The AI Supply Chain Has a Security Problem, and Much of It Is Sitting on the Open Internet

Researchers counted 36,769 publicly reachable self-hosted AI endpoints, only about 2% behind HTTP authentication, exposing Ollama, vLLM, and Flowise to abuse.

A Mysterium VPN study found 36,769 self-hosted AI endpoints reachable through internet scanning, with only 2.02% returning an HTTP authentication challenge. Open WebUI accounted for 18,529 reachable instances, Ollama for 6,935 fingerprinted hosts, and 5,223 agent-builder and workflow platforms were exposed, often holding API keys, database credentials, and other secrets. The report highlights LLMjacking risk from exposed Ollama APIs, a critical Flowise bug (CVE-2026-40933), leaked n8n tokens, and prior SentinelOne/Censys research finding roughly 175,000 exposed Ollama hosts in 130 countries.

Plex Urges Immediate Updates After Patching Multiple Undisclosed Security Flaws

Plex patched multiple undisclosed flaws in Media Server 1.43.3 and Desktop 1.115.0, urging all users to update immediately.

Plex released fixes in Plex Media Server 1.43.3 and Plex Desktop 1.115.0 for multiple undisclosed security flaws, with CVE identifiers requested and details not yet published. Censys data shows more than 360,000 devices expose the Plex Media Server web interface. Past Plex flaws saw real exploitation, including CVE-2020-5741 (CVSS 7.2), used to implant a keylogger on a LastPass employee's home computer during the 2022 breach, and CVE-2025-34158 (CVSS 8.5), an authentication bug patched in August 2025.

NSA, CISA, FBI, DOE, and EPA Warn of Active AI

Five US agencies warn of active AI-assisted attacks on internet-exposed Siemens S7 PLCs across critical infrastructure, using disguised snap7 scripts for pre-positioning reconnaissance.

NSA, CISA, FBI, DOE, and EPA issued joint advisory CISA AA26-231A warning of an active hacking campaign against Siemens S7-series PLCs, from S7-200 through S7-1500 F-series, across US critical infrastructure. Threat actors use internet scanning services such as Censys and ZoomEye to locate exposed controllers, then perform read operations over S7comm on TCP port 102 using the legitimate snap7.dll and python-snap7 libraries, disguising AI-generated exploitation scripts as monitoring tools. The agencies assess the activity as pre-positioning ahead of possible process disruption, equipment damage, or safety incidents in Energy, Water, Critical Manufacturing, Chemical, Food and Agriculture, and Commercial Facilities sectors.

  • Authenticated Deserialization RCE in Plex Media Server on Windows
    CVE-2020-5741 is a deserialization-of-untrusted-data flaw (CWE-502) in Plex Media Server on Windows: the server deserializes a serialized Python (pickle) object supplied over the network without adequate validation. A remote attacker who has already authenticated with high-privilege credentials to the server can submit a maliciously crafted serialized object, causing the server to execute arbitrary Python code upon deserialization. Successful exploitation yields code execution in the context of the Plex Media Server process on the Windows host, exposing that machine's data and credentials and, as demonstrated in the 2022 LastPass breach, potentially providing a foothold into connected environments. Windows installations running a release without the vendor's 2020 security fix are affected; Linux/NAS deployments are outside the described scope of this flaw. Exploitation is confirmed: it carries a 72.9% EPSS probability (99th percentile), has public PoC exploits (Tenable TRA-2020-32 and a PacketStorm write-up), was added to CISA's KEV catalog on 2023-03-10, and is publicly linked to the LastPass breach, where an unpatched Plex Media Server on an employee's PC was the entry point.

  • Flowise is a drag & drop user interface to build a customized large language model flow.
    Flowise is a drag & drop user interface to build a customized large language model flow. Prior to 3.1.0, due to unsafe serialization of stdio commands in the MCP adapter, an authenticated attacker can add an MCP stdio server with an arbitrary command, achieving command execution. The vulnerability lies in a bug in the input sanitization from the “Custom MCP” configuration in http://localhost:3000/canvas - where any user can add a new MCP, when doing so - adding a new MCP using stdio, the user can add any command, even though your code have input sanitization checks such as…
