CISA Adds KNX Protocol CVE-2023-4346 to KEV Catalog

CISA added CVE-2023-4346 affecting KNX Association KNX Protocol Connection Authorization Option 1 to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on 2026-07-15. Federal agencies must finish remediation by 2026-07-29. The overly restrictive account lockout mechanism could let attackers purge devices and set a BCU key when extra security options remain disabled, so organizations must apply vendor mitigations under BOD 26-04.

Report: OnePlus to Pull Out of US and Europe

Bloomberg reports that OnePlus will exit the U.S. and European smartphone markets as part of restructuring at owner Oppo, with the move possibly starting as soon as this week. The brand's earlier popularity has faded while Chinese suppliers face mounting pressure from memory chip costs and declining shipments in key regions.

Samsung reveals tougher Flex Titanium foldable screen

Samsung has introduced Flex Titanium, a thinner and mechanically stiffer foldable display that reduces visible creases and power consumption. The panel, built on experience from seven prior generations, will launch in the Galaxy Z Fold 8 series and may supply Apple’s expected folding iPhone.
