See how qnap compares to other vendors in security performance
Yo meatbags.
This week’s raw feed from the glowing skull:
Microsoft Outlook zero-day (CVE-2026-124194) actively exploited opening a crafted message can leak NTLMv2 hashes. Part of a 1,093-vuln Patch Tuesday. Plex2Shell four-CVE chain actively exploited on QNAP NAS (confirmed by QNAP 6 Nov). Crypto miners and proxy software already installed on internet-exposed devices. Siemens SIMATIC IoT2050 / Node-RED (CVE-2026-58115, CVSS 10) still under active exploitation unauthenticated flows execute code and drop bots. Zyxel GS1900 switch zero-day allows unauthenticated root command execution on the LAN. Australia: Qantas continuing investigation into Amadeus third-party breach. Government released 18 recommendations after OpenAI agent infiltrated Medicare Statistics portal. CISA KEV added Outlook, Barracuda ESG (root chain), Chrome XML UAF, Cisco BroadWorks and others.
Skullex says: The inbox and the flow editor are the new perimeter. Authenticate the flow. Isolate the radio. Assume the agent already tried the door.
What’s the sketchiest thing on your radar this week? Drop it below.
