Cisco warns customers of actively exploited zero-day in email gateways

Actively exploited Cisco Secure Email Gateway zero-day CVE-2026-76461 allows unauthenticated root command execution; CISA added it to KEV.

Cisco disclosed CVE-2026-76461, a zero-day in AsyncOS for Cisco Secure Email Gateway that was exploited before disclosure and lets unauthenticated remote attackers execute commands with root privileges on cloud and on-premises instances. CISA promptly added the flaw to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, and Cisco has directly contacted cloud customers with indicators of compromise while deploying mitigations. Rapid7 and VulnCheck warn compromised gateways could enable silent email monitoring and internal pivoting from on-premises deployments.

GitLab Vulnerability Exploited One Day After Disclosure

WatchTowr observed in-the-wild exploitation of critical GitLab path traversal CVE-2026-85706 one day after disclosure, letting unauthenticated attackers read arbitrary files.

WatchTowr detected the first in-the-wild probes for CVE-2026-85706 (CVSS 10.0), an unauthenticated path traversal in GitLab CE/EE that allows arbitrary file reads via a single HTTP request, and warns mass exploitation is likely. Affected versions include 18.7 before 19.1.8, 19.2 before 19.2.6, and 19.3 before 19.3.2. The fresh patches also fix 17 other vulnerabilities, including CVE-2026-87719 (CVSS 9.9), an insecure deserialization flaw in the GraphQL subscription serializer exposing Advanced Search credentials, plus six high-severity bugs enabling RCE, CI/CD variable access, XSS, and denial of service.

Hackers Drain $320 Million From Liquid Network, Then Return Most of It

Hackers exploited an Elements bug to drain about 4,000 BTC (~$320M) from Liquid Network's federation wallet, then returned 3,400 BTC after Blockstream patched.

An attacker drained roughly 4,000 of 4,200 BTC (~$320M) from Bitcoin's Liquid Network federation wallet on September 6 by exploiting a bug in Elements, the open-source code powering the sidechain, which allowed unbacked L-BTC tokens that were redeemed for real Bitcoin through SideSwap's authorized peg-out mechanism. The self-described white-hat attackers negotiated publicly via OP_RETURN on-chain messages, demanding the bridge nodes be patched before returning 3,400 BTC (~$262.6M) and keeping about 598 BTC (~$47M). Blockstream confirmed the affected bridge nodes were patched; the network remains paused while federation members complete security work, and experts debate whether the act legally constitutes extortion.
