On October 22, the Administration for Cyber Security (ACS), MODA urged public and private sectors to accelerate patching: Node.js patched 10 vulnerabilities—including 4 high-severity flaws—among which CVE-2026-111497 is an out-of-bounds write in Brotli decoding that may lead to remote code execution, fixed in versions 22.23.4, 24.22.1, and 26.12.1 [1]. Go released versions 1.27.3 and 1.26.10 to blocklist 8 intermediate certificates from an Indian certificate authority whose private keys were compromised, requiring existing Go applications to be recompiled and redeployed [1].
