Microsoft originally labeled CVE‑2026‑65660, a SharePoint Server flaw affecting 2016, 2019 and Subscription Edition, as a spoofing issue with a CVSS of 6.5. Viettel Cyber Security researcher Dinh Ho Anh Khoa later revealed the vulnerability permits authenticated remote code execution, raising the NVD score to 8.8. The bug resides in the SafeControls check of the ToolPane component, where unescaped quotes allow injection of arbitrary .NET classes that are loaded via XamlServices.Parse(), enabling code execution. Patches released on [...]

Aviatrix introduced Harvest and Decrypt Protection, a software‑only service that merges post‑quantum‑ready encryption with workload‑level communication governance for cloud workloads. The offering encrypts traffic with crypto‑agile algorithms and enforces policies that restrict egress paths, preventing “harvest‑now‑decrypt‑later” attacks. Customers receive five free policies and five nodes immediately, with a 30‑day trial for new users. Aviatrix positions the product as the first solution to combine encryption and governance at a single enforcement point, arriving a month before U.S. federal [...]

In 2019 he joined the guides teams at USgamer and ReedPop, contributing guides, news, features and reviews for titles such as Gfinity Esports, Eurogamer, VG247, Dicebreaker, RPS and Jelly Deals, and also performed SEO consulting [...]

Bastø Electric entered service on Norway’s busy Moss‑Horten ferry route in March 2021 as the world’s largest all‑electric ferry, a 139.2‑metre vessel with a 4.3 MWh battery capable of carrying 600 passengers and 200 cars. Over five years it has operated alongside converted ferries Bastø IV and Bastø VI, forming a mixed fleet that now handles roughly 75 percent of the route’s 36,000 daily departures. The route moves about four million passengers and two million vehicles annually across a 10‑kilometre crossing that takes half [...]

Game director Konrad Tomaszkiewicz announced a substantial October patch for The Blood of Dawnwalker that adds a new, easier difficulty level, revamps combat targeting, and improves escape mechanics. The forthcoming “Story” mode will replace the current easiest setting, while the existing Story difficulty will be renamed and sit between Fair and Challenging tiers, giving the game five distinct levels. Targeting quirks tied to stun abilities will be adjusted, allowing smoother target switches and reducing accidental self‑stuns. Performance issues [...]

A new Linux kernel vulnerability, CVE‑2026‑89775, affects the KVM virtualization subsystem on ARM64 platforms with nested virtualization enabled. The flaw arises from an incorrect size calculation that skips a TLB invalidation, leaving a freed host memory page mapped and writable to a guest VM. Researchers demonstrate that a malicious guest can read and write host kernel memory, enabling a VM escape to execute code on the host. The bug is present in mainline kernels from version 6.16 [...]

QuEra Computing and Hewlett Packard Enterprise announced a partnership to embed QuEra’s neutral‑atom fault‑tolerant quantum processors into HPE Cray supercomputers for hybrid quantum‑classical workloads. The collaboration will create testbeds, co‑design algorithms, ensure software interoperability and benchmark system performance, with a long‑term goal of an on‑premises “gigaquop”‑scale machine. Customers will be able to access QuEra’s planned Libra system, a 256‑logical‑qubit fault‑tolerant processor slated for cloud availability in 2028, while also deploying on‑site units for data‑sovereignty or tightly coupled [...]

Monster Hunter series producer Ryozo Tsujimoto told Postmode that Capcom remains interested in a new live‑action adaptation of the franchise despite the 2020 film’s poor performance. The Paul W.S. Anderson‑directed movie earned under $50 million worldwide, scored 45 % on Rotten Tomatoes and has been widely criticized, yet Tsujimoto said the “desire is there” if the right director, partners and timing align. He emphasized that any reboot would require a collaborative effort and a clear vision of what to [...]
