GitHub Flaw Enables Remote Code Execution With a Single Git Push

A vulnerability in GitHub’s infrastructure could have allowed attackers to execute code on backend systems using nothing more than a standard git push command.  The flaw affected both GitHub.com and GitHub Enterprise Server (GHES), exposing millions of repositories to potential compromise before it was patched. “By exploiting an injection flaw in GitHub’s internal protocol, any…

Microsoft releases open-source toolkit to govern autonomous AI agents

AI agents can book travel, execute financial transactions, write and run code, and manage infrastructure without human intervention at each step. Frameworks like LangChain, AutoGen, CrewAI, and Azure AI Foundry Agent Service have made this kind of autonomy straightforward to deploy. The governance infrastructure to match that autonomy has lagged behind. Microsoft released the Agent…

Researchers warn of unpatched, critical Telnetd flaw affecting all versions
