Inductive Automation Ignition

CISA reports a permissions flaw (CVE-2026-77393, CVSS 8.8) in Inductive Automation Ignition <=8.1.53 letting authenticated users create projects; fixed in 8.1.54.

CISA republished Inductive Automation's advisory for CVE-2026-77393, an incorrect default permissions issue (CWE-276) in Ignition 8.1.53 and earlier. The Gateway "Create Project Role(s)" setting shipped blank, allowing any authenticated user who can execute gateway scripts to create projects. Ignition 8.1.54 restricts project creation to Designer sessions and the 8.3 series is unaffected. CISA notes no known public exploitation of this vulnerability.

[Control Systems] Inductive Automation security advisory (AV26-892)

Canada's Cyber Centre relayed a CISA ICS advisory for an Inductive Automation Ignition vulnerability affecting versions up to 8.1.53.

The Canadian Centre for Cyber Security published control systems advisory AV26-892, noting that as of September 4, 2026, Inductive Automation is affected by a vulnerability in Ignition versions prior to or equal to 8.1.53. The advisory references CISA's ICS advisory (ICSA-26-246-06) and its CSAF file, and encourages users and administrators to review the linked resources and apply necessary updates as they become available. Ignition is a widely deployed industrial automation platform, so affected OT operators should patch promptly.

ICS Patch Tuesday: Schneider Electric, Siemens Fix Critical Flaws

September ICS Patch Tuesday brings critical fixes from Schneider Electric, Siemens, and Aveva, including CVSS 9.2 authentication flaw CVE-2026-3869 in Modicon M580 controllers.

Schneider Electric's September advisories include a critical authentication vulnerability, CVE-2026-3869 with a CVSS score of 9.2, in Modicon M580 and Modicon M580 Safety controllers, plus high-severity bugs in PowerLogic T300 and EcoStruxure IT Data Center Expert. Siemens published nine new advisories, four rated critical across Reyrolle 7SR5, Open Interface Services, Industrial Edge Management, and SIMOVE Fleetmanager and SIPLANT, and began rolling out fixes for CVE-2026-31431, a 7.8-rated Linux kernel flaw enabling root shell access. Aveva disclosed four flaws in Pipeline Integrity Monitor's PIMBoards, including a hardcoded encryption key and MD5-hashed passwords, plus an unsafe deserialization issue in Enterprise SCADA. Rockwell Automation separately issued nine advisories covering RSLinx Classic and multiple controller products.

InceptionRAG: Stealthy Poisoning Attack Against Retrieval-Augmented Generation

InceptionRAG fragments malicious payloads into dormant passages that trigger LLMs to self-deduce misinformation via multi-hop reasoning, bypassing existing RAG poisoning defenses.

Researchers introduce InceptionRAG, a stealthy corpus poisoning attack against retrieval-augmented generation that splits a malicious payload into a chain of individually harmless dormant passages. When retrieved together, the passages induce LLMs to self-deduce target misinformation through multi-hop reasoning, achieving over 80% attack success rate across three datasets and three LLMs under rigorous adversarial constraints. A zeroth-order suffix optimization (ZOSO) method automates authoritative suffix generation in black-box settings. The authors also propose HODOR, a document isolation defense that decouples adversarial logical dependencies.

🔬“We have foundation models for language, not for physics” — Anima Anandkumar, Bren Professor of Computing

Caltech professor Anima Anandkumar discusses Neural Operators and FourCastNet for physics modeling, arguing inductive biases beat pure token scaling.

Anima Anandkumar, Bren Professor at Caltech and co-founder of Accelerated Understanding, describes Fourier Neural Operators that learn in frequency and spherical-harmonic domains to model weather, fusion, and fluid or heat flow. Her team built FourCastNet 3, a global weather model competitive with physics-based simulations that runs on consumer-grade GPUs. She also introduced TorchLean, a framework for writing PyTorch-style networks inside the Lean proof assistant for formal verification, and was appointed to the United Nations Scientific Advisory Board. She argues physical domains resist scaling due to tiny datasets and context lengths in the hundreds of billions, so progress comes from built-in structure and physical priors.
