MOTORSLICE (PC) Review

MOTORSLICE is an action-adventure game developed by Regular Studio that combines hack-and-slash mechanics with parkour elements. The game features a ten-hour storyline where players control P, a Slicer, accompanied by a drone named Orbie. P's mission is to infiltrate "the Megastructure" and dismantle its machines. The game is noted for its intricately designed world, low-poly graphics, and unique parkour mechanics, including the Motorslice feature that allows P to traverse walls using a chainsaw. Players face various challenges and boss battles, though some encounters may feel limited. The game includes collectibles in the form of drones but lacks deeper lore integration. It has some bugs that can disrupt gameplay. Overall, MOTORSLICE is recommended for those who enjoy challenging parkour experiences.

Unpatched flaws turn Ollama’s auto-updater into a persistent RCE vector, researchers say

Researchers at Striga have identified two vulnerabilities (CVE-2026-42248 and CVE-2026-42249) in Ollama’s Windows auto-updater that could allow an attacker to install a persistent executable that runs at user login. CVE-2026-42248 fails to properly verify signatures of downloaded content, while CVE-2026-42249 is a path traversal flaw that allows an attacker to inject malicious code into the user's Startup folder. Exploitation requires control over the update response, with potential methods including compromising the update infrastructure or redirecting the client. The vulnerabilities affect Ollama versions 0.12.10 through 0.17.5, and users are advised to disable auto-updates and remove shortcuts from the Startup folder to mitigate risks.
