CISA added seven actively exploited vulnerabilities to its KEV catalog, including SonicWall SMA 1000 SSRF CVE-2026-83548, amid campaigns deploying reverse shells and crypto miners.
CISA's KEV additions cover flaws in SonicWall SMA 1000 (CVE-2026-83548, CVE-2026-83549), Sangoma Switchvox (CVE-2026-9586), JFrog Artifactory (CVE-2026-82329), Kludex Starlette (CVE-2026-48710), Kestra OSS (CVE-2026-49869) and Berri LiteLLM's MCP endpoint (CVE-2026-59822). SonicWall confirmed active exploitation of the SMA 1000 flaws, while Microsoft and Wiz reported attackers chaining LiteLLM flaws CVE-2026-42271 and CVE-2026-48710 to fingerprint hosts, steal provider API keys and deploy XMRig miners on AI infrastructure. Wiz linked exploitation of the LiteLLM chain to the Qilin ransomware group, and Microsoft detailed a Kestra compromise chain ending in cryptocurrency mining and data harvesting via exposed RAGFlow flaws.
New SonicWall SMA 1000 zero-days enable unauthenticated remote code execution, with exploitation observed following earlier summer attacks on other SonicWall edge zero-days.
Zero-day vulnerabilities in SonicWall's SMA 1000 secure access appliances allow unauthenticated remote code execution, and exploitation activity is being observed. This follows attacks earlier in the summer that abused two other zero-day vulnerabilities in SonicWall edge devices. Internet-facing appliances used for remote access make this an urgent patching priority for defenders.
SonicWall warns attackers are chaining two SMA1000 zero-days, a CVSS 10.0 SSRF and command injection, to compromise VPN gateways.
SonicWall says attackers are actively exploiting two chained zero-days in SMA 1000 appliances: CVE-2026-83548, a pre-authentication SSRF rated CVSS 10.0, and CVE-2026-83549, a post-authentication OS command injection (CVSS 7.8) in the Appliance Management Console. Hotfixes are available for SMA 6210, 7210, and 8200v appliances with no workarounds; SonicWall recommends reimaging compromised devices, rotating passwords, and resetting TOTP tokens. NHS England assesses further exploitation as almost certain, following a similar exploited pair in July when CISA added CVE-2026-15409 to its KEV catalog.
SonicWall patches two actively exploited zero-days (CVE-2026-83548, CVE-2026-83549) in SMA 1000 VPN appliances, likely chained for code execution.
SonicWall fixed CVE-2026-83548 (CVSS 10.0), a pre-authentication SSRF in the Appliance Work Place interface, and CVE-2026-83549 (CVSS 7.8), a post-authentication OS command injection in the Appliance Management Console. The company investigated a case indicating active exploitation, suggesting attackers chained both bugs to execute arbitrary code on susceptible devices. Affected SMA 1000 models 6210, 7210, and 8200v require hotfixes 12.4.3-03526 or 12.5.0-02952; customers are urged to hunt for IoCs and re-image, reset credentials, and rotate TOTP if found.
SonicWall confirms active exploitation of zero-day SSRF (CVE-2026-83548) and command injection (CVE-2026-83549) flaws in SMA 1000 remote access appliances.
SonicWall confirmed attackers are actively exploiting two previously undisclosed vulnerabilities in SMA 1000 SSL VPN appliances, affecting physical and virtual models 6210, 7210, and 8200v but not SMA 100 appliances or SonicWall firewalls. CVE-2026-83548 is a pre-authentication SSRF in the Appliance Work Place interface allowing remote unauthenticated attackers to gain unauthorized access to sensitive functionality, while CVE-2026-83549 is an OS command injection in the Appliance Management Console that can yield remote code execution under specific conditions for authenticated admins. The vendor urged immediate hotfix deployment, IoC review with technical support, and re-imaging or redeployment plus password and TOTP token resets on confirmed compromise. This is the latest in a series of zero-day attacks against SMA 1000 appliances following waves in late 2025 and June-July 2026.
Pre-Authentication SSRF in SonicWall SMA1000 Appliance Workplace Interface
CVE-2026-83548 is a critical (CVSS 3.1 score 10.0) server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in the Workplace interface of SonicWall SMA1000 appliances, caused by an unintended alternate access path (unprotected alternate channel, CWE-441; SSRF, CWE-918). Because it is pre-authentication, any remote unauthenticated attacker who can reach the interface can trigger it and gain unauthorized access to sensitive functionality and perform unauthorized operations. CISA lists all SonicWall SMA1000 appliances as affected, with CPE data naming the SMA 8200v and SMA 6210/7210 firmware; internet-exposed units are at highest risk. The flaw is being actively exploited in the wild: it was added to CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on 2026-09-02 alongside companion zero-day CVE-2026-83549, which reporting suggests may form an attack chain with this SSRF. Exploitation probability is elevated (EPSS 4.7%, 91st percentile) and no public proof-of-concept is known.
Authenticated OS Command Injection RCE in SonicWall SMA1000 Appliance Console
CVE-2026-83549 is a post-authentication OS command injection flaw (CWE-78) in the Appliance Management Console (AMC) of SonicWall SMA1000 appliances. An attacker who authenticates to the AMC with administrator privileges can, under specific conditions, inject arbitrary operating system commands and achieve remote code execution on the appliance. Only organizations running SMA1000-series appliances, including the SMA 6210, SMA 7210, and SMA 8200v models cited in the data, are affected. CISA added the flaw to the KEV catalog on 2026-09-02, and news reports describe active exploitation, possibly chained with companion zero-day CVE-2026-83548, with reverse shells and cryptocurrency miners observed; no public proof-of-concept is known. EPSS assigns an 8.5% probability of exploitation within 30 days (95th percentile).

