Hackers target exposed Vite dev servers to steal AWS, Azure secrets

Mass scanning campaign exploits CVE-2026-39364 in exposed Vite dev servers to steal AWS, Azure, and Terraform credentials.

F5 honeypots detected over 800 attacks and roughly 32,000 events in a month against internet-exposed Vite development servers, abusing CVE-2026-39364 (file access control bypass in Vite 7.1.0-7.3.2 and 8.x before 8.0.5) via parameters like ?raw and ?import&raw. Attackers used extensive wordlists to harvest .env files, AWS/Azure credentials, Terraform state, and /proc/self/environ, with double-encoded traversal to bypass WAFs. The same IPs also leveraged older Vite flaws CVE-2025-30208, actively-exploited CVE-2025-31125, and CVE-2024-45811, primarily from US, Belgium, and Netherlands using Google Cloud ranges.

Adobe Patches Magento Zero-Day Exploited to Deploy Rust Backdoor and PHP Web Shell

Adobe patches actively exploited Magento zero-day CVE-2026-75650 (CVSS 10.0), abused since Sept 4 to deploy a Rust backdoor and PHP web shells.

Adobe released an emergency hotfix (VULN-39341) for CVE-2026-75650 (CVSS 10.0), dubbed StyleSmuggler by Sansec, which abuses Magento's template system via PHP code injection to trigger unauthenticated remote code execution in Adobe Commerce and Magento Open Source. Exploitation began September 4, 2026, with attackers deploying a Rust-based Linux backdoor and a PHP dropper that writes a web shell; one managed server was compromised 50 minutes after the first report. Previdian honeypots recorded 12 exploitation attempts from two unique IPs in China and Romania since September 7, all unsuccessful. Adobe urges merchants to apply the patch and rotate encryption keys.

Apple macOS Screen Sharing Flaw Exploited on Internet

Actively exploited CVE-2026-65400 in macOS Screen Sharing grants pre-auth root access; attackers deploy Monero miners on exposed systems.

NCSC-NL reported active exploitation of CVE-2026-65400 (CVSS 9.8), an authentication flaw in macOS Screen Sharing patched on August 6, 2026, with root access gained and a Monero miner planted on internet-exposed systems using port 5900. Related Screen Sharing bugs CVE-2026-43779, CVE-2026-43777, and CVE-2026-43760 were fixed in macOS Tahoe 26.6, and researcher @osxreverser noted a pre-auth flaw fixed alongside them affecting roughly 40,000 exposed hosts. Calif said an AI agent produced working exploits for both pre-auth bugs in four hours, underscoring the shrinking gap between patch release and weaponization.

Keys to the Kingdom: Erlang/OTP SSH Vulnerability Analysis and Exploits Observed in the Wild

Attackers actively exploit CVE-2025-32433, a CVSS 10.0 unauthenticated RCE in Erlang/OTP SSH, heavily targeting OT and critical infrastructure networks.

CVE-2025-32433 enables unauthenticated RCE in Erlang/OTP's SSH daemon via SSH connection protocol messages (codes >= 80) processed before authentication, affecting versions before OTP-27.3.3, OTP-26.2.5.11 and OTP-25.3.2.20. Unit 42 recorded a spike in exploitation between May 1-9, 2025, with 70% of detections on firewalls protecting OT networks, disproportionately affecting healthcare, agriculture, media and high technology. Observed payloads bind TCP-connected shells or launch Bash reverse shells to hosts like 146.103.40.203:6667, with randomized DNS lookups under dns.outbound.watchtowr.com indicating OAST-driven blind RCE validation.

Attackers exploit patched macOS Screen Sharing flaw to deploy cryptominer

Attackers actively exploit patched macOS Screen Sharing bug CVE-2026-65400 on systems with port 5900 exposed, gaining root to install a Monero cryptominer.

The Netherlands' National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) reports active exploitation of CVE-2026-65400, an authentication flaw in macOS Screen Sharing that lets attackers authenticate without valid login credentials. Apple patched the issue in macOS Sequoia 15.7.9, Sonoma 14.8.9 and Tahoe 26.6.1, and the NCSC escalated its advisory on August 12 after proof-of-concept code went public and reports arrived of attacks on internet-exposed systems. In every reported case attackers obtained root access and installed a Monero crypto miner; users who cannot patch immediately are advised to disable Screen Sharing.

Attackers Exploit SharePoint Authentication Bypass After Public PoC Release

Attackers exploit SharePoint authentication bypass CVE-2026-55040 (CVSS 9.1) after Rapid7's PoC release, with 12 exploitation attempts recorded since July 19, 2026.

Microsoft patched CVE-2026-55040 in its July 2026 Patch Tuesday; the 9.1-severity flaw chains four weaknesses in SharePoint's JWT token validation pipeline, letting unauthenticated attackers forge valid JWTs and impersonate any SharePoint site user or administrator. Threat actors began exploiting the bug after Rapid7 released a Python PoC that forges tokens and enumerates domain users by SID. KEVIntel telemetry shows 12 exploitation attempts since July 19, 2026, eight of them on August 12-13 following the PoC release, originating from eight IPs across Hong Kong, Japan, the Netherlands, Taiwan, and the U.S. This is the fifth SharePoint vulnerability exploited this year, alongside CVE-2026-45659, CVE-2026-56164, CVE-2026-58644, and CVE-2026-50522.

SharePoint CVE-2026-55040 Comes Under Attack Following Public Exploit

Attackers are actively exploiting critical SharePoint authentication bypass CVE-2026-55040 (CVSS 9.1) days after Rapid7 released a public PoC.

CVE-2026-55040 is a critical authentication bypass (CVSS 9.1) in SharePoint Server Subscription Edition that lets unauthenticated attackers forge JWT tokens and impersonate any user, including administrators. Microsoft patched it in July 2026 Patch Tuesday, but Rapid7 published a technical write-up and Python PoC on GitHub on August 12, and Defused quickly observed attackers running the PoC against SharePoint honeypots. KEVIntel recorded 12 exploitation attempts since July 19, with eight occurring on August 12-13 from IP addresses in Hong Kong, Japan, the Netherlands, Taiwan and the U.S. Admin-level SharePoint access exposes documents and data modification and can serve as a foothold into broader Microsoft 365 infrastructure; unpatched instances should apply the July update immediately.
