Cisco Warns of New Zero-Day ISE Auth Bypass (CVSS 10.0) Exploited in Active Attacksnew

Cisco warns CVE-2026-76460 (CVSS 10.0), an unauthenticated ISE auth bypass leading to root command execution, is under active exploitation and was added to CISA's KEV.

Cisco warned that CVE-2026-76460 (CVSS 10.0), an insufficient-authentication flaw in an Identity Services Engine (ISE) API endpoint, is being actively exploited by unauthenticated remote attackers and can yield root-privilege command execution on ISE and ISE-PIC regardless of configuration. Fixes shipped across ISE 3.1 through 3.5 patch branches; Cisco advised reviewing access.log for unexpected usernames (e.g., "dummyuser"), re-imaging affected nodes, and using iACLs, since no workarounds exist. CISA added the flaw to its KEV catalog on September 16, 2026, requiring FCEB agencies to patch by September 19. Cisco simultaneously issued 77 new CVEs, 41 affecting ISE and 28 affecting Secure Firewall products, days after confirming active exploitation of CVE-2026-76461 in Secure Email Gateway.

Root RCE Zero-Day in Cisco Secure Email Gateway Under Active Exploitation

Cisco warns CVE-2026-76461 (CVSS 9.8), an unauthenticated root RCE in Secure Email Gateway AsyncOS, is actively exploited in the wild.

Cisco confirmed that CVE-2026-76461, a CVSS 9.8 email-parsing flaw in Secure Email Gateway AsyncOS, is being exploited in the wild since September 2026, allowing unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands with root privileges via crafted emails containing malicious SQL statements. All physical and virtual SEG configurations are affected; Secure Email and Web Manager and Secure Web Appliance are not. CISA added the flaw to the KEV catalog with a September 17 federal remediation deadline, and Cisco released IoCs while noting root access lets attackers remove them.

Cisco patches Secure Email Gateway zero-day exploited in attacks

Cisco patches actively exploited Secure Email Gateway zero-day CVE-2026-76461 enabling unauthenticated root command execution; CISA adds it to KEV.

Cisco disclosed that a critical zero-day (CVE-2026-76461) in the email parsing logic of AsyncOS for Secure Email Gateway is being actively exploited, allowing unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL statements that lead to root-level command execution on virtual and physical appliances. CISA added the flaw to its KEV catalog and ordered federal agencies to patch within three days, by September 17. Cisco also patched four other critical SEG/SEWM vulnerabilities (CVE-2026-76440, CVE-2026-76441, CVE-2026-20353, CVE-2026-76443) with no evidence of exploitation, and shared IOCs including suspicious SQL statements in mail_logs.

Cisco Fixes Dozens of Flaws Across FMC, ISE and Nexus Dashboard

Cisco patches dozens of critical flaws in FMC, ISE and Nexus Dashboard, including ISE bugs and an authentication bypass already exploited in the wild.

Cisco released patches for dozens of critical-severity CVEs in Secure Firewall Management Center, Identity Services Engine and Nexus Dashboard. ISE updates cover 20 CVEs including 12 critical ones; three publicly disclosed flaws (CVE-2026-20282, CVE-2026-20283, CVE-2026-20284) enable SQL injection, data tampering and command execution but require administrative access. FMC patches fix 18 CVEs, eight critical, several shared with ASA and FTD, where CVE-2026-20079 and CVE-2026-20316 have been exploited since August. Cisco also warned of a critical-severity ISE authentication bypass exploited in the wild as a zero-day.

Hackers Exploit Critical Cisco Secure Email Gateway Vulnerability in the Wild to Run Malicious Code

Cisco warns attackers actively exploit zero-day CVE-2026-76461 in Secure Email Gateway, gaining unauthenticated root command execution via crafted emails.

Cisco PSIRT confirmed active in-the-wild exploitation of CVE-2026-76461 throughout September 2026, a zero-day in Secure Email Gateway AsyncOS that lets remote, unauthenticated attackers execute arbitrary commands with root privileges by sending maliciously crafted emails containing injected SQL statements. Physical appliances, virtual deployments, and Cisco Secure Email Cloud instances were affected; Cisco deployed server-side remediations for cloud tenants but on-premises admins must patch themselves. Fixes ship in AsyncOS 16.5.0-780 plus branches 16.0.4-3021 and 15.5.5-0141, and no workarounds exist.

Cisco Warns of Critical ISE 0-Day Vulnerability Exploited in Attacks

Cisco confirms zero-day CVE-2026-76460 (CVSS 10.0) in ISE is under active exploitation, granting unauthenticated root command execution; patches released.

Cisco's PSIRT issued an urgent advisory for CVE-2026-76460, an authentication bypass via insufficient controls on an API endpoint in Cisco ISE and ISE-PIC, confirmed to be actively exploited with a CVSS score of 10.0. Exploitation can yield root-level command execution, enabling persistence, credential theft, and lateral movement from the network policy platform. Fixed releases are ISE 3.1 Patch 12, 3.2 Patch 11, 3.3 Patch 12, 3.4 Patch 7, and 3.5 Patch 4; EOL version 3.0 requires migration, and iACLs offer only temporary mitigation. The flaw was discovered while resolving a TAC support case, and Cisco provides hunting guidance including access.log review and firewall log analysis.
