🟠 High | Source: The Hacker News A one-click attack targeting GitHub.dev, the browser-based VS Code environment, allows an attacker to steal a victim’s GitHub OAuth token simply by having them click a crafted link. The stolen token grants full read and write access to both public and private repositories. This is particularly dangerous because it requires no malware installation and exploits a legitimate GitHub feature. Architect’s Take: Audit OAuth token scopes granted to GitHub.dev within your organisation and consider enforcing fine-grained personal access tokens with minimal repository permissions instead of broad OAuth tokens. Ensure developer awareness training covers the risk of clicking unsolicited GitHub.dev links, and review whether your GitHub organisation policies can restrict OAuth app access. ...

🟠 High | Source: The Hacker News A one-click attack targeting Microsoft VS Code’s GitHub.dev feature allows an attacker to steal a victim’s GitHub OAuth token simply by tricking them into clicking a crafted link. The stolen token grants read and write access to all repositories the victim can access, including private ones. This poses a significant supply chain risk, as compromised tokens could be used to inject malicious code into codebases. ...

🟢 Low | Source: AWS What’s New AWS has added three new execution blocks to Amazon Application Recovery Controller (ARC) Region switch, automating database scaling and failover for Aurora (serverless and provisioned) and Neptune global databases during multi-region failover events. Previously, teams had to manually right-size secondary clusters under incident pressure, adding critical minutes to recovery time. These new blocks remove that manual step, reducing recovery time and human error during regional outages. ...

🟠 High | Source: The Hacker News A critical remote code execution vulnerability (CVE-2026-23479) in Redis, introduced in version 7.2.0 over two years ago, has been patched following discovery by an autonomous AI-powered bug-hunting tool. The flaw is a use-after-free bug in Redis’s blocking-client handling code, allowing any authenticated user to execute arbitrary operating system commands on the host server. This is significant because Redis is widely deployed across cloud environments as a caching and data store layer, meaning exposure could lead to full host compromise. ...

🟠 High | Source: The Hacker News A use-after-free vulnerability in Redis (CVE-2026-23479) allows an authenticated user to execute arbitrary operating system commands on the host machine. Present in every stable Redis branch since version 7.2.0, the flaw went undetected for over two years before being discovered by an autonomous AI-powered code analysis tool. Because Redis is widely deployed as a caching and session layer in cloud environments, successful exploitation could lead to full host compromise. ...

🔴 Critical | Source: The Hacker News CISA has added CVE-2026-45247, a critical remote code execution vulnerability in the Mirasvit Cache Warmer Magento extension, to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalogue following confirmed active exploitation. The flaw, scoring 9.8 on the CVSS scale, stems from insecure deserialisation of untrusted data, allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary code on affected systems. Any organisation running this extension on their Magento e-commerce platform should treat this as an urgent remediation priority. ...

🟠 High | Source: The Hacker News Attackers are exploiting Google’s DoubleClick ad-serving domain as a redirect hop in malicious email campaigns, using its trusted reputation to bypass security filters before delivering the DesckVB remote access trojan. Because many email and web security tools whitelist or deprioritise scrutiny of well-known Google-owned domains, the technique significantly increases the likelihood of successful delivery. Once installed, a RAT gives attackers persistent remote control over the victim’s machine. ...

🟢 Low | Source: AWS What’s New Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio has added localisation support for twelve languages, allowing the interface to display in the user’s preferred language based on browser settings or manual selection. This is a usability enhancement with no direct security implications. It is available across all AWS regions where SageMaker Unified Studio is supported. Architect’s Take: No security action is required for this update. Architects should note that language localisation does not affect IAM permissions, domain configurations, or access controls — existing governance and access policies remain unchanged. ...

🟢 Low | Source: AWS What’s New AWS Config has added support for nine new resource types spanning Amazon Bedrock, Bedrock AgentCore, and SageMaker. This means organisations can now track, audit, and enforce compliance rules against these resources automatically if they have enabled recording for all resource types. The expansion is particularly relevant as AI/ML workloads become a growing part of enterprise cloud environments. Architect’s Take: Review your AWS Config recording settings to confirm these new resource types are being captured, and consider authoring or adapting Config rules to enforce security baselines — such as network isolation, encryption, and access controls — for the newly supported Bedrock and SageMaker resources before they proliferate across your environment. ...

🟢 Low | Source: AWS What’s New Amazon ECS Managed Instances now supports AWS Trainium and Inferentia AI accelerator instance types, allowing teams to run ML training and inference workloads without managing the underlying EC2 infrastructure. A single task per instance is automatically allocated all accelerator resources via a NEURON_CORE configuration in the task definition. This is a feature release rather than a security event, though it expands the attack surface for ECS-based AI workloads. ...
