How an Emerging Industrial Protocol Family Could Put OT at Risk
New research shows how attacks against some unprotected TSN protocols could allow attackers to disrupt or manipulate physical processes
Rapid7 Labs disclosed CVE-2026-63520, a high-severity remote code execution vulnerability in Microsoft SharePoint caused by unsafe .NET type instantiation in Business Connectivity Services, which affects all supported versions of the platform. When chained with the previously disclosed authentication bypass CVE-2026-55040, the vulnerabilities enable unauthenticated RCE with the privileges of the SharePoint service account, with Microsoft patches now available across multiple SharePoint versions. The vulnerability was discovered through an AI-assisted research methodology that combined agentic workflows with expert guidance, demonstrating the accelerating capability of large language models in vulnerability discovery against complex enterprise targets.

Ukrainian hacktivists exploiting the bugs, but TrueConf's reach stretches well beyond home turf
Microsoft has confirmed a maximum severity remote-code execution vulnerability in Entra ID that is being actively exploited in the wild. The company states the flaw has been fully mitigated and requires no further action from customers.
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.
