    New GPUThor Rowhammer Defeats ECC on NVIDIA RTX A6000 to Gain Host Root Access

    Academic researchers from the University of Toronto have disclosed a new Rowhammer attack called GPUThor targeting NVIDIA workstation GPUs equipped with GDDR6 memory. The attack defeats error correction codes (ECC), which is the primary mitigation NVIDIA recommends against GPU Rowhammer attacks. GPUThor enables both denial-of-service (DoS) and privilege escalation attacks, ultimately allowing an attacker to gain a root shell on the host system. The attack demonstrates that ECC alone is insufficient as a defense against Rowhammer-class attacks on modern GPU hardware. This research highlights significant security risks for workstation and high-performance computing environments using NVIDIA RTX A6000 GPUs, and potentially other GDDR6-based GPU products.

    The execute_ruby tool is documented as a read-only Ruby sandbox and is enforced by a pattern denylist together with replacements for the process-spawning methods on Kernel. The pseudo-terminal library's spawn entry points are neither in the denylist nor replaced, so a normal tool call could reach them and start a shell, executing commands as the account running the server and outside the guarded methods. The denylist was introduced with the tool in 1.4.0 and never covered those entry points through 1.6.0. Version 1.6.1 restricts the requires the sandbox permits to a data-only list and blocks dynamic dispatch to execution entry points; 2.0.0 removes the tool.

    CVE-2026-81097 affects rails-mcp-server versions 1.4.0 through 1.6.0, where the execute_ruby tool's sandbox can be escaped via the pseudo-terminal (PTY) library's spawn entry points. The tool was documented as a read-only Ruby sandbox enforced by a pattern denylist and replacements for Kernel process-spawning methods. However, PTY spawn entry points were never included in the denylist, allowing an attacker to start a shell and execute arbitrary OS commands as the server's running account. The vulnerability was introduced when the denylist was added in version 1.4.0 and persisted through 1.6.0. Version 1.6.1 mitigates the issue by restricting allowed requires to a data-only list and blocking dynamic dispatch to execution entry points. Version 2.0.0 removes the vulnerable tool entirely.

    openssl_encrypt before 1.4.9 fails to validate the total field from QR JSON payloads before materializing ranges. Attackers can supply crafted QR images with extremely large total values to trigger unbounded memory allocation and cause denial of service through out-of-memory conditions.

    A denial-of-service vulnerability exists in openssl_encrypt versions before 1.4.9. The library fails to validate the 'total' field from QR JSON payloads prior to materializing ranges, allowing attackers to craft malicious QR images containing extremely large total values. This triggers unbounded memory allocation, leading to out-of-memory conditions and denial of service. No authentication or special privileges appear to be required to exploit this vulnerability, as attackers only need to supply a crafted QR image. A fix is available in version 1.4.9 of the openssl_encrypt library. The vulnerability has been assigned CVE-2026-81693 and is documented on NVD as well as GitHub Security Advisories and VulnCheck.

    openssl_encrypt before 1.4.9 fails to sanitize the email field of imported identity documents, allowing attackers to inject ANSI escape sequences that forge the fingerprint verification line displayed to users. Attackers can deliver a crafted identity bundle through normal contact-exchange flows or keyserver responses to manipulate terminal output and display a fraudulent fingerprint, bypassing the out-of-band verification mechanism that protects against key substitution attacks.

    A vulnerability in openssl_encrypt before version 1.4.9 allows attackers to inject ANSI escape sequences via unsanitized email fields in imported identity documents. This enables manipulation of terminal output to display fraudulent cryptographic fingerprints, effectively bypassing the out-of-band verification mechanism designed to protect against key substitution attacks. Attackers can deliver crafted identity bundles through standard contact-exchange flows or keyserver responses, making the attack vector accessible and realistic. The core risk is that users performing fingerprint verification — a critical trust step in encrypted communications — can be deceived into accepting a forged key. This undermines the fundamental security model of tools relying on openssl_encrypt for identity verification and key authentication.

A remote unauthenticated attacker on the network path can hijack the channel and execute arbitrary commands as root. The attacker can also modify DNS entries, exfiltrate PPPoE credentials, and open reverse SSH tunnels.

    Multiple Zbtlink and MoreQuick router firmware versions ship with a pre-installed backdoor C2 implant called 'yunmgrd' that communicates over an unauthenticated cleartext UDP channel to a hardcoded C2 server. A remote unauthenticated attacker on the network path can hijack this channel and execute arbitrary commands as root on affected devices. The vulnerability affects a wide range of devices including Zbtlink L3_V2_8, WE826-T2, ZBT-7628, ZBT-ZBT7621, MoreQuick MQAC/MQAP series, AP522, AP7628, HC5661A, APG721B, HK300, and MAP-N10. Beyond remote code execution, the attacker can modify DNS entries, exfiltrate PPPoE credentials, and establish reverse SSH tunnels for persistent access. This is effectively a supply-chain-level backdoor shipped in production firmware, posing severe risks to network infrastructure and connected environments. The issue was reported by VulnCheck under the campaign name 'DarkLantern/SpeakingStone'.
