Ravie LakshmananJun 20, 2026Vulnerability / Web Security Threat actors are exploiting a recently patched security flaw impacting Gravity SMTP, a WordPress plugin that’s installed on about 100,000 sites. The vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2026-4020 (CVSS score: 5.3), is a medium-severity information disclosure flaw that can allow unauthenticated attackers to extract sensitive data, such as configuration data, API keys, secrets, and OAuth tokens configured for the plugin’s email integrations. “This is due to a REST API endpoint registered at /wp-json/gravitysmtp/v1/tests/mock-data with a permission_callback that unconditionally returns true, allowing any unauthenticated visitor to access it,” Wordfence said. “When the ?page=gravitysmtp-settings query parameter is…
AI investment now reaches into power, cooling, packaging, logistics, and automation, because compute capacity relies on systems that keep hardware operating. The constraints affecting data centre build-outs therefore also affect distributed infrastructure, factory systems, labs, warehouses, and field operations – where edge and IoT teams have to connect equipment, gather data, maintain uptime, and support process control.Cloud companies are increasing capital expenditure for data centres, while semiconductor sales and demand for AI systems continue to rise. McKinsey’s estimate of the potential contribution of generative AI to the economy gives one measure of scale, but the more relevant point is that…
▲ Securing computational design data through 4D scanner Developing wearables with the optimal fit and comfort remains a difficult yet crucial challenge. Not only do these factors make the device feel more seamless to use, but they are directly tied to maximizing overall performance and sensor accuracy. However, the fact that each person’s anatomy is completely unique presents a major hurdle. But what if there was a way to meticulously engineer comfort, fit and sensing so precisely, it could deliver the optimal experience for nearly everyone? Samsung’s solution is Computational Design. This multidimensional process harnesses AI and advanced computing to…
Modern web development requires an ever-growing collection of tools including formatters, linters, bundlers, and plugins. Each tool typically has its own configuration, dependencies, and performance cost. As applications grow more complex, the overhead of maintaining this toolchain becomes a real burden. Biome is an open source toolchain for web projects that brings formatting and linting together in a single fast, opinionated tool. It’s built in Rust and is designed to be a drop-in replacement for Prettier and ESLint, with sensible defaults, minimal configuration, and consistent behavior across the CLI and editor environments. Biome also introduces a module graph that enables…
Spain can rapidly expand renewable energy, but the study shows this is only sustainable if overall material and energy demand is reduced Green energy and the economy illustration (Courtesy: iStock/Galeanu Mihai) Spain’s transition to a low‑carbon economy requires expanding renewable technologies such as wind, solar, and electric vehicles. These technologies depend on specific materials, and demand for materials, such as cobalt, lithium, and nickel, already represents a significant share of Spain’s total use. The researchers analysed how much materials Spain would need up to 2050 under different decarbonisation pathways. They enhanced the MEDEAS‑Spain model by adding sector‑specific material intensities, improving…
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) has become one of the most significant and least governed areas of enterprise technology spend. What began as a faster, more flexible way to consume software has evolved into a complex web of fragmented ownership, overlapping tools, underused licenses, opaque pricing, hidden add-ons, and vendor-led renewals. For Chief Information Officers (CIOs), this is no longer a procurement issue. It is a strategic control issue. Reach out to discuss this topic in depth. The CIO disadvantage The uncomfortable truth is that many SaaS vendors now understand the enterprise’s usage, dependency, renewal risk, and pricing elasticity better than the enterprise itself. That imbalance is costing enterprises money, flexibility, and control. Most CIOs and…
Steven Spielberg’s new sci-fi blockbuster Disclosure Day, which hit theaters June 12, explores what might happen when the world gets undeniable proof that we’re not alone in the universe. While the film is pure Hollywood, the possibility that we may one day see real evidence of UFOs is moving from science fiction toward scientific plausibility.For the past couple of months, the federal government has been declassifying and publishing reports of UAPs, or unidentified anomalous phenomena, on a website operated by the Department of Defense. While the government’s disclosures haven’t provided any actual evidence of extraterrestrial life or alien spacecraft, they signal…
9 Taara Beam swaps mechanical mirrors for a fingernail-sized photonic chip In sum – what we know: Selling the gap – Taara pitches wireless optical links as an “accelerator” that delivers fiber-class capacity in hours while trenching crews catch up, then stays on as backup. Solid-state shift – The new Taara Beam replaces mechanical mirrors with a fingernail-sized photonic chip steering over 1,000 light emitters, though max range halves from 20 km to 10 km. The weather catch – Fog, heavy rain, and dust still degrade free-space optics, keeping WOC in a bridge-and-redundancy role rather than carrying mission-critical traffic alone. Fiber gets all…
Most professionals are not short on ideas. They are short on time. A large part of the workday disappears into activities that feel necessary but repetitive. Emails require responses, meeting notes need follow-up, documents need reviewing, and updates need sharing across teams. The challenge is not limited to a particular role. Marketing teams create content across multiple channels. Business analysts search through reports and presentations. Operations leaders coordinate information across people, systems, and processes. The work is important, but much of it follows the same pattern every week. As AI becomes more common in the workplace, professionals are asking a…
Key Takeaways Incomplete data causes AI hallucinations. Most enterprise AI lacks location context, so it fabricates answers to fill the gaps. A (Model Context Protocol) MCP server gives it verified, real-world data to reason with instead. You don’t need code or GIS expertise to query spatial data. The Precisely MCP server enables you to geocode addresses, assess property risk, pull demographics, and generate site selection reports through plain natural language prompts. The Precisely MCP server is free, built on Anthropic’s open-source MCP, and works across LLMs. It connects to Claude, ChatGPT, and other leading LLMs. Enterprise AI is only as…
