GitHub's global advisory database lacks 195 of 618 advisories that self-hosted AI projects published

Munim, Inc.'s census of 30 self-hosted AI projects found 195 of 618 maintainer advisories missing from GitHub's global database under their own IDs. Dependabot and pip-audit read that database. The author infers OSV tools share the gap, and his direct OSV sweep is still running.

Deno's audit --fix left deno.lock untouched on a semver ReDoS with a patched version available

Deno 2.9.7's `deno audit --fix` left deno.lock byte-for-byte identical on a vulnerable semver, a dev.to author reported. The post says --ignore and --frozen-lockfile did the same, so CI needs its own check that a fix happened.

Four September n8n advisories come back 'not found' on OSV.dev and GitHub's database

Two of n8n's three September advisory batches, at least 26 advisories in all, have no CVE IDs, a dev.to post reports. A green scanner report on a self-hosted instance says little until someone checks the version by hand.

OSV.dev returned 'not found' for five vLLM advisories that 0.31.0 fixes

vLLM published more than 30 security advisories on GitHub between 12 September and 9 October, most without a CVE ID, a dev.to author reports. The author's five OSV.dev lookups came back empty, so a clean scanner run says little about any server below 0.31.0.

Open WebUI's 0.11.4 security fixes were still missing from GitHub and OSV advisory records on 11 October

At least 15 Open WebUI advisories fixed in 0.11.4, one a CVSS 8.1 session-token theft, were missing from GitHub's advisory database and OSV on 11 October. Scanners reading those databases can report 0.11.1 to 0.11.3 as clean, a dev.to post found, so operators have to check the version themselves.

Six Angular typosquats on npm claimed the real package's live version, 22.2.1

GitHub flagged six npm typosquats of Angular that claimed the live 22.2.1 version, five pulling a payload through the Wayback Machine. With the version number now correct, the defence has to sit at the package name and at whether install scripts run at all.

AWS's extended SQS and SNS clients inherit Jackson pins from a library last released in March 2024

AWS's Java extended clients for large SQS and SNS messages pull Jackson versions with seven known advisories via a library last released in March 2024. Kotlin services now have ports on Maven Central that take Jackson out of that code path.

Eighteen flagged agent packages still install from npm weeks after the feeds listed them

AgentGate read the shipped code behind 30-plus OSV and GHSA flags, verified 19 npm packages as malicious, and found 18 still resolvable on publication day. Removal, not detection, is where the chain stopped.

CVE-2026-77846 lets one attacker-supplied dot walk AshSqlite's JSON query into private fields

The Erlang Ecosystem Foundation's CNA published the entry on August 30, 2026, and ash_sqlite 0.2.18 escapes the path segments. Exposure comes down to whether your callers get to name the JSON field.

Langflow's share button converts a saved flow into an unauthenticated code execution endpoint

CVE-2026-48519 lets anyone holding a shared Langflow playground link supply their own Python inside the build request. The exposure follows a user clicking share, so it lives in flow state rather than in server config.

Someone enumerated LiteLLM's key tables 36 hours after the advisory hit defender feeds

Sysdig logged a pre-auth SQL injection probe against CVE-2026-42208 from an operator who already had the Prisma schema casing right, which is the argument for putting LLM gateways on the same patch clock as edge appliances.

Kaspersky's CVE surge has two sources, and only one of them lands in the CVE count

Kaspersky's Q2 2026 figures credit AI with both writing the bugs and finding them. The disclosures carrying working exploit code never got a CVE identifier at all.
