comes from an on-disk NTFS_DE inside an INDEX_ROOT or INDEX_BUFFER. Neither case validates view.data_off + dlen against e- >size; the existing check_if_index_root / check_if_alloc_index helpers walk the entry chain and validate the entry's offset, but not its internal view fields. The neighbouring read sites (e.g., fs/ntfs3/index.c when iterating view entries) check view.data_off + view.data_size size. Apply the same bound at the two memmove sites. Reproduced under UML+KASAN on mainline 8d90b09e6741 via pr_warn-only probe instrumentation: with view.data_off forced to 0xFFFC, the memmove writes 32 bytes past the end of the NTFS_DE. This is similar in shape to Pavitra Jha's 2026-05-02 patch "fs/ntfs3: prevent oob in case UpdateRecordDataRoot" () which proposes calling ntfs3_bad_de_range(); that helper does not exist in mainline. This patch uses inline checks. 2026-07-27 7.8 CVE-2026-64532 Linux--Linux In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fs/ntfs3: validate lcns_follow in log_replay conversion log_replay() converts DIR_PAGE_ENTRY_32 records into DIR_PAGE_ENTRY records when replaying version 0 restart tables. During this conversion, the memmove() length is derived directly from the on-disk lcns_follow field: memmove(&dp- >vcn, &dp0- >vcn_low, 2 * sizeof(u64) + le32_to_cpu(dp- >lcns_follow) * sizeof(u64)); check_rstbl() validates restart table structure, but does not constrain per-entry lcns_follow values relative to the entry size. A malformed filesystem image can provide an oversized lcns_follow value, causing the conversion memmove() to access memory beyond the bounds of the allocated restart table buffer. The same field is later used to bound iteration over page_lcns[], so validating lcns_follow during conversion also prevents downstream out-of-bounds access from the same malformed metadata. Compute the maximum valid lcns_follow from the already-validated restart table entry size and reject entries that exceed this bound. Reuse the existing t16/t32 scratch variables already declared in log_replay() to avoid introducing new declarations.

It may prepend a 3-byte "Flags" AD structure (LE_AD_NO_BREDR on an LE-only controller) and then copies the per-instance data without checking that it still fits: memcpy(ptr, adv- >adv_data, adv- >adv_data_len); tlv_data_max_len() only reserves those 3 bytes when the user-supplied flags carry a managed-flags bit, so an instance added with flags == 0 is accepted with adv_data_len up to the full buffer.

The read then runs past the end of the exact-sized kmemdup()'d EDID allocation, a heap out-of-bounds read.

For top-level events, this removes the event from the context with DETACH_EXIT only. This can leave inconsistent group state when a removed event is a group leader and the group contains siblings without remove_on_exec. If the group was active, the surviving siblings can remain active and attached to the removed leader's sibling list, but are no longer represented by a valid group leader on the PMU context active lists. A later close of the removed leader uses DETACH_GROUP and can promote the still-active siblings from this stale group state. The next schedule-in can then add an already-linked active_list entry again, corrupting the PMU context active list. With DEBUG_LIST enabled, this is caught as a list_add double-add in merge_sched_in(). Fix this by detaching group relationships when remove_on_exec removes an event. This preserves the existing task-exit and revoke behavior, while ensuring surviving siblings are ungrouped before the removed event leaves the context. 2026-07-29 7.8 CVE-2026-64556 Linux--Linux In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: s390/pkey: Check length in pkey_pckmo handler implementation Explicitly check the length of the target buffer in the pkey_pckmo implementation of the key_to_protkey() handler function. The handler function fails, if the generated output data exceeds the length of the provided target buffer. 