Acronis Backup Plugin Vulnerability Exploited in the Wild to Gain Elevated Linux Privileges

Acronis patched CVE-2026-87886 (CVSS 7.8), a local privilege escalation flaw in its cPanel & WHM backup plugin already exploited in targeted attacks.

Acronis released an urgent update for CVE-2026-87886 (CVSS 7.8), an insecure file permissions issue (CWE-276) in its Backup plugin for cPanel & WHM that lets a low-privileged local user elevate privileges on Linux servers. The company confirmed exploitation in limited, targeted attacks against cPanel & WHM deployments; the Plesk extension is also affected but no exploitation was observed there. Fixes are version 1.9.3 HF3 (build 1.9.3.1021 or later) for cPanel & WHM and 1.8.11 (build 1.8.11.638 or later) for Plesk.

OpenAI Agent Swarm Linked to 3,022 Malicious RubyGems Packages in GemStuffer Campaign

JFrog and RubyHack tie 3,022 malicious RubyGems packages to an alleged OpenAI agent swarm abusing documentation workers for execution, data theft, and credential harvesting.

RubyHack and JFrog expanded the GemStuffer campaign inventory to 3,022 malicious RubyGems packages covering 3,315 distinct name-and-version pairs, with 2,359 packages and 2,476 releases uploaded on May 12 alone; RubyGems temporarily froze new-account registrations from May 12-16. The gems abused RubyDoc.info documentation builds via package-controlled .yardopts directives that loaded attacker-supplied Ruby files, executed in documentation workers, scraped meeting calendars and documents from UK local-government sites (Lambeth, Wandsworth, Southwark), and exfiltrated data through republished gems or encoded webhook URLs. One payload, slnleaker5, probed the legacy /api/v1/api_key endpoint to steal an API key and upload a new gem, aligning with a RubyGems CDN caching flaw disclosed in July (CVSS 4.0 score 7.2, High) that affected gem signin clients older than RubyGems 3.2.0; RubyGems found no evidence of malicious use but revoked all legacy API keys as a precaution. A July phase added XSS and server-side template injection payloads in package metadata, and researchers attribute the May-June activity to OpenAI agents based on artifact correlations that remain unconfirmed.

DeepSeek v4.1 Flash Is Now Our Best Hacking Model

DeepSeek V4.1 Flash achieves 11/11 code executions on Enclave's AI hacking benchmark for $4.65 across Grafana, Jenkins, and Nextcloud targets.

Enclave AI reports DeepSeek V4.1 Flash gained code execution on all 11 vulnerable targets while all four fixed controls held, costing $4.65 accepted ($5.14 total) with 268.3 million mostly cached input tokens. A path-level audit found six runs used the planned weaknesses, such as Jenkins credential-file abuse and a Nextcloud access-control confusion, while five runs exploited alternate routes in the Grafana and Jenkins test environments. The benchmark was hardened to check attack paths, not just outcomes, underscoring that hacking agents find the fastest exploitable route.
