Critical ScreenConnect flaw now actively exploited in attacks

CISA confirms active exploitation of critical ConnectWise ScreenConnect flaw CVE-2026-84869, ordering federal agencies to mitigate within three days.

ConnectWise's ScreenConnect flaw CVE-2026-84869, an improper privilege management and missing authorization bug, lets attackers with basic privileges transfer or execute files through active remote sessions in low-complexity attacks without user interaction. It is patched in ScreenConnect 26.6.5; CISA added it to the KEV catalog and ordered US federal agencies to secure systems within three days. Shadowserver tracks over 1,000 unpatched exposed instances, mostly in North America (758) and Europe (180). This is the fourth actively exploited ScreenConnect flaw since 2024; earlier issues were abused by Kimsuky and ransomware gangs.