Unauthenticated SSRF in SonicWall SMA1000 Appliances
CVE-2026-15409 is a server-side request forgery (SSRF, CWE-918) in the Appliance Work Place interface of SonicWall SMA1000 series appliances. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can trigger the flaw over the network, causing the appliance to issue requests to attacker-influenced or unintended internal locations. Because the CVSS vector scores scope-changed impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability, the SSRF is assessed as capable of reaching sensitive internal services, and reporting indicates it is being used alongside a second SMA1000 zero-day in what may be an exploitation chain. Affected organizations are those running SMA1000 appliances, including SMA 6210, SMA 7210, and SMA 8200v models, which typically act as internet-facing remote-access/VPN gateways. Exploitation is confirmed in the wild: the flaw was added to CISA's KEV on 2026-07-14, ransomware use is known, and EPSS assigns an 83.7% probability of exploitation within 30 days, though no public PoC is available.
Improper Authentication in JFrog Artifactory Allows Unauthenticated Admin Access
JFrog Artifactory contains an improper authentication flaw (CWE-287) that, under the product's default configuration, can let an unauthenticated attacker with network access obtain administrative privileges. The weakness is reachable over the network with no privileges or user interaction required, which is why it carries a critical 9.8 CVSS 3.1 score; an attacker who succeeds effectively gains full administrator control of the artifact repository, and public reporting describes attackers using the flaw to mint admin tokens days after disclosure. Any organization running JFrog Artifactory is in scope — CISA's entry lists the product without version detail, so deployments should verify their versions against JFrog's advisory (AV26-867, Update 1) — with internet-exposed instances at greatest risk. Exploitation is confirmed in the wild: CISA added the CVE to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog on 2026-09-02, a public proof-of-concept is available, and news headlines report active exploitation alongside related Artifactory flaws CVE-2026-42016 and CVE-2026-42018.
Authentication bypass leading to unauthenticated RCE in Kestra OSS
CVE-2026-49869 is a critical (CVSS 3.1: 10.0) authentication bypass in the open-source Kestra event-driven orchestration platform: the AuthenticationFilter exempts the public configuration endpoint from Basic Auth using a suffix match (request paths ending in "/configs") rather than an exact path comparison. As a result, an unauthenticated remote attacker can call any API URL whose final path segment is "configs", which is enough to create and execute arbitrary workflows without credentials. Because Kestra ships with script execution plugins (plugin-script-shell, plugin-script-python, etc.) enabled by default, this directly yields unauthenticated remote code execution as root inside the Kestra worker container. All Kestra OSS deployments prior to 1.0.45 and 1.3.21 are affected, with the greatest risk for instances whose API is reachable from the internet or untrusted networks. The flaw is being actively exploited: CISA added it to the KEV catalog on 2026-09-02 (EPSS 1.9%, percentile 79), and headlines covering the KEV batch report attackers deploying reverse shells and crypto miners.

Unauthenticated SQL Injection RCE in Sangoma Switchvox SMB Edition
Sangoma Switchvox SMB Edition 8.3 (build 104997) contains an unauthenticated SQL injection flaw (CWE-89) in its /pa endpoint, where the user-controlled PhoneIP value from XML input is concatenated directly into PostgreSQL queries without sanitization or parameterization. A single crafted request lets a remote, unauthenticated attacker execute arbitrary SQL statements against the backend PostgreSQL database, which can be escalated to remote code execution on the server. Any organization running the affected Switchvox SMB Edition build is exposed, especially appliances reachable from the internet. Exploitation is confirmed in the wild: the flaw was added to CISA's KEV catalog on 2026-09-02, and researchers have observed attackers using it without credentials to deploy reverse shells and cryptocurrency miners.
Unauthenticated MCP Endpoint Authentication Bypass in BerriAI LiteLLM
BerriAI LiteLLM, a widely used self-hosted AI gateway and proxy server for calling LLM APIs, fails to properly authenticate requests to its MCP Streamable HTTP endpoint in versions prior to 1.84.0. An unauthenticated attacker can send a fabricated Authorization header that triggers an OAuth2 passthrough fallback, which replaces failed LiteLLM key validation with an empty UserAPIKeyAuth() object and lets the request reach MCP tooling without any valid LiteLLM key. Successful exploitation grants unauthenticated access to the gateway's MCP tooling with high confidentiality impact per the CVSS 4.0 score of 8.8, and public reporting describes attackers chaining LiteLLM weaknesses from authentication bypass to root code execution and cloud credential theft. Any organization running LiteLLM before 1.84.0 is affected, particularly gateways exposed to the internet. The flaw is confirmed exploited in the wild: CISA added it to the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on 2026-09-02, while EPSS currently estimates a 0.9% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days.

HTTP Request Smuggling in Kludex Starlette (CVE-2026-48710)
Kludex Starlette prior to version 1.0.1 did not validate the HTTP Host request header before using it to reconstruct request.url, an inconsistency classified as HTTP request/response smuggling (CWE-444). Because routing operates on the raw ASGI scope path while request.url is rebuilt from the unvalidated Host header, an attacker can send a malformed Host header so that request.url.path differs from the path the router actually processed. Any middleware or endpoint that enforces security restrictions based on request.url rather than the raw scope path can then be tricked into approving requests that should have been blocked, bypassing those controls. All Starlette deployments below 1.0.1 are affected, both direct users and downstream products that bundle the library, including Red Hat offerings such as Ansible Automation Platform, OpenShift AI, OpenShift Lightspeed, Satellite, AI Inference Server, Migration Toolkit for Applications, and Enterprise Linux AI. CISA added the flaw to the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on 2026-09-02, confirming active exploitation; related reporting describes attackers deploying reverse shells and crypto miners, and EPSS ranks it in the 98th percentile with a 36.3% probability of exploitation within 30 days.
