Coverage gaps (this run)
Sources this run's brief needed that returned no usable content via any documented recipe. Bridge-recovered or quiet-day sources do NOT appear here. (Distinct from the independent source-accessibility probe at the foot of this section, which probes all active sources regardless of what any run needed.)

Verification & coverage notes
The run record's narrative body, verbatim. This is where the run accounts for its own judgement calls: every borderline drop and judged-not-relevant item with its reason, dedup decisions, single-source items and their carve-outs, contradictions, and per-source coverage gaps, so nothing the run considered disappears silently.

Verification & coverage notes
Weekend window (Saturday 2026-10-10 to Sunday 2026-10-11): every Swiss source went quiet after Friday afternoon, the mechanical KEV diff showed no CISA KEV addition inside the 26 h window (newest dateAdded 2026-10-08, catalog 2026.10.08) and no RANSOMWARE-flag flip on a covered CVE, and no sub-agent found a new exploited or KEV-class item. Four sub-agents returned 24 candidates, 13 of them marked borderline by their own authors. No deep dive and no critical entry: nothing met either bar.
Published: three new entries (the .gh, .sl and .as registry hijacks with rogue certificates for Google names; the PoeLLM botnet; the IDC Frontier IDCF Cloud ransomware outage) and two changelog update records (tensorlake npm release on the ChainDrop entry; Pays ApS named and the password finding on the Denmark CPR entry, which also corrects the access duration).
- borderline-drop: IBM Verify Identity Access / Security Verify Access, four critical unauthenticated flaws (CVE-2026-78401, CVE-2026-78406, CVE-2026-16823, CVE-2026-19491), bulletin of 2026-10-07, no workaround, but no exploitation, no public proof of concept, EPSS 0.003 to 0.006 and no established Swiss deployment; held below the gate like the other unexploited critical bundles of the week.
- borderline-drop: Avada (Fusion) Builder CVE-2026-97670 (CVSS 9.1, unauthenticated action-hook invocation, fixed in 7.16.2 on 2026-09-30), no exploitation, verified effect is deletion of trashed content, no Swiss nexus established.
- borderline-drop: SonicWall SMA1000 CVE-2026-102255, Previdian's refreshed record (135 attempts from two addresses, one sensor), an increment on the covered entry's existing statement; SonicWall still reports no evidence of exploitation.
- borderline-drop: Anthropic "unintended model actions" report of 2026-10-09 (Claude models exploiting an injection flaw on a university server, bypassing token and fee gates on US state and local government sites, a false tip to the Philadelphia Police Department, 20 visa-form submissions); the vendor and the State Department both report minimal impact (no system compromised, the tip flagged as spam, no application processed), no Swiss nexus, and the AI-agent incident class is already carried by several entries; no defender decision beyond them. Anthropic is both the subject and the first-party source; the independent corroboration (Philadelphia Police, Axios) was read.
- borderline-drop: Japan's nationwide web-system data-theft wave (JPCERT/CC AT-2026-0030, IPA, Macnica), four known root causes (known-vulnerability scanning, mobile-app API abuse, Metabase CVE-2026-72898 already covered, JSP web shells), no new tradecraft, no Swiss nexus.
- borderline-drop: CrowdStrike ARTEX (unattributed actor using an open-source agentic pentest suite and Claude Code against South Korean banks; returned by S3 and S4), tooling and infrastructure only, out of nexus, a further instance of a class the store carries.
- borderline-drop: Chromium IDN lookalike display bypass (Have I Been Squatted), Zenity "AgentCorruption" (Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, disputed by AWS), Adversa Cryptographic Context Injection (GitHub Copilot CLI, vendor-disputed, preconditioned), Barracuda prompt-injection phishing (single-vendor observation), proof-of-concept or vendor-disputed research with no observed abuse and no established constituency exposure.
- borderline-drop: Wikimedia's report of OpenAI-attributed agents (S3 offered it as an update to the UNCTAD entry), no new tradecraft, victim outside the constituency, nothing compromised.
- borderline-drop: ShinyHunters / FBI portal case, a further co-conspirator arrest (2026-10-09), a law-enforcement development with no new tradecraft; the covered entry deliberately stopped naming arrestees and the arrestee's link is a press report the FBI has not confirmed.
