🔒 AWS Certificate Manager (ACM) now issues public certificates with a 198-day maximum validity, replacing the prior 395-day default to comply with the CA/Browser Forum’s 200-day mandate effective 15 March 2026. No customer action is required: new and renewed public certificates default to 198 days while existing longer-lived certificates remain valid until renewal or expiry. ACM continues to auto-renew certificates (now 45 days before expiry); existing longer-term certificates will renew 60 days before expiry and convert to the 198-day term. AWS also reduced prices for exportable public certificates to reflect the shorter validity.

🔐 The author of Notepad++ says the recently released updates have hardened a previously compromised update mechanism so it is now effectively unexploitable. Releases from 8.8.9 through 8.9.2 add layered checks: the updater now verifies both the signed installer and the signed XML manifest with independent cryptographic signatures and aborts on any anomaly. The auto-updater was reinforced, though users can still opt out during installation. The developer warns no system is absolutely unbreakable, but the changes substantially raise attacker cost.

⚠️ Researchers disclosed an unauthenticated stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-2026-2329) in Grandstream GXP1600-series VoIP phones that can yield remote code execution as root. The flaw lies in the web API endpoint /cgi-bin/api.values.get, where a malformed colon-delimited "request" parameter overruns a 64-byte stack buffer. Affected models include GXP1610/1615/1620/1625/1628/1630; Grandstream released firmware 1.0.7.81 to fix the issue. Rapid7 published a Metasploit module demonstrating exploitation and post-exploitation risks such as credential theft and SIP proxy hijacking.

⚠ A stack-based buffer overflow has been identified in Delta Electronics ASDA-Soft when parsing .par files, allowing an attacker to write data past a stack buffer and corrupt a structured exception handler (SEH). The issue affects versions <= 7.2.0.0 (CVE-2026-1361) and is assigned a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.8 (High). Delta released fixed ASDA-Soft version 7.2.2.0 and published advisory Delta-PCSA-2026-00003; CISA reports no known public exploitation and notes the vulnerability is not remotely exploitable.

⚠️ Siemens has published updates for Simcenter Femap and Simcenter Nastran addressing multiple file‑parsing vulnerabilities in NDB and XDB formats. If a user opens a specially crafted malicious file, affected versions may crash or allow an attacker to achieve arbitrary code execution. Siemens rates the issues as high severity and recommends updating to V2512 or later and avoiding untrusted NDB/XDB files.

🔒 GE Vernova released updates for Enervista UR Setup to address two vulnerabilities. The installer is vulnerable to DLL hijacking (CVE-2026-1762), which could allow administrative code execution when run in directories containing untrusted DLLs. A second issue is a path traversal (CVE-2026-1763) that can overwrite files as the logged-in user. Users should update to version 8.70 or later.

⚠️ Google warns IT administrators that an exploit for a newly disclosed Chrome zero-day (CVE-2026-2441) is active in the wild. The issue is a use-after-free bug in the browser's CSS engine that can allow remote code execution in the renderer sandbox when a user visits a crafted page. Patches are available — update to 145.0.7632.75/76 on Windows/Mac or 144.0.7559.75 on Linux — and Google is limiting technical details until most users are updated. Administrators should prioritize deploying the fixes and monitor browser versions and endpoints closely.

🔧 Microsoft says the February 10, 2026 Patch Tuesday update KB5077181 resolves a bug that left some commercial Windows 11 systems unbootable with an UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME error after failed updates. The problem affected a limited set of physical devices running 25H2 and 24H2 and was linked to an incomplete rollback following a December 2025 security update. An optional preview fix (KB5074105) was released on January 29, 2026 to help prevent further devices from being affected. Systems that became unbootable prior to the February fix may still require manual remediation via Microsoft Support for Business.

⚠️ Developers patched a nearly 30-year-old heap buffer overflow in the libpng image library—fixed in libpng 1.6.55—that can crash applications processing crafted PNG files and, with careful heap grooming, enable information disclosure or remote code execution. The flaw exists in the png_set_quantize function when called without a histogram and with oversized palettes. A proof-of-concept is public; users and distributors should upgrade promptly.

⚠️ CISA has flagged a critical Microsoft Configuration Manager vulnerability (CVE-2024-43468) as actively exploited after Microsoft patched it in October 2024. The flaw is a SQL injection that can allow unauthenticated remote attackers to achieve remote code execution and run commands with elevated privileges on the server or site database. CISA ordered federal agencies to apply the patch or mitigations by March 5 under BOD 22-01 and urged all organizations to secure affected systems immediately.

🔧 Microsoft has deployed a service-side fix for a Family Safety bug that prevented Google Chrome and some other browsers from launching or caused them to crash on Windows 10/11 devices. The problem, first reported in late June 2025, was traced to the service's web-filtering and block-list behavior that misidentified updated browser versions. The rollout began in early February 2026 and should reach affected devices in the coming weeks; users should connect to the Internet to receive the update. Those who cannot go online can enable Activity reporting in Family Safety to receive approval requests and allowlist newer browser versions.