2026-07-29 7.8 CVE-2026-64558 Linux--Linux In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: s390/pkey: Check length in PKEY_VERIFYPROTK ioctl Explicitly check the buffer length request structure provided by user-space and fail, if it exceeds the buffer size. 2026-07-29 7.8 CVE-2026-64559 Linux--Linux In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: posix-cpu-timers: Prevent UAF caused by non-leader exec() race Wongi and Jungwoo decoded and reported a non-leader exec() related race which can result in an UAF: sys_timer_delete() exec() posix_cpu_timer_del() // Observes old leader p = pid_task(pid, pid_type); de_thread() switch_leader(); release_task(old_leader) __exit_signal(old_leader) sighand = lock(old_leader, sighand); posix_cpu_timers*_exit(); sighand = lock_task_sighand(p) unhash_task(old_leader); sh = lock(p, sighand) old_leader- >sighand = NULL; unlock(sighand); (p- >sighand == NULL) unlock(sh) return NULL; // Returns without action if(!sighand) return 0; free_posix_timer(); This is "harmless" unless the deleted timer was armed and enqueued in p- >signal because on exec() a TGID targeted timer is inherited. As sys_timer_delete() freed the underlying posix timer object run_posix_cpu_timers() or any timerqueue related add/delete operations on other timers will access the freed object's timerqueue node, which results in an UAF. There is a similar problem vs. posix_cpu_timer_set(). For regular posix timers it just transiently returns -ESRCH to user space, but for the use case in do_cpu_nanosleep() it's the same UAF just that the k_itimer is allocated on the stack. Also posix_cpu_timer_rearm() fails to rearm the timer, which means it stops to expire. While debating solutions Frederic pointed out another problem: posix_cpu_timer_del(tmr) __exit_signal(p) posix_cpu_timers*_exit(p); unhash_task(p); p- >sighand = NULL; sh = lock_task_sighand(p) sighand = p- >sighand; if (!sighand) return NULL; lock(sighand); if (!sh) WARN_ON_ONCE(timer_queued(tmr)); On weakly ordered architectures it is not guaranteed that posix_cpu_timer_del() will observe the stores in posix_cpu_timers*_exit() when p- >sighand is observed as NULL, which means the WARN() can be a false positive. Solve these issues by: 1) Changing the store in __exit_signal() to smp_store_release(). 2) Adding a smp_acquire__after_ctrl_dep() into the !sighand path of lock_task_sighand(). 3) Creating a helper function for looking up the task and locking sighand which does not return when sighand == NULL. Instead it retries the task lookup and only if that fails it gives up. 4) Using that helper in the three affected functions. #1/#2 ensures that the reader side which observes sighand == NULL also observes all preceeding stores, i.e. the stores in posix_cpu_timers*_exit() and the ones in unhash_task(). #3 ensures that the above described non-leader exec() situation is handled gracefully. When the task lookup returns the old leader, but sighand == NULL then it retries. In the non-leader exec() case the subsequent task lookup will observe the new leader due to #1/#2. In normal exit() scenarios the subsequent lookup fails. When the task lookup fails, the function also checks whether the timer is still enqueued and issues a warning if that's the case. Unfortunately there is nothing which can be done about it, but as the task is already not longer visible the timer should not be accessed anymore. This check also requires memory ordering, which is not provided when the first lookup fails. To achieve that the check is preceeded by a smp_rmb() which pairs with the smp_wmb() in write_seqlock() in __exit_signal(). That ensures that the stores in posix_cpu_timers*_exit() are visible. The history of the non-leader exec() issue goes back to the early days of posix CPU timers, which stored a pointer to the group leader task in the timer. That obviously fails when a non-leader exec() switches the leader. commit e0a70217107e ("posix-cpu-timers: workaround to suppress the problems with mt exec") added a temporary workaround for that in 2010 which surv ---truncated--- 2026-07-29 7.8 CVE-2026-64560 litestar-org--litestar Litestar is an Asynchronous Server Gateway Interface (ASGI) framework. Prior to version 2.20.0, Litestar instances which use a template engine in conjunction with CSRF protection are vulnerable to HTML Injection which can be escalated to Cross Site Scripting due to the contents of the CSRF cookie being excluded from automatic escaping by the template engine when configured inline with documentation recommendations. This issue has been patched in version 2.20.0. 2026-07-28 8.1 CVE-2026-48060 magepeopleteam--Booking and Rental Manager Unauthenticated Other Vulnerability Type in Booking and Rental Manager by(), so Laravel derived a constant cache key (md5('authentication')) shared by every request. An unauthenticated attacker sending roughly ten requests per minute from a single IP, most cheaply against the checkpoint endpoint (which has no reCAPTCHA), exhausts the shared counter and causes HTTP 429 for every user attempting to log in or complete two-factor authentication, a panel-wide authentication denial of service that also locks out administrators. This issue is fixed in version 1.13.0. 