ASUS Control Center Critical Flaw Allows Unauthenticated Attackers to Gain Root Access

ASUS patched CVE-2026-19397 (CVSS 7.7) in Control Center Express Agent, letting unauthenticated nearby attackers with an active session take over the host.

ASUS released version 1.7.24 of Control Center Express Agent to fix CVE-2026-19397, a CWE-306 missing-authentication flaw scored 7.7 on CVSS v4. Exploitation requires an active login session on the target and nearby network access, and agent compromise could lead to complete device takeover where the agent runs with elevated privileges. ASUS also issued a same-day advisory for Armory Crate covering ten additional CVEs.

Tactical Threat Intelligence Explained: Benefits & Use Cases

Recorded Future explains tactical threat intelligence, covering attacker TTPs, IOC collection, and use in SOC detection, response, and control hardening.

Recorded Future published an explainer on tactical cyber threat intelligence, describing how it differs from strategic and operational intelligence by focusing on attacker tactics, techniques, and procedures. The piece outlines sources such as OSINT, dark web monitoring, malware analysis, and internal telemetry, and describes the intelligence lifecycle from collection through dissemination. It argues tactical CTI improves detection tuning, incident response, preventive controls, and resource allocation for SOC teams.

Top 10 Best Ransomware Protection Solutions in 2026

A 2026 buyer's guide ranks ten ransomware protection tools by kill-chain role as extortion shifts from encryption to data theft.

The roundup organizes defenses across the ransomware kill chain: prevention-grade EPP/EDR platforms, containment layers, rollback specialists, and immutable recovery. Recommended products include CrowdStrike, Microsoft Defender, Sophos, SentinelOne, Bitdefender, Trend Micro, Halcyon, Huntress, and Malwarebytes. It stresses that many crews now extort on stolen data without encrypting, making exfiltration detection and response speed as important as rollback.

AI workflows may be creating a dangerous new authorization blind spot

Noma Labs researchers describe 'workflow identity hijacking,' letting unauthenticated users trigger privileged AI workflows that execute actions with high-privilege service accounts.

Noma Labs lead researcher Sasi Levi detailed 'workflow identity hijacking,' where benign unauthenticated inputs via support inboxes, GitHub issues, or web forms trigger enterprise AI pipelines that execute privileged actions. The workflow runs using high-privilege service accounts or developer API keys, decoupled from the requester's identity, effectively creating a confused-deputy condition. Unlike prompt injection, the model behaves correctly; the failure lies in authorization enforcement at the workflow layer, and activity blends into routine automation. Mitigations include identity-aware access at execution points and user-context propagation between AI outputs and downstream operations.

ChatGPT flaw lets attackers pull Gmail data across accounts via a hidden channel

Check Point found a ChatGPT flaw letting attackers read victims' Gmail and connected-app data via hidden cross-session instructions; OpenAI patched it.

Check Point Research discovered a covert cross-account command channel in ChatGPT's code execution environment, where containers meant to be isolated shared metadata through an internal service based on JFrog Artifactory. In a proof of concept, a victim's session was tricked into retrieving Gmail email data and relaying it to an attacker-controlled session during an ordinary-looking interaction, with reach extending to any connected apps the session was authorized for, including Google Drive, Microsoft Teams, and GitHub. OpenAI fixed the issue and decommissioned the internal service; the same shared infrastructure was also involved in the separately disclosed Hugging Face compromise, though via different techniques.

Coupled Calibration and Learning: Mitigating Teacher Bias in LLM Distillation without Target-Domain Reward Feedback

CCL couples teacher calibration with student updates via token-level branching, provably removing teacher bias in LLM distillation.

The paper proposes Coupled Calibration and Learning (CCL), an LLM distillation algorithm that alternates teacher calibration using source-question reward feedback with student training on target questions under covariate shift. Each iteration calibrates the teacher on source feedback, trains the student on target questions, and lets the updated student inform subsequent calibration. The authors prove the student's expected KL divergence to the oracle student converges to zero at a polynomial rate, and show regularized direct matching error can remain bounded away from zero.
