What happened
The feed highlights multiple high-impact security stories: copy.fail (CVE-2026-31431) is a widespread Linux kernel local privilege escalation with a working PoC that abuses AF_ALG and splice() to corrupt page cache across many distributions; researchers disclosed an effective exploit. Independent rowhammer research against Nvidia Ampere GPUs demonstrates GDDR bitflips that can give attackers full control of host systems (requires IOMMU disabled by default in many BIOSes). AI/LLM issues include powerful models (Anthropic Mythos, OpenAI GPT-5.5) that can find software vulnerabilities at scale, L
