Agentic AI pentesting for web, APIs, mobile and LLM apps. Every finding ships with a working PoC. No working exploit, no finding.redpick.aiJoined April 2026
Metabase CVE-2026-72898: the password reset schema didn't reject extra keys, a refactor passed the whole body down, and the query builder ran a {"raw": ...} value as SQL. Unauth admin.
Attacking IPs tripled from Oct 11. Patch, then rotate the DB credentials Metabase holds.
Our MCP server is now in early access. Any MCP-compatible agent can run a real RedPick pentest end to end: check the target is authorized, launch, watch it live, stop it, read exploit-verified findings, request a retest.
Every agent launch lands in the audit trail. #AIsecurity
Tailworm: 11 unpatched findings in Tailscale and headscale, no CVE yet. The worst needs one approved device plus an SSH rule, then socket forwarding done as root gives root on the target.
Lateral movement, not internet RCE. Scope SSH grants per host pair and use Tailnet Lock.
The PHP2Shell bounty box got popped. Yesterday parts of the timeline called CVE-2026-109618/109619 overhyped since nobody had cashed out. Hard to exploit is not safe.
Severity and exploitability are separate questions. RedPick answers the second with a working exploit. #PHP
stealmybitcoin was just solved by @killa. Or rather solved a few hours ago. He was confused because the wallet address was wrong. Turns out the server didn't have the right wallet :P
Node2Shell (CVE-2026-111497): Express 5 and body-parser 2 inflate bodies sent with Content-Encoding: br, so any JSON route can feed attacker Brotli to the buggy decoder, as can fetch() on untrusted URLs. Patch to 22.23.4, 24.22.1 or 26.12.1, or set inflate: false for now. #NodeJS
Laravel's token guard: send a non-string token and on MySQL/MariaDB the lookup can match another user. Fixed Aug 25, disclosed Oct 20, no fix below 12.x. Check auth.php for the "token" driver.
RedPick attacks auth from the outside and backs every finding with a working exploit.
Storm-0940 ran an agentic pentest framework through ConnectWise's already-consented OAuth apps: Graph recon, new app credentials, a self-assigned Global Admin. Sometimes under 3 hours from target to privileged access. Audit what your vendors' apps can do. #AIsecurity
Storm-0940, a China-state aligned actor, used the agentic AI penetration testing framework ARTEX to automate attacks targeting hundreds of organizations globally across a broad range of industries. Several of these Storm-0940 ARTEX-driven attacks have resulted in the actor
Advisory: php.net/index.php#2026…
Every RedPick run now checks exposed PHP versions against this advisory from the outside, without firing the exploit in production: redpick.ai
PHP 8.5.12, 8.4.27, 8.3.36 and 8.2.35 are out: two unauth RCEs (CVE-2026-109618/109619), CVSS 4.0 9.2. On mod_php the demonstrated exploit fires before any app code runs. Config tweaks only narrow some paths. Patch, and remember 8.1 and older get no upstream fix. #PHP
PHP RCE pair CVE-2026-109618/109619: watchTowr says PHP 5 through 8, fixes land today at 14:00 UTC. Use the hours before for inventory: base images, appliances, vendored runtimes, old 5.x and 7.x boxes. EOL branches may get no fix, so plan isolation now. #PHP
‼️ URGENT ‼️ Two CRITICAL, unpatched PHP flaws (CVSS 9.2 each) have triggered an emergency warning after alleged exploit details surfaced online.
Researchers report potential RCE.
CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619.
Fixes scheduled for October 21, 14:00 UTC.

Same two open-source apps, four public AI pentest counts: 49, 31, 52, 55. They don't sit on one axis: each has its own testing mode, counting unit and validator. Ours was black-box only, a URL and credentials, no source. Read the columns first: redpick.ai/blog/black-box…#AppSec
Four bugs that each look mild. Chained they become unauth RCE: SSRF into loopback, owner token theft, then an unsigned codec through dlopen. That is Plex2Shell on Media Server before 1.43.3.10861.
PoC dropped Oct 16. Honeypots were mining Monero by Oct 17. Patch, then check the Codecs folder for persistence that survives a restart.
#AppSec
If you run Plex at home, update it today. Exploit code for a four bug chain that gives unauthenticated code execution on Plex Media Server went public two days ago, and attackers were using it on a honeypot within a day to drop a Monero miner.
Patched builds have been out since
