Pixel Modem Zero-Day Exploited in Targeted Attacks
Google patched Pixel modem zero-day CVE-2026-58704, a zero-click permission bypass enabling remote privilege escalation, exploited in targeted attacks.
CVE-2026-58704 is a high-severity logic error in the Pixel cellular modem allowing remote (proximal/adjacent) escalation of privilege with no user interaction or additional execution privileges. Google reports limited, targeted exploitation but has not attributed it; the zero-click modem nature suggests commercial spyware or state-sponsored actors. The September Pixel update also fixes more than 100 other Pixel-specific vulnerabilities, nearly 50 of them critical, enabling RCE or privilege escalation.

DDRop Attack Forces Intel TDX Confidential VMs Into Debug Mode and Exposes Memory
KU Leuven and ETH Zurich researchers released DDRop PoC hardware that forces Intel TDX confidential VMs into debug mode and exposes plaintext memory.
Researchers from KU Leuven, ETH Zurich, Google, and Durham University published proof-of-concept code, hardware designs, and firmware for DDRop, a DDR5 interposer that injects parity errors to drop selected cache-line writebacks. Because Intel TDX, Intel Scalable SGX, and AMD SEV-SNP lack per-line cryptographic freshness, processors decrypt and accept stale DRAM contents as current state. The PoC flips a victim's ATTRIBUTES.DEBUG flag to enable TDX debug mode, then copies victim memory in plaintext and can forge attestation reports. Affected environments include Intel 5th- and 6th-generation Xeon Scalable with TDX; Intel says the attack falls outside its cloud-computing threat model.
