Forza Horizon 6 to rebalance brutally aggressive AI after fan backlash

Forza Horizon 6 is set to receive AI rebalancing after fans complained that its Drivatar opponents are unfairly fast, especially on higher difficulties. Playground Games says a fix is in the works and will focus on AI balance, with more details to come once developers have something concrete. The update is also reportedly addressing PC launch issues such as AMD framerate problems, audio crackling, and crashes. Players can provide feedback via the Forza portal, and there’s no clear word yet on altering the 1,000-hour maxed-out achievement requirement.

Microsoft patches Defender zero-days actively exploited in the wild

Microsoft released patches for two Defender zero-days—CVE-2026-41091 (privilege escalation in Malware Protection Engine) and CVE-2026-45498 (DoS in Antimalware Platform)—to stop active exploits. The updates install automatically by default, but admins should verify the Malware Protection Engine and Antimalware Platform versions are current. CISA added these flaws to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog and ordered federal agencies to patch by June 3 under BOD 22-01. The piece also notes mitigations for a Windows BitLocker flaw nicknamed YellowKey.

Linux rolls out security fixes with 7.0.8 and updated LTS kernels to close ssh-keysign-pwn

In response to the ssh-keysign-pwn vulnerability that allowed unprivileged users to read root-owned files, Linux released the 7.0.8 stable kernel and updated several LTS kernels (6.18.31, 6.12.89, 6.6.139, 6.1.173, 5.15.207, 5.10.256), incorporating Linus Torvalds’ patch that makes ptrace get_dumpable() logic “slightly saner,” to mitigate the issue across supported releases.

ARC Raiders Patch Triggers Steam Review Fallout

ARC Raiders’ Riven Tides update has sparked a patchy reception, with Steam reviews swinging negative after the patch. On April 29 the tally showed 364 negative versus 221 positive reviews, and the trend has continued, with today’s numbers around 285 negative to 154 positive. The update did little to boost player counts and drew criticism for PvP incentives and weapon durability changes, though the game still holds about 85% positive on Steam due to its strong launch. Insider Gaming notes the patch didn’t move the needle and invites players to discuss on Discord.

Windows Nessus Agent Flaw Could Grant SYSTEM Privileges, Patch Released

A newly disclosed vulnerability in Tenable Nessus Agent for Windows allows a local attacker to abuse NTFS junctions (a type of filesystem symlink) to redirect file operations, potentially delete critical system files, and achieve arbitrary code execution with SYSTEM privileges. A patch has been released (Nessus Agent version 11.1.3); organizations using Nessus Agents on Windows should upgrade immediately to reduce exposure and protect high-value endpoints.

Patch rethink: Slay the Spire 2 nudges baseline difficulty and pauses for Doormaker tweaks

Mega Crit released a beta patch for Slay the Spire 2 aimed at softening the baseline difficulty to make high Ascension runs achievable for more players, while re-evaluating the Doormaker boss after feedback about its abrasiveness. The update adds new badges, reworks several cards (including Drum of Battle, Conflagration, and Parry) and tweaks interactions like Parry’s Block with Sovereign Blade, and it hints at three potential new modes—though none are guaranteed—before any full release.

Microsoft Releases Urgent Patch for ASP.NET Core Privilege Escalation (CVE-2026-40372)

Microsoft Releases Urgent Patch for ASP.NET Core Privilege Escalation (CVE-2026-40372)

Microsoft issued out-of-band updates to fix a critical ASP.NET Core vulnerability (CVE-2026-40372) that could let an attacker escalate to SYSTEM by forging tokens when a vulnerable DataProtection NuGet package (Microsoft.AspNetCore.DataProtection 10.0.0–10.0.6) is loaded at runtime on non-Windows systems. The fix is in ASP.NET Core 10.0.7; exploitation requires the vulnerable package, a non-Windows OS, and the app running with the library loaded. If tokens were issued during the vulnerability window, they remain valid after upgrading until the DataProtection key ring is rotated.

Framerate Patch Makes Overwatch on Switch 2 Playable

Blizzard’s Switch 2 version of Overwatch had a rough launch, but a recent patch nudges its framerate toward 60fps and adds gyro aiming, making it playable on the go—though it isn’t as polished as console or PC and mouse support is still missing. Season 2 brings Sierra, a new damage hero, with a hotfix that makes her ultimate costlier to use while buffing her kit, as Blizzard pursues a plan to add 10 heroes in 2026.