2026-07-28 7.5 CVE-2026-61609 pterodactyl--wings Wings is the server control plane for Pterodactyl, a free, open-source game server management panel. Prior to 1.12.3, {{config.}} placeholders in egg configuration-file templates allow a low-privileged user to read {{config.token}}, {{config.token_id}}, and {{config.docker.registries}} from the full daemon configuration. This issue is fixed in version 1.12.3. 2026-07-31 9.9 CVE-2026-52855 pterodactyl--wings Wings is the server control plane for Pterodactyl, a free, open-source game server management panel. Prior to 1.13.0, a malformed packet received during the SFTP connection handshake causes a Go panic. This issue is fixed in version 1.13.0. 2026-07-31 7.5 CVE-2026-52856 QuantumCloud--Simple Link Directory Pro Unauthenticated Server Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in Simple Link Directory Pro 'post'`, any author-level user who has authored a `wwp_requests` post - such as one created via the wholesale registration form - can access this nonce and submit the role-assignment request. 2026-07-29 8.8 CVE-2026-12144 savonrb--savon Savon is a Ruby SOAP client. From 0.9.8 until 2.17.2, Savon::Model .all_operations interpolates attacker-controlled WSDL operation names into Ruby source passed to module_eval, allowing Ruby code execution in the application process. This issue is fixed in version 2.17.2. 2026-07-31 8.1 CVE-2026-53510 Sender--Sender Newsletter, SMS and Email Marketing Automation for WooCommerce Administrator SQL Injection in Sender - Newsletter, SMS and Email Marketing Automation for WooCommerce subscribe() callback after it had already called params- >notify(conn, params, NULL, 0). Per the public GATT API, a notify callback with NULL data is the documented signal that the subscription has terminated and the bt_gatt_subscribe_params struct may be freed or reused by the application; calling subscribe() on the struct afterwards is a use-after-free, including an indirect call through the freed params- >subscribe function pointer. The error branch is remotely (adjacent) reachable: a Zephyr device acting as a GATT client that calls bt_gatt_subscribe() can be driven into this ordering when a connected GATT server peer answers the CCC write with an ATT Error Response (the peer-supplied error code flows through att_error_rsp - > att_handle_rsp into gatt_write_ccc_rsp). For applications that free or recycle subscription parameters in their notification-termination handler, this results in memory corruption, a crash (denial of service), or potentially attacker-influenced control flow. The fix reorders the handler so the subscribe() callback runs before the terminating notify(NULL) in both the error and unsubscribe paths. 2026-07-31 7.6 CVE-2026-10685 zephyrproject--zephyr The OCPP 1.6 client in subsys/net/lib/ocpp parsed inbound WAMP RPC frames in parse_rpc_msg() (subsys/net/lib/ocpp/ocpp_j.c) using a hand-rolled helper, extract_string_field(), that copied the message's uid and action fields with strncpy(out_buf, token + 1, outlen - 1) and then scanned the result with strchr(out_buf, '"'). Because strncpy does not NUL-terminate the destination when the source is at least outlen - 1 (127) bytes long, the subsequent strchr reads past the 128-byte destination buffer into adjacent stack memory; if a " byte is found beyond the buffer, a one-byte out-of-bounds NUL write also occurs. A related defect in extract_payload() runs strchr/strrchr over the receive buffer, which may not be NUL-terminated when a maximal-length frame fills it. The parsed bytes come directly from the OCPP central-system server over a websocket: the reader thread fills recv_buf via websocket_recv_msg() and calls parse_rpc_msg() on each inbound DATA frame (subsys/net/lib/ocpp/ocpp.c). A malicious or compromised central server, or an on-path attacker (OCPP is commonly deployed over plain ws://), can send an RPC frame whose uid or action field is 127+ bytes with no closing quote, triggering the out-of-bounds access. The primary impact is a remotely triggerable denial of service: the unbounded scan can fault on an unmapped page, and the stray NUL write can corrupt adjacent stack state. The over-read data is not reflected to the peer, so disclosure is limited. The feature is EXPERIMENTAL and must be explicitly enabled (CONFIG_OCPP). The fix replaces the manual parser with the bounds-respecting json_mixed_arr_parse() and copies the extracted uid with an explicitly NUL-terminated buffer, eliminating both over-reads. 