Re: rosbridge_library Protocol.incoming() quadratic CPU cost in JSON fallback

David Wheeler notes a rosbridge_library quadratic CPU cost flaw was publicly disclosed on oss-security without prior coordination.

In an oss-security reply, David A. Wheeler pointed out that a poster had just publicly disclosed details of a quadratic CPU cost issue in rosbridge_library's Protocol.incoming() JSON fallback path. Wheeler referenced the mailing list's stated norms encouraging public discussion of open-source security flaws. The reply itself contains no fix, CVE, or exploitation details.

CVE-2026-86089: Apache NiFi: Missing Process Group Authorization for Connector Migration

Apache NiFi 2.11.0 Connector Migration REST APIs authorize only against the target Connector, skipping Process Group access checks (CVE-2026-86089, Low).

Apache NiFi 2.11.0 supports migrating version-controlled Process Group contents into a Connector via REST API methods that list eligible migration sources and submit migration requests. Both methods were authorized only against the target Connector, without evaluating user access to the involved Process Groups. The flaw, tracked as CVE-2026-86089, is rated Low severity and affects the nifi-web-api component.

Forgery of C2PA on a Pixel 10

Researcher forged a Google Pixel 10 C2PA content credential with genuine signatures, showing root-level attackers can fake photo provenance.

A Hacker Factor blog post demonstrates an AI-generated 'unicorn glitter milk' news photo carrying a valid, cryptographically signed C2PA manifest traceable to Google's Pixel camera certificate chain, passing validation in Adobe Inspect and the CAI Verify tool with a verified timestamp. The author, working with UMBC's PASAWG working group, reported to Google and C2PA in November 2025 that root access on a Pixel device could sign arbitrary images as camera captures; after 90 days without resolution, details were published. The finding undermines C2PA Assurance Level 2 claims made for Pixel 10 Content Credentials.

New hardware device can RAM into encrypted memory, expose your data

Researchers built a $200 DDR5 interposer that silently drops memory writes to break TDX, SGX, and SEV-SNP confidential VM integrity, requiring physical access.

Researchers from KU Leuven, ETH Zurich, Durham University, and Google demonstrated DDRop, a hardware interposer costing under $200 that corrupts DDR5 bus commands to silently drop writes to encrypted memory, enabling replay attacks on confidential VMs. Because scalable memory encryption lacks freshness checks, protected VMs keep computing on stale attacker-selected data; on an Intel TDX server the attack forces debug mode for plaintext memory reads or forges attestation reports, succeeding in under two minutes without crashing. Intel and AMD both called the attack out of scope for their cloud threat models, with no mitigation planned, and proposed cache line versioning appears still vulnerable. The full interposer design is being released as open-source hardware.
