SAP warns of maximum severity 'OVERPASS' kernel vulnerability

SAP's September 2026 patches fix maximum-severity kernel flaw CVE-2026-44756 (OVERPASS), letting unauthenticated attackers execute commands on 10,000+ internet-facing SAP systems.

SAP's September 2026 Patch Tuesday addresses 20 vulnerabilities, headlined by CVE-2026-44756, a buffer overflow in the Extended Passport Protocol (EPP) library of the SAP Kernel dubbed OVERPASS by Onapsis researchers. Unauthenticated attackers can gain administrative command execution via SAP Internet Communication Manager; Onapsis counted more than 10,000 internet-facing SAP systems. SAP also fixed CVE-2026-58240 (S4GET), a critical missing-authentication flaw in the NetWeaver Message Server enabling unauthenticated remote code execution as <sid>adm. Since November 2021, CISA has added 14 SAP flaws to its actively exploited list, three abused by ransomware gangs.

2026-011: Critical Vulnerabilities in SAP Kernel and NetWeaver Message Server

SAP patched two critical flaws, OVERPASS (CVE-2026-44756, CVSS 10.0) and S4GET (CVE-2026-58240), allowing unauthenticated attackers to execute OS commands on SAP hosts.

On SAP's September 2026 Security Patch Day, SAP released Security Notes 3747649 and 3759472 fixing two critical unauthenticated remote vulnerabilities found by Onapsis. CVE-2026-44756 ('OVERPASS', CVSS 10.0) is a memory corruption flaw in Extended Passport (EPP) deserialisation in the SAP Kernel; CVE-2026-58240 ('S4GET', CVSS 9.8) is a missing authentication check in the NetWeaver Message Server that lets attackers register as trusted cluster nodes. Successful exploitation of either can yield OS command execution as the SAP service account, leading to full system and business data compromise, and CERT-EU urges immediate patching. No in-the-wild exploitation is reported.

Onapsis warns over 10,000 internet-facing SAP systems may be exposed to maximum-severity unauthenticated RCE flaw CVE-2026-44756 in SAP Extended Passport.

Onapsis Research Labs discovered CVE-2026-44756, a memory corruption flaw in SAP Extended Passport (EPP) processing caused by missing boundary validation during deserialization. The bug is reachable from the SAP GUI and RFC layers, is remotely exploitable without authentication by default, and could let attackers run arbitrary OS commands with SAP administrative privileges. No active exploitation was observed at publication. Onapsis also flagged critical S4GET bug CVE-2026-58240 (CVSS 9.8) in the S/4HANA Message Server, credential disclosure CVE-2026-76969 in SAP CAP, and improper access control CVE-2026-66768 in NetWeaver.

Risky Bulletin: Ukraine's top prosecutor resigns amid scam call center scandal

Ukraine's top prosecutor Ruslan Kravchenko resigned after NABU arrested a deputy for taking bribes protecting scam call centers running fake investment platforms.

Ukraine's anti-corruption bureau NABU arrested Serhiy Kropyva, Deputy Head of International Cooperation at the Prosecutor General's Office, alleging officials took monthly protection fees from a network of 100-500 scam call centers luring victims into fake investment platforms, with bribes reportedly growing from $700,000 to $3.5 million per month. Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko resigned on Monday, calling it a political decision, while Kropyva was fired with bail set at 120 million hryvnias ($2.7 million) and over 100 call centers shut down in the past month. The newsletter also briefly covers a cyberattack crippling more than 80 Luxembourg medical practices via payment vendor BMS Engineering, ShinyHunters' claimed theft of 200,000 Florida DMV driver records, a cyberattack on the American Meteor Society, and school closures in Springfield, Massachusetts.