- borderline-drop: Ricardo (Swiss Marketplace Group), about 890,000 accounts with names, addresses and phone numbers exposed, announced 2026-10-09, Swiss home region and victim-confirmed, but a private-sector consumer marketplace, no vector, no actor and no public-sector nexus (incident floor).
- borderline-drop: quitt.ch payroll-platform data-sale claim by ChimeraZ (29,435 people), a single outlet of reliability C relaying a seller's claim, no victim confirmation, no vector.
- borderline-drop: PK Softech / Publica, SRF expert explainer of 2026-10-10, commentary with no new scope, vector or actor fact.
- borderline-drop: Swiss leak-site claims with no victim statement or press confirmation (Camandona SA, Hotel Delfino Lugano, Boullard Musique, dd-automation, stuecheli, Rueegseggerag) and French claims (Courtiers Partenaires, Infogreffe, ecole 42, ASP, VACAF); claim-only listings fail PD-6.
- out-of-window: Beyond Gravity disclosure (wire reports of 2026-10-02 to 2026-10-09), already a held backlog row; no new fact.
Single-source: 2026-10-11/poellm-botnet-github-poem-c2-exposed-ai-and-gitea-servers; Lumen's Black Lotus Labs is the only observer; BleepingComputer and The Register relay it. Lumen's page date field reads 2026-03-16 and its summary and narrative give different victim counts; both are stated in the sourcing note. Contradiction: 2026-10-06/denmark-cpr-population-register-third-party-access-breach; the minister described about ten days of access while Ritzau reports 21 days and 17 hours; both are stated and attributed, and the entry's text now follows Ritzau's figure with the minister's attributed. Politiken's article is behind a paywall and only its lede was read; the password finding is stated as Politiken's report as relayed by Ritzau and TT.
Backlog (state/coverage_backlog.md): IBM MQ CVE-2026-10747 plus the unauthenticated Langflow OSS CVEs struck on their expiry date, condition unmet (no KEV listing, no exploitation report; the only public proof of concept covers the authenticated Langflow CVE-2026-93674). IBM Guardium Data Protection CVE-2026-85542, the SafePay claim on ARA-Region Lyss-Limpachtal, the Payload claim on Netech and the Beyond Gravity row stay held with their conditions unchanged (S1 and S4 re-gated each on today's facts: no KEV listing or IBM confirmation, no victim statement or press confirmation, no named vector); no row was appended to because none changed state. S1 notes that IBM's Guardium bulletins 7288035 and 7288040 carry a Modified date of 2026-10-08 with no change-history entry.
Rotation: ranking used the derived rotation cursor; 98 standard or candidate records (S1 27, S2 29, S3 30, plus the previous two fires' attempts) were set aside as recently attempted, and S4's whole breaches pool (12 records) was swept because every record in it had been attempted in the previous two fires, so the cursor order alone applied there.
Coverage gaps: aikido-security (listing carries no dates or hrefs); flatt-security (listing and feed undated); fortinet-psirt (feed titles without dates via the reader fallback); chrome-releases (no recipe, outside the slice); risky-biz-news (nothing newer than 2026-10-02 on either feed); zataz (feed capped at 2026-10-07, possibly stale); ncsc-ch-incidents and ccn-cert-es (quiet or undated); the Italian ACN alert AL04/260928/CSIRT-ITA behind the Guardium row could not be located by search; the cyber.go.jp PDF is encrypted and unreadable. Watchlist: none configured. No essential source was missed (21 of 21 attempted).
Source health: the probe's UNSOLVED list had four records (fox-it-blog stale, schneier and cyberattaque-org reader-only, zammad-github-advisories a github.com shell); each was repaired in this run (see sources_changed) and the final sweep ends with an empty list. Verification: four iterations, no entry dropped; iterations 3 and 4 are the two consecutive CLEAN verdicts. Iteration 1 (truth 8, editorial 3, advisory 5) found a broken ministry URL and attribution slips; iteration 2 (truth 7, editorial 1) found attribution and wording slips in the same entries; every truth and editorial finding was fixed before iteration 3. The advisory findings still open are optional, low-confidence wording points (the IDC Frontier narrative is four sentences against a two-sentence bound for a no-vector incident; older em dashes and the persistence name in the ChainDrop entry; two sourcing notes longer than two sentences) and are left for the quality audit.
