AWS publishes bulletin 2026-030-AWS, a single rolling document for the Copy.fail / DirtyFrag Linux kernel privilege-escalation class. If you run Amazon Linux, Bottlerocket, ECS, EKS, EMR, Fargate, or SageMaker, this is the bulletin you bookmark. Security Agent meanwhile learns to read whole repositories.
Week 42 - Oct 12 - Oct 18, 2026
Six new AWS security bulletins this week, led by an Amazon Neptune query-engine issue that its CVE record scores 9.9 (CRITICAL) and a Linux kernel virtio-net/TAP flaw that affects self-managed KVM hosts but not EC2, Lambda or Fargate. On the defensive side, OpenSearch Service gets per-index KMS keys, Security Hub adds resource criticality and the Cyber Risk Institute profile, Secrets Manager rotates Databricks and Twilio credentials, and Transfer Family host keys can live in Secrets Manager.
