What admins should do now
- Affected? Check whether Ray-Project Ray is in use and which version runs (package manager, admin UI,
--version). - Apply the vendor patch or workaround as soon as it exists. If that is not possible right away: restrict outside access (firewall, VPN, reverse proxy).
- Review logs back to 17 August 2026: unusual logins, new files, unexpected processes, outbound connections.
- If you suspect a compromise: isolate the system, rotate credentials, check the last backup from before the incident.
The deadline applies to US federal agencies. It is still a useful yardstick for everyone: when a flaw is attacked in the wild, waiting is not an option.
