wp2shell: incident response guide (CVE-2026-63030 + CVE-2026-60137)
Eye Security published forensic IR tooling for wp2shell (CVE-2026-63030/CVE-2026-60137), the unauthenticated WordPress core RCE chain, after WordPress.org forced auto-updates.
wp2shell chains a REST API batch-endpoint route-confusion bug (CVE-2026-63030) with an SQL injection in WP_Query's author__not_in parameter (CVE-2026-60137), giving unauthenticated attackers rogue admin and code execution on default installs. Adam Kues of Searchlight Cyber discovered the flaw, a public PoC exists on GitHub, and WordPress.org forced automatic updates across an estimated 200M+ sites. Eye Security released a compromise-scanner WordPress plugin and browser extension and notes database artifacts (oEmbed cache rows, changesets) are the primary evidence since the attack is log-blind; fixed versions are 6.8.6, 6.9.5, and 7.0.2.

Pegasus and NoviSpy Used Against Serbian Protesters
Citizen Lab confirmed zero-click Pegasus infected a Serbian student activist's iPhone, part of the largest documented Serbian spyware wave targeting at least 14 people.
The Citizen Lab, with the SHARE Foundation, confirmed a Serbian student protest movement member's iPhone was infected with NSO Group's Pegasus via an iMessage zero-click exploit between December 2025 and January 2026; Apple patched the exploit in iOS 18.4.1. SHARE Foundation has documented at least 14 targeted individuals since early 2026, including student activists, civil society figures, an opposition MP and a local councilor, coinciding with the March 2026 local elections. SHARE and Amnesty Tech also found a new NoviSpy variant on a student activist's Android phone after Serbian authorities seized it during police questioning.