2026-08-02 7 CVE-2026-10848 zip-lib--zip-lib Versions of the package zip-lib before 1.1.0 are vulnerable to Directory Traversal via the caching mechanism for path validation during the extraction process. An attacker can bypass security checks designed to prevent directory traversal. The intended security function, isOutsideTargetFolder, only checks and caches the path status when the initial directory symlink is created during the first extraction. 2026-07-28 7.5 CVE-2026-17524 Back to top Medium Vulnerabilities PrimaryVendor -- Product Description Published CVSS Score Source Info 100plugins--Open User Map Contributor Cross Site Scripting (XSS) in Open User Map prepare() or any integer casting. Additionally, the nonce verification check is performed after the SQL query has already executed, providing no protection against the injection. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with subscriber-level access and above to inject arbitrary SQL commands, potentially leading to unauthorized extraction of sensitive database contents including user credentials and configuration data. 2026-07-28 6.5 CVE-2026-6251 chrisvrichardson--MapPress Maps for WordPress Unauthenticated Sensitive Data Exposure in MapPress Maps for WordPress prepare(). The wp_unslash() call explicitly removes the backslash escaping that WordPress's wp_magic_quotes() adds to all $_POST data, neutralizing the only layer of SQL injection protection. The sanitize_text_field() function applied afterward offers no SQL protection. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries to the existing query. 2026-08-01 6.5 CVE-2026-6453 CyberTimon--RapidRAW RapidRAW before 1.6.0 does not validate the lutPath field in preset files before passing it to File::open() in lut_processing.rs. On Windows, a UNC path in lutPath causes an outbound SMB connection to an attacker-controlled host, leaking the victim's NTLMv2 credentials. The vulnerable code path is reachable through two vectors: community presets fetched automatically from the remote preset repository when the victim opens the Community tab, and individual preset files imported directly by the victim via the preset import feature (handle_import_presets_from_file in file_management.rs). The second vector does not require control of the community preset repository and is triggered when a user imports a preset file shared through Discord, forums, or similar channels. 2026-07-30 6.5 CVE-2026-64816 DaveGamble--cJSON cJSON through 1.7.19 contains an inefficient algorithmic complexity flaw in cJSON_Compare(). When comparing objects, the function recurses into each shared subtree twice, once in each direction, with no depth guard, making the running time exponential in nesting depth. A small, deeply nested document of a few hundred bytes (depth around 40) compared for equality consumes hours of CPU, and the cost roughly doubles with each additional level of nesting. An application that calls cJSON_Compare() on attacker-influenced JSON that is structurally equal to a reference document is exposed to a denial-of-service condition. 2026-07-29 5.9 CVE-2026-67216 DaveGamble--cJSON cJSON through 1.7.19 applies RFC 6902 JSON Patch operations non-atomically in apply_patch() in cJSON_Utils.c. For a replace operation that is missing its value member, or a move operation whose destination path cannot be resolved, the existing target member is detached and deleted before the operation is fully validated, so the target document is mutated while cJSONUtils_ApplyPatches() or cJSONUtils_ApplyPatchesCaseSensitive() returns a failure status. An attacker who can supply the patch document can destroy addressable members of the target document even though the API reports that the patch failed, defeating the all-or-nothing behavior callers rely on to reject bad patches. 2026-07-29 5.3 CVE-2026-67217 davejesch--Database Collation Fix The Database Collation Fix plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to time-based SQL Injection via the 'force-collation-algorithm' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.10 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. Exploitation requires a trigger.txt file to be present in the plugin's directory (/wp-content/plugins/database-collation-fix/trigger.txt), a condition created by DesktopServer integration events such as site creation, copy, import, move, export, or deploy. 