GitHub Apps no longer need repository-administration permission just to create repositories. New fine-grained installation controls and token-rotation support reduce the privilege required for integration automation.
Click2Shell turns a theme-preview parsing bug into a supply-path problem: an attacker can force official catalog code onto a site without the administrator choosing Install, then potentially reach executable pre-activation theme code.

Shopify's new Events system can send the change and the data your app needs in one delivery. It's a significant alternative to classic webhooks, but not a forced shutdown or universal replacement yet.

A security fix for a widely used PostgreSQL vector extension makes index-build permissions and extension patching part of AI search infrastructure hygiene.
The important failure is not another prompt injection. Plugin4Shell breaks the mechanism intended to guarantee that an AI-agent plugin is still the exact code a marketplace reviewed.

WordPress 7.0.4 fixes CVE-2026-65640, a CVSS 8.8 remote code execution flaw affecting installations that process malicious PostScript uploads through Imagick and Ghostscript. Fixes have also been backported to branches as old as 4.7.
