Jenkins patched 20 vulnerabilities across 13 plugins, including Groovy sandbox bypasses enabling remote code execution on CI/CD controllers.

Jenkins released security updates on September 16, 2026 for 20 vulnerabilities across 13 plugins, including nine fixes in the Script Security Plugin for Groovy sandbox bypasses. CVE-2026-92127 (classpath abuse) and CVE-2026-92128 (TOCTOU race on remote JAR loading) could allow arbitrary code execution in the controller JVM, exposing build secrets, credentials, and downstream deployment environments. Other flaws include stored XSS in the Warnings, Coverage, OWASP Dependency-Check and Gitee plugins, SSRF in the Gradle and Bitbucket plugins enabling credential capture, credential exposure via CVE-2026-92130, arbitrary file write via CVE-2026-92137, OAuth token theft, and an open redirect in the Keycloak Authentication Plugin. No exploitation is reported; fixes include Script Security Plugin 1422.v06869826dd9b_.

US takes down NightmareStresser DDoS-for-hire platformnew

FBI seized NightmareStresser, a DDoS-for-hire platform with 566,000 users and servers capable of 200 Gbps attacks, under Operation PowerOFF.

US law enforcement seized the nightmare-stresser[.]com and nightmarestresser[.]org domains used by the DDoS-for-hire service. Searchlight Cyber reported in 2023 that NightmareStresser had over 566,000 registered users and 52 dedicated servers launching attacks of up to 200 Gbps against Layer 4 and Layer 7 targets. The FBI said the service was used for hundreds of thousands of actual or attempted DDoS attacks since 2022. The action continues Operation PowerOFF, which began in December 2018 and previously took down DigitalStress, Dstat.cc and dozens of booter domains.

The AI security question leaders should be asking instead

Gremlin security officer Frederic Bull argues AI has eroded the attacker-defender skill asymmetry while least-privilege controls remain essential for securing AI agents.

In a Help Net Security interview, Gremlin Security Officer Frederic Bull says AI has narrowed the expertise gap between attackers and defenders, enabling faster exploit discovery even by less-skilled actors. His team processed roughly nine times more vulnerabilities in the past year with unchanged staffing using LLM-based tooling, cutting time-to-remediate by about 5%. He argues least privilege, session-based RBAC via OIDC/OBO, and human-in-the-loop oversight remain the bedrock defenses for AI agents, and that hiring should favor engineers able to catch confidently wrong AI output.

Flock cameras are riddled with security vulnerabilities and hardcoded creds

Leaked Flock ALPR camera firmware reveals EOL Android 8.1, a 2017 Linux kernel, and hardcoded API keys granting access to production credentials.

DDoSecrets published filesystem images from an in-use Flock ALPR camera, obtained by the hacker collective stegan0gram and investigated by 404 Media and Wired. Micah Lee's analysis shows the camera runs Android 8.1 with a security patch level of 2018-06-05 and Linux kernel 3.18.71, missing roughly eight years of Android fixes. The firmware exposes a hardcoded API key for Flock's hpnotiq backend that can retrieve Auth0 client credentials for any camera by MAC address, with credentials stored in plaintext. Likely unpatched flaws include CVE-2021-1905 (Qualcomm Adreno use-after-free) and CVE-2018-9568 (WrongZone kernel socket type confusion); Flock says it received no reports via its disclosure policy.

Reporting Practice Matters: The Impact of Reference Choice on Chest X-ray Report Evaluation

Study shows radiology reporting-style variations in reference reports can flip rankings of chest X-ray report generation models; releases MIMIC-CXR-Ext-ReRef dataset.

The paper quantifies how variations in radiologists' reporting practices distort evaluation of radiology report generation (RRG) models, introducing a radiologist-informed taxonomy and the ReRef method for rewriting reference reports while preserving clinical meaning. On MIMIC-CXR with RadCliQ-v1, condensing normal-findings discussion caused Libra to drop from first to second while CheXOne rose from third to first among nine models. The authors release MIMIC-CXR-Ext-ReRef, a radiologist-validated dataset of 120 original/alternative reference pairs, arguing metrics conflate clinical correctness with stylistic conformity.

GhostCode Phishing Kit Bypasses Microsoft 365 MFA to Hijack Accounts in 78 Seconds

eSentire identified GhostCode, a phishing kit abusing Microsoft 365 OAuth device-code sign-in to steal tokens and take over accounts in seconds.

eSentire analysts identified GhostCode in late August, a phishing kit that uses business contact-form messages and an NDA pretext to deliver a password-protected HTML attachment leading victims to a Microsoft device-code sign-in. Victims authenticate on legitimate Microsoft pages, letting the kit obtain a Primary Refresh Token in 32 seconds and register three devices in 78 seconds, with residential proxies matching the victim's location. The kit hides its redirect with encrypted addresses, junk data, and scanner-filtering challenges, and uses GHOSTnet-linked infrastructure during device enrolment. eSentire recommends blocking device-code authentication via Conditional Access, invalidating tokens, and reviewing newly enrolled devices.
