NGINX rift: We autonomously discovered this 18 yr old heap overflow (CVE-2026-42945) in @nginx impacting version 0.6.27 to 1.30.0. If you use rewrite and set directive, you maybe impacted! Please update your NGINX or change the config to mitigate it. Read more at https://t.co/KeoblrGL24
Unauthenticated RCE in Apache Tomcat (CVE-2026-34486)
The EncryptInterceptor was supposed to protect cluster communication. A fix for a padding oracle vulnerability moved one line outside a try block, and the encryption layer silently started forwarding every failed decryption straight into unfiltered Java deserialization.
We found it with Striga, built the exploit, and reported it to The Apache Software Foundation.
