SharePoint’s New Exploited RCE Turns Patching Into Key Rotation Triage
CISA added Microsoft SharePoint Server CVE-2026-58644 to its exploited-vulnerabilities catalog on July 16, two days after Microsoft patched it. Admins should patch, verify AMSI, hunt for machine-key theft, and reduce internet exposure before treating the farm as clean.
IBM Bob Makes AI Coding Costs a First-Class Engineering Metric
IBM’s latest Bob update adds multi-agent development, Bobalytics cost controls, and specialized modernization packages for Java, IBM i, and IBM Z. The move shows how enterprise AI coding tools are shifting from developer assistants into governed software delivery systems.
