CISA is aware of Ivanti’s disclosure of a newly exploited vulnerability, CVE-2026-104935, affecting Ivanti Connect Secure versions 25.1.1.1 and prior, 25.1.2.2 and prior, and 22.8R2.4 and prior. CISA is aware of cyber threat actors exploiting this zero-day authentication bypass vulnerability, which allows remote, unauthenticated execution of arbitrary commands, to conduct credential theft and data exfiltration. CISA added CVE-2026-104935 to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) Catalog on Oct. 13, 2026. CISA urges organizations with affected Ivanti Connect Secure appliances and deployments to immediately update to the latest version, as outlined in Ivanti’s Security Advisory Ivanti Connect Secure (CVE-2026-104935). Organizations should also review the Ivanti Connect Secure 25.x Upgrade and Migration Compatibility Guide for detailed patching guidance for hardware and virtual appliance deployments. Ivanti Connect Secure version 22.8 reaches end of life on Jan. 31, 2027. Organizations seeking to determine whether they were compromised will need to conduct network and memory forensics to identify evidence of exploitation. Note: Ivanti’s Integrity Checker Tool may not detect evidenc…

Existing benchmarks measure solve rate and token output/cost, but don't punish excess code, which makes a codebase harder to work with in the long term. I wanted to measure this since it matters most for long-term projects. Method: it takes the patches that benchmarks already publish (DeepSWE, SWE-bench Verified, SWE-bench Live) and counts "coding units": syntax elements like statements, calls, names and literals. I didn't use lines of code, so cramming code isn't rewarded. Deleted code is subtracted, so it measures net units. GPT-6 and Claude 5.5 have no public patches yet, so I ran them myself on 3–10 tasks on my own subscriptions (shown as faded circles, not ranked). Any feedback or model contributions are welcome, especially public patch exports for newer models. GitHub: https://github.com/La5u/Parsimony Not affiliated with any of the benchmarks.

Rust's system of ownership and borrowed references is convenient when it can correctly model a program's needs. The Rust for Linux project has worked to provide adapters between Rust's semantics and the existing C code in the kernel. At Kangrejos 2026, Andreas Hindborg spoke about a patch series implementing the next such adaptor: an Ownable trait for representing objects that are allocated in C code, but which Rust code is responsible for cleaning up (if not necessarily deallocating) when it is done with them. He hoped to finally reach a consensus on the patch series, after months of discussion on the mailing list.

PostgreSQL core team member Peter Eisentraut has written a blog post reflecting on the "unusually high number of features" that have been taken out of the upcoming PostgreSQL 19 release since the beta period began. Some of the reverted features had significant architectural defects that would have been hard to fix quickly and during beta. But there was also a long tail of relatively harmless issues involving various edge cases. In past times, many of these would not have surfaced until much later and we would have fixed them bit by bit over the subsequent five years. But with LLM-assisted code review, these kinds of things can get found much faster, and then you're staring at a list of like forty defect reports. And even if each of them requires only a three-line fix on average, there is a fixed overhead to dealing with each of these, and then you run out of time. Most if not all of the affected reverted features were written a long time ago when LLM-assisted code review was not as useful as it is now, meaning that the effective quality bar has been raised after the time the feature was written and committed. Unless the capabilities of LLM-assisted code review keep improving at the…
