What happened
Ars Technica security feed covering July 2026 cybersecurity developments, including Windows and Secure Boot zero-days, Linux VM escapes, state-sponsored router and messaging attacks, ransomware, malware, AI-agent and prompt-injection risks, software supply-chain concerns, and post-quantum cryptography migration. Several items describe active exploitation or high-impact vulnerabilities, but the feed does not provide enough technical detail to reliably map most stories to specific CVEs.
