vendor advisories

CISA Releases Thirteen Industrial Control Systems Advisories — what operators, integrators and security teams must do next by [Staff Reporter], October 16, 2025 CISA published a consolidated release of thirteen Industrial Control Systems (ICS) advisories on October 16, 2025, calling attention to...

Siemens Solid Edge users and industrial CAD operators must treat a cluster of high‑severity parsing flaws as a live operational risk: multiple vulnerabilities (CVE‑2025‑40809 through CVE‑2025‑40812) in Solid Edge’s PRT file handling can crash the application or allow arbitrary code execution...

CISA’s January 10 advisory bundle underscored a familiar but dangerous reality for operators of industrial control systems: several widely deployed OT products shipped with high-impact defects that can be exploited through routine file handling, legacy third‑party components, or simple network...

Windows 11 users faced a sudden and alarming data‑integrity scare when an August cumulative update was linked to a reproducible failure mode that can make certain SSDs “vanish” from the operating system during sustained, large writes — a problem that can truncate files, corrupt partitions, and...

Microsoft and Phison have now all but closed the book on the late‑August panic: after weeks of community reports, lab reproductions and headlines warning that Windows 11 24H2’s August cumulative (KB5063878) was “bricking” SSDs, thorough vendor and Microsoft testing found no reproducible link...

Two parallel announcements from Meta and Microsoft this week — a patched zero-click vulnerability in WhatsApp and a timetable for mandatory multi-factor authentication across Azure — crystallise a single lesson for enterprise security teams: convenience is no longer an acceptable substitute for...

Phison’s lab says the recent Windows 11 cumulative update is not “breaking” SSDs — but the episode lays bare how fragile modern storage stacks can be, how quickly panic and misinformation spread, and why conservative update practices and strong backups remain non-negotiable. Background /...

Microsoft’s August cumulative update for Windows 11 (KB5063878) has been linked by multiple independent testers and SSD vendors to a troubling storage regression: under sustained, large write workloads some SSDs temporarily vanish from the operating system — and in a subset of reports files...

A wave of community test results and vendor confirmations this week has put the latest Windows 11 cumulative update under a harsh spotlight: several SSDs can disappear from Windows during sustained, large write operations after installing the August 12, 2025 update (KB5063878), with a...

Microsoft and several SSD vendors are investigating reports that the August 12, 2025 cumulative update for Windows 11 24H2 (KB5063878, OS Build 26100.4946) can trigger a reproducible storage regression where some SSDs vanish from the operating system during sustained, large sequential writes — a...

The August cumulative for Windows 11 24H2 (KB5063878) has been linked by multiple independent testers and specialist outlets to a reproducible storage regression that, under sustained large write workloads, can make some NVMe SSDs — and a small number of HDDs in isolated reports — disappear from...

Microsoft’s latest Windows 11 cumulative update has been linked by multiple community tests and vendor advisories to a storage regression that, under specific conditions, can make some NVMe SSDs disappear during large sustained writes — risking data corruption or loss — and has reignited a...

Microsoft’s August cumulative for Windows 11 — KB5063878 (OS Build 26100.4946) — has been linked by independent testers and enthusiast communities to a reproducible and severe storage fault: under sustained large sequential writes (reports center around the 50 GB range), certain NVMe SSDs—and a...

Microsoft’s August Windows 11 patch cycle has produced two very different but equally alarming headlines this week: an emergency mitigation for enterprise update delivery failures, and community reports that the same cumulative update may be triggering storage devices to become unreadable or...

Microsoft's August cumulative update for Windows 11 (KB5063878, OS Build 26100.4946) has been linked in community reports to NVMe SSDs becoming inaccessible after sustained, heavy file writes — an issue that has reopened concerns about storage stability in the 24H2 branch and forced a cautious...

Siemens’ SIPROTEC 5 family has resurfaced in industry advisories after researchers and the vendor disclosed a vulnerability that allows attackers with physical access to exhaust a device’s memory via its local USB port, causing temporary loss of network responsiveness; the issue is tracked as...

Siemens' widely deployed use of Wibu-Systems CodeMeter Runtime has again drawn scrutiny after a local privilege-escalation flaw (CVE-2025-47809) was published that can let an unprivileged user gain elevated access immediately after an unprivileged installation when the CodeMeter Control Center...

Siemens' COMOS engineering platform is again at the center of vendor and national cybersecurity advisories after an out‑of‑bounds write in a third‑party graphics library — tracked as CVE‑2024‑8894 — was linked to COMOS deployments and republished by authorities, raising fresh questions about...

Microsoft has quietly but decisively reworked how Active Directory domain controllers answer certain Netlogon RPC calls — a change rolled into the July and August 2025 cumulative updates that hardens the Microsoft RPC Netlogon protocol, closes an unauthenticated resource‑exhaustion vector...
