GitLab Patches Critical 9.9 AI Gateway Flaw Allowing Command Execution on Self-Hosted Servers

GitLab patched CVE-2026-90970, a critical (CVSS 9.9) flaw in its self-hosted AI Gateway service powering GitLab Duo features. An authenticated user with Duo Agent Platform access could escape the prompt template sandbox via a specially crafted flow configuration, leading to arbitrary command execution on the AI Gateway. Fixes shipped in versions 19.2.4, 19.3.2, and 19.4.1; GitLab-hosted instances are already protected.

The Closed Quorum: Inside the first reported autonomous AI C2 implant

Cisco Talos documented CLOSEDQUORUM, a Windows implant it describes as the first publicly reported autonomous AI command-and-control (C2) malware, discovered via its CAIRN project. The binary delegates its next-action decisions to a quorum of up to four commercial LLMs (DeepSeek, Qwen, Mistral, and Google Gemini) queried in sequence, executing their chosen actions to harvest credentials and crypto wallets without a human operator or dedicated C2 server; Talos has no confirmation of in-the-wild deployment but linked the developer to carding forum postings.
