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_.

Supreme Court denies Trump request to allow USPS mail ballot changes

Supreme Court denied the Trump administration's emergency request to implement USPS mail ballot changes before the 2026 midterms, calling it arbitrary and capricious.

The U.S. Supreme Court rejected 7-2 the Trump administration's petition to change how the U.S. Postal Service handles mail-in ballots for the 2026 midterm elections. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wrote the administration was unlikely to succeed, while Justice Brett Kavanaugh cited unreasonably short timelines for state election officials. The blocked executive order would have required USPS citizenship verification, barcode tracking of ballot envelopes, and DHS-compiled "State Citizenship Lists"; a whistleblower alleged a rushed effort to install three restrictive IT verification systems. Justices Alito and Thomas dissented, arguing states and organizations lacked standing.
