CISA Malcolm

CISA Malcolm, a network traffic analysis tool suite, contains multiple vulnerabilities across versions prior to 26.08.0 that could allow authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code, bypass access controls, or cause denial-of-service conditions. The flaws span archive extraction without resource limits, path traversal in file handling, unsafe file uploads with inadequate type validation, RBAC bypasses via path normalization issues, and insufficient protections against compressed data bombs. Users should upgrade to the patched versions (26.06.1, 26.07.0, or 26.08.0 depending on the vulnerability) to mitigate exploitation risks.

Encrypted Prompts Bypass AI Safety Guardrails in Grok and Gemini

Researchers have identified a new attack technique called Cryptographic Context Injection that encrypts malicious instructions to evade safety guardrails in AI models including Grok and Gemini. The method works by concealing harmful prompts until they are decrypted within a trusted execution environment, effectively bypassing existing content filtering mechanisms. This vulnerability highlights a novel attack vector against popular large language models that defenders should monitor.