2026-08-01 5.3 CVE-2026-15018 decidim--decidim Decidim is a participatory democracy framework. Prior to 0.30.9, from 0.31.0 before 0.31.5, and in 0.32.0.rc1 before 0.32.0.rc2, the normal download_your_data flow requires the requester to be logged in as the export owner, but the resulting Active Storage blob redirect URL can be replayed without authentication by anyone who obtains it. This is because Decidim::DownloadYourDataController#download_file authenticates the export owner but redirects to a signed Active Storage blob URL that is no longer bound to the owner session. This issue is fixed in versions 0.30.9, 0.31.5, and 0.32.0.rc2. 2026-07-31 6.5 CVE-2026-45377 decidim--decidim Decidim is a participatory democracy framework. From 0.31.1 before 0.31.5 and in 0.32.0.rc1 before 0.32.0.rc2, a participant can directly load /admin/demographics/questions/edit_questions and reach the demographics questionnaire editor without the required administrator authorization. The demographics questionnaire editor should require admin access, but the route under /admin/demographics/questions renders the editor interface without checking whether the caller is an admin. A normal participant can load the page and see the live update form action, which proves the protected interface is reachable. This issue is fixed in versions 0.31.5 and 0.32.0.rc2. 2026-07-31 5.4 CVE-2026-45086 decidim--decidim Decidim is a participatory democracy framework. Prior to 0.30.9, from 0.31.0 before 0.31.5, and in 0.32.0.rc1 before 0.32.0.rc2, the GET /admin/organization/users search interpolates params[:term] into raw Arel.sql ORDER BY similarity expressions before sanitization, allowing an authenticated organization administrator to execute blind PostgreSQL expressions and infer data through timing differences. This issue is fixed in versions 0.30.9, 0.31.5, and 0.32.0.rc2. 2026-07-31 5.5 CVE-2026-45376 decidim--decidim Decidim is a participatory democracy framework. Prior to 0.30.9, from 0.31.0 before 0.31.5, and in 0.32.0.rc1 before 0.32.0.rc2, the identity-document verification admin controllers load pending Authorization records by raw identifier without confirming current_organization ownership, allowing an administrator from one tenant to view, approve, or reject another tenant's ID-document request. This issue is fixed in versions 0.30.9, 0.31.5, and 0.32.0.rc2. 2026-07-31 4.9 CVE-2026-45330 deveasel--Demi One Click Demo Import, Backup & Site Migration The Demi - One Click Demo Import, WP Backup & Site Migration plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary Directory Copy in all versions up to, and including, 0.0.8 via the handle_restore_step function. This is due to missing HTTP access controls on the wp-content/uploads/demi-backup-state/ directory, which exposes the cryptographic restore key used to both authenticate the unauthenticated AJAX handler and forge signed restore-state envelopes. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to copy arbitrary files to attacker-controlled destinations on the server. An active restore operation must have been initiated, which writes the .restore_key and .restore_step_token files to the public upload directory, before the exposed secrets can be harvested and chained to achieve unauthenticated arbitrary file copy. 2026-07-28 5.3 CVE-2026-15012 devitemsllc--ShopLentor All-in-One WooCommerce Growth & Store Enhancement Plugin The ShopLentor - All-in-One WooCommerce Growth & Store Enhancement Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 3.4.5 via the 'optionSection' parameter due to missing validation on a user controlled key. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to read arbitrary wp_options rows - including internal plugin news feed data, WooCommerce block pattern transients, and third-party configuration records - whose values are stored as arrays-of-arrays containing 'title' keys, enabling cross-plugin data leakage. 2026-07-28 4.3 CVE-2026-16797 devitemsllc--ShopLentor All-in-One WooCommerce Growth & Store Enhancement Plugin The ShopLentor - All-in-One WooCommerce Growth & Store Enhancement Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to time-based SQL Injection via the 'orderby' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 3.4.5 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. 2026-07-28 4.9 CVE-2026-16811 dfir-iris--iris-web The IRIS web application in version 2.4.26 and possibly others does not protect its MFA validation against brute-force attacks. 