Node.js: a fix for a remote code execution flaw in its Brotli compression
Aikido @AikidoSecurity 👀 This week brought a wave of security vulnerabilities. - PHP2Shell: two critical remote code execution flaws in PHP itself - Node.js: a fix for a remote code execution flaw in its Brotli compression - GitLab: a patch for a maximum-severity flaw - LiteLLM: a compromised release carrying an infostealer and a remote access trojan - eMudhra: eight certificates blocked by Google, Mozilla, Apple and Microsoft And that’s not even the whole list. @ AnthropicAI 's Deputy CISO says it’s going to get a lot worse before it gets better. Cyber is business critical now more than ever. We think defenders win after that. The same models get cheap enough to run on every commit, and software stops shipping these bugs. We’re building toward self-securing software. For now, the teams that fix fastest come out ahead. Know what you run, patch it fast and rotate your secrets.

CVE-2026-111497 (high): A Node.js process that decompresses attacker-controlled Brotli data can be made to leak memory or run arbitrary code. You’re exposed if your app or a library decompresses bad Brotli data (e.g. the 1 Aikido @AikidoSecurity 30m Aikido @AikidoSecurity Oct 21 ❗️LiteLLM was compromised (Again). The latest version 1.107.0 contains an infostealer and RAT. All 7 compiled wheels are backdoored. Anyone who ran pip install litellm==1.107.0 on any platform should assume credentials are compromised. More details soon!
