Critical Flaw in Python’s Popular Pillow Image Library Allows Code Execution via a Crafted Image

Pillow, the most widely used image library for Python, can be made to run operating system commands on a server by specifying the name of a file it is told to open. The flaw, CVE-2026-112900, is in the way Pillow handles EPS images, which it opens by passing the file's name to Ghostscript, a separate program it runs to turn the image into pixels, without checking the name first.

Researchers Demonstrate Node2Shell RCE Exploit on Node.js Build Using Crafted Brotli Data

Malicious Brotli data can make an application on an official build of Node.js run attacker-supplied code, security researchers at Imperva have demonstrated. Their "Node2Shell" proof of concept ran code on the official Node.js 24.22.0 image for Linux arm64, with no debugger or custom build, by feeding crafted data to the bundled Brotli decoder (CVE-2026-111497). Node.js disclosed the flaw

New Serious PHP Vulnerabilities Released and Patched

PHP maintainers have released two critical vulnerabilities: PHP 8.5.12, 8.4.27, 8.3.36 and 8.2.35 fix two critical vulnerabilities that can allow unauthenticated remote code execution. All PHP users are strongly encouraged to update immediately. Who is at risk: all PHP installations serving web requests, including PHP-FPM, Apache with mod_php, php-cgi, FrankenPHP and LiteSpeed. We consider the risk highest for mod_php, with a demonstrated exploit where an unauthenticated request can trigger the attack before any application code runs. The vulnerabilities:...

New PHP2Shell scanner checks your hosts for CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619

Searchlight Cyber released php2shell-scanner, an open-source tool that tests whether a host is exposed to CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619, the pair of PHP remote code execution bugs patched on October 21. PHP2Shell lets an attacker reach pre-auth RCE against PHP applications running on Apache mod_php or PHP-FPM under default configurations, with confirmed exploitation on widely deployed software including WordPress, Drupal, Joomla, phpMyAdmin, Nextcloud, and Magento.

AI-found bugs are expected to rise, and OpenAI has a five-stage response plan

OpenAI has proposed a five-stage process for handling critical vulnerabilities in widely used software. The process grew out of a two-month response to flaws in PHP, the open-source language that runs websites and web applications. Calif found one of the PHP flaws using OpenAI’s GPT-5.6 Sol model, as part of OpenAI’s Patch the Planet initiative for open-source security, and Wiz independently found and reported both. “As significant as they are, these bugs are among several … More → The post AI-found bugs are expected to rise, and OpenAI has a five-stage response plan appeared first on Help Net Security.
