Apache Superset SQL Injection Flaw Gets Public PoC Exploit

A public Python proof-of-concept exploit was released for CVE-2026-23980, an authenticated error-based SQL injection flaw in Apache Superset before 6.0.0.

A public proof-of-concept exploit repository now targets CVE-2026-23980, an error-based SQL injection affecting Apache Superset versions from 0.0.0 up to but not including 6.0.0. An authenticated user with read access can inject SQL through the sqlExpression or where parameters, potentially reaching business, customer, and security data depending on database configuration and privileges. Apache disclosed the flaw in February and urges upgrading to Superset 6.0.0; compensating controls include least-privilege database accounts, network restrictions, and log monitoring.

The world must establish red lines for autonomous AI weapons

Opinion piece calls for international red lines on autonomous AI weapons after a Russian AI-guided drone autonomously killed three civilians in Zaporizhzhia.

The author urges enforceable international agreements governing autonomous weapon systems, citing a July 2026 incident where a Russian drone struck a gas station in Zaporizhzhia, killing three Ukrainian civilians. Ukrainian investigators found the drone carried an Nvidia Jetson Orin chip, and the onboard AI reportedly selected the specific target without a human making the final decision. The piece argues existing international humanitarian law lacks specific standards for weapons that independently select and engage targets, and points to UN and ICRC deliberations plus the Global Council for Responsible AI's red-line framework.
