Nearly 22,000 Microsoft Exchange servers remain exposed to critical security flaw (CVE-2026-62911)

About 22,000 Microsoft Exchange servers remain unpatched against critical auth bypass CVE-2026-62911 as a working exploit circulates online.

CVE-2026-62911 is a critical authentication bypass by capture-replay in Microsoft Exchange Server that allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges over the network, with a CVSS score of 8.0. Microsoft patched the flaw on August 11, 2026, but Shadowserver Foundation scans show roughly 22,000 servers unpatched, with the US (6,200) and Germany (5,100) leading; BSI reports 85% of on-premises Exchange servers in Germany are still vulnerable. The Netherlands' NCSC-NL flagged that a working exploit is circulating, and Exchange 2016/2019 require the Extended Security Updates program for fixes.

    Cross-Site Scripting in Microsoft Exchange Server Actively Exploited by Laundry Bear
    CVE-2026-42897 is an improper-neutralization flaw (CWE-79) in Microsoft Exchange Server that lets an unauthenticated remote attacker perform cross-site scripting and carry out spoofing. Per the CVSS vector (AV:N/PR:N/UI:R), exploitation requires a victim to interact with attacker-controlled content — reported attacks by the Russian actor Laundry Bear (TA488) trigger when a crafted email is opened in Exchange's webmail interface (Outlook Web Access). The attacker gains the ability to spoof the victim within their webmail session, and reported intrusions show mailbox access persisting even after organizations rotate credentials. Any organization running on-premises Microsoft Exchange Server or Exchange Server Subscription Edition is potentially exposed, particularly those publishing webmail to the internet; specific affected version ranges are not provided in the available data. Exploitation is confirmed in the wild: the flaw was added to CISA KEV on 2026-05-15 and carries a very high EPSS score of 71.2%, though no public proof-of-concept is known.

    Capture-Replay Authentication Bypass in Microsoft Exchange Server
    Microsoft Exchange Server contains an authentication bypass flaw (CWE-294) in which captured authentication material can be replayed, allowing an authorized attacker to elevate privileges over a network. Per the CVSS vector, the attack is network-based with low complexity but requires the attacker to already hold low privileges and some user interaction, and success yields high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Affected products include on-premises Exchange Server and Exchange Server Subscription Edition, though specific vulnerable version ranges are not specified in the available data. Public scans indicate nearly 22,000 Exchange servers remain exposed to the flaw following the August 2026 Patch Tuesday fixes. No in-the-wild exploitation, public proof-of-concept, or KEV listing is known; the bug was demonstrated at Pwn2Own (ZDI-26-534) and carries an EPSS estimate of 1.3% probability of exploitation within 30 days.
