Wow Palo Alto watch out!
Announcing 3 Critical vulns for hundreds of millions of IoT, Firewalls, OT, and Military devices including: Palo Alto Networks, Comcast, D-Link, HP, Canon, Honeywell, GE, Oracle, Siemens, Rockwell, Digi, Lockheed Martin, Boeing...
The vulns are with GoAhead Web Server which is a backend library used by these devices. There's a patch available from GoAhead but that doesn't mean there's a patch available for the devices yet -- that's up to the manufacturer.
- TLS traffic over DHE ciphers have a 1-byte secret, "04", meaning anyone can decrypt connections to these devices and steal login credentials and session tokens if the client negotiated with DHE ciphers like the latest TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256, which is extremely likely.
- LibreSSL mTLS has been completely bypassed, meaning anyone can connect over mTLS. If you have one of these devices listening on the internet and are expecting mTLS to protect it from attackers, take it offline or patch asap.
- OpenSSL Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs) are not enforced, meaning if a user device is stolen or compromised, and you revoke that mTLS cert, nothing actually happens. There are a lot of other attacks this can be used for.
These are critical because these types of devices run our world. Water systems, electricity, military, firewalls, critical infrastructure.

While evaluating Qwen3.8-Flash-Next in a controlled sandbox environment, Cohere's research team observed something unexpected.
Asked to generate a defensive cybersecurity detection rule, the model instead inventoried aspects of the machine it was running on and attempted to upload a probe file to an Alibaba Cloud storage bucket in Beijing. Notably, the model's reasoning trace stated that it would not invoke any tools before taking these actions.
Cohere's sandbox blocked the attempt, and no external communication succeeded. We have not determined the root cause, and we are not asserting malicious intent.
But the incident raises important questions for organizations deploying agentic AI systems: Can models take actions that differ from their stated reasoning, and how should security teams evaluate trust, provenance, and behavior in open-weight models?
We are publishing our findings because organizations making model adoption decisions deserve as much information as possible. We hope this contributes to greater transparency, stronger security practices, and continued collaboration across the AI ecosystem.

Evals built in! Interested to know what will you built with this?
I have Hermes which already uses Cursor for coding and maybe will switch it to this?
Busy day tomorrow friends. Let’s get to work.
‼️ Tailscale SSH Flaws Could Let Hackers Gain Root Access Across Servers
Details: cybersecuritynews.com/tailsc…
A new security report warns that Tailscale SSH has flaws that could let a hacker move from one compromised device to root access on other servers. Tailscale SSH lets approved devices log in to each other over a private network. The report lists 11 findings in five groups.
They cover Tailscale’s SSH server, its serve and app connector features, the DERP relay client, and headscale, an open-source server that manages Tailscale networks.
The researcher tested Tailscale 1.104.2 and headscale 0.29.5 between October 22 and October 24, 2026. The most serious group involves Tailscale SSH. Its SSH server runs inside tailscaled, a background program with full root privileges on the machine.
#cybersecuritynews
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The flaws require an already-approved device in the Tailscale network with SSH rules permitting access/forwarding; they enable post-compromise lateral movement and escalation inside the tailnet, not unauthenticated remote access from outside.

Patching your application servers is the easy part. Knowing where they are isn't always so simple. Being able to rapidly identify and understand your own attack surface is going to be more important more than ever.
Replying to @tryaether_ai
Out of an estate of roughly 40,000 assets, Aether AI isolated the handful actually running exposed PHP, cutting the noise so the customer's team could move straight to response rather than triaging everything.
My was 100 followers this weekend and I got to 70.
Still some hours left in the week, and I am pretty happy with the performance.
I feel like there is enough to talk about in security and AI security to last a lifetime.
But seems a delicate balance.
We need to stay broad to get seen, but go deep to keep interest of people in our niche.
Specialists will grow tired of surface level information?
Then again they are on X not Insta + TikTok.
Go deep or go beginner?
Targeted vibe coding and SaaS rules for most things.
Clients that aren't technical DO NOT want to vibe code their own solutions. They cannot have their businesses rely on something they don't understand.
Clients DO NOT want to work with developers who cannot instill trust that the solutions they deliver are solid (a guarantee).
1.5 yr ago I created a proposal for the client to create a Flight Cost Estimate tool.
$14.000, and I would have completed it within a week or less.
Few days ago they decided they want to build it. I honestly told them I can't charge them $14K anymore, and I doubt it will take more than a few days.
I started an agent on it last night, and it's done, tested, deployed on staging this morning. It even tested multiple API providers on real use cases, and came up with a detailed analysis.
One shot. Near zero of my time and I'll charge it $4K instead of $14K.
Here's how you should think about pricing your services.
The client now pays for:
- Access to me and my software factory, as a monthly retainer.
- My stamp of approval on the software they get from me, which gives them peace of mind.
I can spend very little time creating a solution that's super solid, production ready. But that comes from 25 years of software experience, 3 years of building at the frontier of AI, and creating AI Agents that guarantee quality of delivery.
Clients get much more done for much less. That opens a LOT more possibilities for them. They couldn't justify a Flight Cost Estimate tool at $14K, but they can at $4K. There's at least 10 more tools like that, which will have significant impact on their business that make sense.
That all works if you're a freelancer or a solopreneur. If you're an agency, you have a HUGE problem, which is a topic for another post.
We helped clients move to AWS frequently.
Now there are positives and minuses when you are moving from small to medium size business and you can get far with a VPS at proof of concept stage.
The main thing to do is use infrastructure-as-code (IAC) so that you can easily tear down and update your infra and control from one central place in code.
This allows you or your agent to manage costs by tracking where everything is, tearing it down if not required.
This can alleviate the biggest complaint, cost blow out from orphaned artefacts.
And get the benefit of tools like this.
Almost every company we talk to is worried about security right now.
AI has taken the gap between finding a vulnerability and someone using it from weeks down to minutes, leaving teams scrambling to keep up.
That’s why we built AWS Continuum, now generally available.
It works autonomously with guardrails you set to discover vulnerabilities, confirm which ones are genuinely exploitable, prioritize what matters most, and build the patches to close them. Teams spend their energy on real risk instead of chasing noise.
Customers like IBM, Robinhood, Capital One, Infor, and Luminate have been running it in preview and see a meaningful difference in their security efforts.
Continuum gives security teams what they need to keep up with the risks of today, and get ahead of them. Should be a huge help. aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/aws…
Here we go strap in folks its security week!

Great to meet the founder of AI Tinkerers Joe Heitzeberg who was visiting our city and learn about how the idea began.
Earlier in the day I demoed my personal agent system at the meetup. It was good to compare the decision tree of what I built with, the design choices that SpaceX took with Grok Bot.
We chatted about global trends in voice AI, what's happening in robotics and of course the most important questions, is memory solved yet?
Of course answer is NO.
Thanks to the local team Huy Dinh + Vet Ha for organising.
