Cisco confirms CVE-2026-20079 Secure FMC flaw exploited in attacks

Cisco confirmed active exploitation of CVE-2026-20079, a CVSS 10.0 authentication bypass enabling unauthenticated root command execution in Secure FMC; CISA added it to KEV.

Cisco confirmed in August 2026 that CVE-2026-20079 (CVSS 10.0), an unauthenticated authentication bypass in Secure Firewall Management Center, is being actively exploited, allowing remote attackers to execute scripts and commands as root via crafted HTTP requests to the web interface. CISA added the flaw to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, ordering federal civilian agencies to patch by September 12, 2026. Shared IOCs, identical hot fixes, and a July 23 log entry suggest CVE-2026-20079 was used alongside the separately exploited static-credential flaw CVE-2026-20316 in the same attacks. Cisco released patches and cloud fixes, warns hot fixes do not remediate already-compromised devices, and says there are no workarounds.

2026-002: Multiple Vulnerabilities in Cisco Products

Cisco fixed SD-WAN Controller auth bypass CVE-2026-20127 (CVSS 10) exploited in the wild since 2023, plus several critical and high flaws in SD-WAN Manager.

On 25 February 2026 Cisco released advisories for multiple flaws in Catalyst SD-WAN Controller and SD-WAN Manager, potentially granting administrative access to attackers. CVE-2026-20127 (CVSS 10.0) is an authentication bypass in the Controller's peering authentication mechanism, exploited in the wild since 2023, allowing unauthenticated admin access via NETCONF, rogue device injection, and persistent access. SD-WAN Manager flaws include CVE-2026-20129 (9.8, unauthenticated API auth bypass to netadmin), CVE-2026-20126 (7.8, local privesc to root), CVE-2026-20133 (7.5, info disclosure), CVE-2026-20122 (7.1, arbitrary file overwrite), and CVE-2026-20128 (5.5, DCA info disclosure). CERT-EU recommends patching, capturing forensic evidence, IOC hunting, and restricting management-plane internet exposure.

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.
