<li><strong>Interlock ransomware exploits Cisco zero day for remote execution</strong>: The Interlock group exploited a critical deserialization flaw (CVE-2026-20131) in Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center 38 days before a patch was available. Amazon’s MadPot honeypot network revealed the attack chain, which involved compromising admin accounts to wipe tens of thousands of devices via Microsoft Intune. CISA is now urging organizations to enforce dual-administrator approval for high-impact actions like remote device wipes. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=kS1FWAP6y&amp;id=N8kFe3mft" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Wasmer launches Edge.js for sandboxed Node.js workloads</strong>: Wasmer has introduced Edge.js, a JavaScript runtime that uses a WebAssembly sandbox via WASIX to isolate system calls and native modules. While it maintains compatibility with existing Node.js applications using V8 or JavaScriptCore, the security overhead currently results in a 30% performance hit compared to native execution. The project aims to provide a safer execution environment for edge computing and untrusted AI-generated code. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/qHzldup0J" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Noq forks Quinn to bring native multipath to Rust QUIC</strong>: The n0 team has announced noq, a hard fork of the Quinn library that implements the full QUIC Multipath specification. This allows relay and direct UDP paths to be treated as first-class concepts, enabling production-grade NAT traversal and address discovery without relying on STUN. The fork was necessary to support deep structural changes for the iroh protocol that were deemed too disruptive for the upstream Quinn maintainers. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/QIgHxnst9" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>

<h2>Bullshit police</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>The vibe coding productivity trap</strong>: Industry hype claims ‘vibe coding’—directing AI agents via natural language—will make implementation a solved problem within months. While Cisco executives brag about rewriting 500k lines of legacy code in a week, they conveniently omit that the output requires ‘extensive validation’ and often contains subtle, destructive flaws. We’re essentially trading deep engineering judgment for a mountain of AI-generated technical debt that looks correct but fails under pressure. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=0hn0P8EbP&amp;id=LJipAqA3r&amp;id=C77DjYGcj" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Broadcom’s VMware death sentence for European providers</strong>: Broadcom’s acquisition of VMware has led to alleged tenfold price increases and the forced closure of the Cloud Service Provider program. CISPE has filed an antitrust complaint, noting that hundreds of providers are being told to either hand over their customers to a handful of ‘authorized’ giants or go out of business. It’s a masterclass in how to extract maximum value from a legacy ecosystem by holding the entire supply chain hostage. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/HHgbdWTEq" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Context rot is the new architectural nightmare</strong>: Researchers have quantified ‘context rot,’ where 60% of facts are irrecoverable after a single compression pass in frontier models. Despite the marketing of massive context windows, models silently violate constraints with full confidence after just a few conversation turns. It turns out that throwing more tokens at the problem doesn’t fix the fundamental inability of transformers to maintain a coherent state over time. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/X2JhFEKeS" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