2026-07-30 5.9 CVE-2026-16971 dfir-iris--iris-web The IRIS web application in version 2.4.26 and possibly others does not protect its user authentication against brute-force attacks. 2026-07-30 5.9 CVE-2026-18362 dfir-iris--iris-web The IRIS web application in version 2.4.26 and possibly others contains a logout functionality which is ineffective. Stolen session cookies can therefore be misused for a long time. 2026-07-30 4.2 CVE-2026-16970 dotonpaper--Pinpoint Booking System Version 2 The Pinpoint Booking System - Version 2 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to blind SQL Injection via the 'field' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.9.9.6.9 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. The nonce required to reach the vulnerable endpoint is emitted on all plugin admin pages loaded under manage_options, making it trivially obtainable by any authenticated administrator. 2026-08-01 4.9 CVE-2026-15403 drakkan--SFTPGo SFTPGo prior to 2.7.4 contains a permission bypass vulnerability that allows authenticated users to circumvent per-directory access controls by creating symbolic links in a permitted directory that point to files in directories where download, upload, or overwrite permissions are denied. Attackers can exploit the create_symlinks permission combined with read and write access in one directory to read or modify files in restricted directories, as operations are authorized against the link's directory permissions rather than the dereferenced target's directory permissions. 2026-07-30 4.2 CVE-2026-10031 edge22--GenerateBlocks The GenerateBlocks plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Dynamic Tag Injection in HTML Attributes in all versions up to, and including, 2.3.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. A Contributor-level attacker can store the malicious payload by placing a dynamic tag such as {{post_meta key:...}} in a non-URL HTML attribute (e.g., title, aria-label, alt, or data-* attributes) of a GenerateBlocks element block, then setting the corresponding unprotected post meta key via the Custom Fields metabox to a value containing a closing quote and an injected event-handler attribute. 2026-08-01 6.4 CVE-2026-13458 eLyiN--gemini-bridge gemini-bridge is a lightweight MCP server bridging AI agents to Google's Gemini AI via the official CLI. From 1.0.0 until 1.3.1, consult_gemini_with_files in inline mode read any file path supplied in the files argument without confining it to the working directory, then forwarded the contents to the Gemini CLI. Because the caller also controls query, the file contents are echoed back through the Gemini round-trip (and sent to Google), making this an arbitrary local file read. This issue is fixed in version 1.3.1. 2026-07-31 6.2 CVE-2026-54785 facturadorvirtual--Facturacin Electrnica Costa Rica The Facturación Electrónica Costa Rica plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 2.0.2. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the (global scope, included by fvcr_admin_page_html) function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to modify the plugin's configuration, including API tokens, access tokens, economic activity, Hacienda environment mode, invoice and ticket emission flags, exchange rate, and branch settings via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link. 2026-07-29 4.3 CVE-2026-9720 Flipper Code--WP Maps Insertion of Sensitive Information Into Sent Data vulnerability in Flipper Code WP Maps allows Retrieve Embedded Sensitive Data. This issue affects WP Maps: from n/a through 4.9.6. 2026-07-31 4.3 CVE-2026-28144 foomagoo--Plugin Organizer The Plugin Organizer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'PO_plugin_path' parameter in versions up to, and including, 10.2.4. This is due to insufficient escaping on the user-supplied parameter in the perform_plugin_search() function, where esc_sql() output is passed as the replacement string to preg_replace(), which collapses backslash escapes and defeats the quoting protection; additionally, the AJAX handler lacks both nonce verification and capability checks. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. 2026-07-28 6.5 CVE-2026-15304 Franky--Events Made Easy Unauthenticated Broken Access Control in Events Made Easy prepare() format string, bypassing parameterization entirely. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. 2026-07-28 6.5 CVE-2026-15267 Themeisle--Feedzy Contributor Server Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in Feedzy
