GitLab patches unauthenticated code-execution flaw affecting releases dating to 2014

GitLab released fixes on 21 October for CVE-2026-110264, a critical vulnerability in its regular-expression compiler that could let an unauthenticated attacker run code on self-managed servers. GitLab rates the flaw 10.0, and says versions dating back to 7.0 are affected; it has not reported confirmed attacks.

Bottom line — Self-managed instances need the fixed release for their version line; GitLab.com already runs patched software.

Go deeper 5

GitLab fixed the flaw in versions 18.11.13, 19.0.10, 19.1.9, 19.2.9, 19.3.6, 19.4.3 and 19.5.1.
Rescana and Konfirmity warn that October 12 releases 19.4.2, 19.3.5 and 19.2.8 do not fix this separate vulnerability.
GitLab’s detection rules point to a possible attack path through Org mode files, but say a server crash is not proof of compromise.
GitLab has not published a workaround; Konfirmity says only versions 19.4.3 and 19.3.6 include database migrations.
Konfirmity reports the same researcher found four flaws in GitLab’s regular-expression engine within a month.

Dwarf reed snakes roll at up to 3.7 metres per second to escape predators

Researchers at Toho University analysed video of dwarf reed snakes rolling to flee danger, finding that their heads stay pointed towards travel while their bodies rotate.

Bottom line — The new analysis explains how Pseudorabdion snakes roll at speed, but why some close relatives do not remains unknown.

Tübingen researchers cut toxic SCA3 protein by 90% in lab-grown human neurons

Researchers from DZNE and the Hertie Institute for Clinical Brain Research at the University of Tübingen, with collaborators in Bonn, London and Portugal, tested antisense drugs designed to target the disease-causing copy of the SCA3 gene. In human neurons cultured in the lab, the most effective drug reduced toxic ataxin-3 by about 90% while largely preserving the normal protein, according to the study published in Science Translational Medicine.

Bottom line — The team says it will optimise the drugs and test their safety and efficacy in further studies before considering clinical trials.

AMD revived the Ryzen 7 5800X3D as Lisa Su’s farewell to AM4

AMD product chief Travis Kirsch told Japan’s My Navi Tech+ that Lisa Su proposed bringing back the Ryzen 7 5800X3D as a final upgrade for AM4 owners. He said the plan predated the DDR5 price crunch; restarting production took time because the original chip was no longer being made.

Cambridge researchers project nearly 1 million km² less Arctic winter ice

Researchers from the University of Cambridge and Mexico’s CIMAT used sea-ice biomarkers preserved in sediment from 6,000 years ago to refine projections, finding future Arctic winter ice extent may be nearly 1 million km² lower than earlier estimates. Their study in Nature Geoscience says weighting 27 climate models against the ancient evidence reduced projection uncertainty by 85%.

Bottom line — The revised models also point to potentially greater winter snowfall in southeast Greenland and precipitation in the Mediterranean.

Oil at $110 a barrel pushes up household costs from food to mortgages

Oil reached a five-month high of $110 a barrel, while gas prices in Asia and Europe hit their highest levels since December 2022, Reuters reports. Higher energy costs are feeding through to transport, heating, food packaging and borrowing: UK inflation rose more than expected in August, and the Reserve Bank of Australia raised its cash rate to a 15-year high last month.

Bottom line — The UN Food and Agriculture Organization expects global food inflation to accelerate and persist well into 2027.

Dutch salt marsh flume test finds little erosion, but weaker wave protection in major storms

Researchers moved 306 square metres of Wadden Sea salt marsh into the Delta Flume and exposed it to waves up to 2 metres high. The seabed dropped by an average of just 7 millimetres after 21 hours, but vegetation damage reduced its extra wave attenuation: the Nature study found the strongest effect on coasts with waves up to 1 metre, where it can reach 50 per cent.

Bottom line — The researchers say salt marshes can complement dikes, with vegetation adding up to 50 per cent wave attenuation on lower-energy coasts.

A Switch 2 jailbreak runs custom code, but resets on every reboot

Security researcher Sammy Hajhamid, known as pepsipu, has released ns2jb, a software exploit that runs custom code on Nintendo Switch 2 consoles using firmware 23.0.1. The tethered jailbreak enables homebrew, game modding and save-file backups; Hajhamid demonstrated it by adding custom characters to Mario Kart World. The exploit uses the original Switch game SmileBASIC 4, which GamesRadar+ reports costs €23 (US$25) on the eShop.

Bottom line — Nintendo may remove SmileBASIC 4 from the eShop and patch the vulnerability in a firmware update.

Crocodile relatives tracked warm climates for 250 million years, study finds

A UCL-led study of more than 7,000 fossils and records from over 400 living and extinct species found that crocodile relatives generally followed warm climates, spreading towards the poles in warmer periods and retreating towards the tropics as the planet cooled. The researchers’ climate simulations suggest warm refuges near the equator and in the subtropics remained suitable after the asteroid impact 66 million years ago in all but the most extreme scenario.

Bottom line — The researchers say climate was only part of the explanation: smaller bodies, semi-aquatic lifestyles and flexible diets may also have helped crocodile relatives survive.
