Dawnwalker's First Major Patch Brings Easier Mode, Refined Combat, and More

The Blood of Dawnwalker is getting its first big patch in early October, introducing a brand-new, easier Story mode that will replace the current one (the old Story will be renamed Story-renamed) and expanding the difficulty set to five: Story, Story-renamed, Fair, Challenging, and Duelist. The patch also includes major combat tweaks (targeting and camera improvements, and a fix for stun targeting), better escape mechanics with navigation being adjusted, and potential additions like a New Game Plus and new enemies. Performance and balance tweaks are being addressed based on player feedback, and the update is described as being near completion.

The patch comes before the official release and, while patch notes don’t mention the minigame, community posts confirm its removal; the developers have not publicly commented on the change yet.

Plex Urges Immediate Patch to Fix Unnamed Flaws in Media Server and Desktop Apps

Plex is urging users to urgently patch Plex Media Server to version 1.43.3 and Plex Desktop to 1.115.0 after identifying multiple security issues in older releases (pre-1.43.3/1.115.0).

Dawnwalker Day-One Patch Delivers Performance Boost Across Platforms

Day-One Update 1.003 for The Blood of Dawnwalker improves launch performance across PS5 Pro, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC with frame-generation tech and DLSS/FSR options; consoles target 60fps (Pro) / 40fps (Balanced) / 30fps (Quality). The patch is mainly performance-focused and isn’t a fix-all; a follow-up bug-fix patch and small free DLCs are planned post-release. Note: FSR frame generation can crash on ultrawide/non-16:9 setups (DLSS recommended), may cause flicker if FPS exceeds refresh rate, and changes require restarting the game.

Active zero-day exploit hits PaperCut NG/MF; emergency patches and access controls urged

Emergency patches have been released, and admins are urged to restrict web interfaces to trusted IPs or via firewall rules.

Citrix pushes urgent NetScaler patches to close two critical flaws

Citrix is urging admins to urgently patch NetScaler ADC and Gateway to fix two high-severity flaws (CVE-2026-19490 auth bypass and CVE-2026-19489 DoS via SIP ALG). Upgrades to specific builds (14.1-73.32+, 13.1-63.21+, including FIPS/NDcPP variants) are advised; admins should review the security bulletin, assess exposure, and apply updates promptly, as past NetScaler CVEs have been exploited in the wild and millions of instances remain exposed.

Halo: Campaign Evolved patch closes LASO glitch, but co-op may still offer a loop

Halo: Campaign Evolved patch closes LASO glitch, but co-op may still offer a loop

Halo: Campaign Evolved’s August 17 update blocks the LASO and Mix Master achievement glitches by ensuring progress is not awarded incorrectly when restricted Skulls or difficulty modifiers are used, effectively killing the solo-glitch route. However, early reports suggest online co-op may still allow the LASO Mythic achievement to unlock for non-host players, meaning the loophole could persist in that mode. The patch also adds options to disable chromatic aberration and film grain, improves PC upscaling, and fixes a slew of issues (Sgt. Johnson in Boarding Action, weapon behavior, Active Camo, and more), plus a new Recompilation Armor skin via Halo Waypoint.
