Google Patches Pixel Modem Zero-Day Exploited in Targeted Attacks
Google patched Pixel modem zero-day CVE-2026-58704 (CVSS 8.0), exploited in limited targeted attacks, enabling adjacent privilege escalation without user interaction.
Google's September 2026 Pixel security update fixes CVE-2026-58704, a CVSS 8.0 permission bypass caused by a logic error in the cellular modem, allowing remote (proximal/adjacent) elevation of privilege with no user interaction or additional privileges. Google confirms indications of limited, targeted exploitation in the wild but provides no attribution, target count, or attack objectives. The modem location is significant because it operates below much of the Android application security model. The bulletin also patches multiple critical RCE flaws in IMS, libpixelimsmedia, VPU, modem, telephone and BigOcean components, with the 2026-09-05 patch level protecting devices.

Google Patches Pixel Modem Flaw Amid Signs of Limited Targeted Exploitation
Google's September Pixel update patches CVE-2026-58704, a high-severity cellular modem privilege escalation flaw showing signs of limited targeted exploitation.
Google disclosed CVE-2026-58704 (CVSS 8.0), a privilege escalation flaw in the Pixel Cellular Modem caused by a logic error permitting proximal/adjacent privilege escalation with no user interaction or extra privileges needed. Google acknowledged indications the flaw may be under limited, targeted exploitation but did not identify the threat actor. The September 2026 Pixel update fixes 109 additional flaws, including 46 critical-severity issues in components such as BigOcean, Bootloader, IMS, and Trusted Execution Environment, plus two high-severity kernel privilege escalation bugs (CVE-2026-56914, CVE-2026-58773). Security patch level 2026-09-05 or later resolves all identified flaws.

Android 0-day Vulnerability on Google Pixel Devices Actively Exploited in Attacks
Google patched CVE-2026-58704, an actively exploited Android zero-day allowing proximal privilege escalation via the Pixel cellular modem, urging the 2026-09-05 patch.
Google confirmed CVE-2026-58704, a high-severity elevation-of-privilege flaw in the Pixel cellular modem, is being exploited in limited, targeted attacks and shipped emergency fixes in the September 2026 Pixel Update Bulletin. The low-complexity bug requires no user interaction and enables proximal/adjacent privilege escalation with no additional execution privileges, phrasing Google has historically used for spyware-vendor and state-aligned zero-days. The Pixel bulletin patches 110 flaws including 12 critical RCEs, while the broader September Android update addressed roughly 180 vulnerabilities, including Wi-Fi memory-corruption bug CVE-2026-28662.

Keys to the Kingdom: Erlang/OTP SSH Vulnerability Analysis and Exploits Observed in the Wild
Attackers actively exploit CVE-2025-32433, a CVSS 10.0 unauthenticated RCE in Erlang/OTP SSH, heavily targeting OT and critical infrastructure networks.
CVE-2025-32433 enables unauthenticated RCE in Erlang/OTP's SSH daemon via SSH connection protocol messages (codes >= 80) processed before authentication, affecting versions before OTP-27.3.3, OTP-26.2.5.11 and OTP-25.3.2.20. Unit 42 recorded a spike in exploitation between May 1-9, 2025, with 70% of detections on firewalls protecting OT networks, disproportionately affecting healthcare, agriculture, media and high technology. Observed payloads bind TCP-connected shells or launch Bash reverse shells to hosts like 146.103.40.203:6667, with randomized DNS lookups under dns.outbound.watchtowr.com indicating OAST-driven blind RCE validation.

CISA Warns of Critical ScreenConnect Vulnerability Actively Exploited in Attacks
CISA added actively exploited ConnectWise ScreenConnect flaw CVE-2026-84869 to the KEV catalog, setting a September 14 patch deadline.
CISA added CVE-2026-84869, a critical improper privilege management and missing authorization flaw (CWE-269, CWE-862) in ConnectWise ScreenConnect, to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog on September 11, 2026, confirming active exploitation. The flaw lets attackers transfer files to a device and execute them during an active remote ScreenConnect session without authorization or host-user confirmation, enabling payload delivery, unauthorized tools, and persistence while blending into legitimate remote-management traffic. CISA set a September 14 remediation deadline under BOD 26-04 and flagged the vulnerability as requiring forensic triage. ConnectWise has published a security bulletin, and defenders are urged to review exposure, sessions, file-transfer records, and outbound connections.
