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.

Hackers Actively Exploiting Gitea n-day RCE Vulnerability in the Wild to Hijack Instances

Chinese-speaking Red Heron actors mass-exploit Gitea n-day RCE CVE-2026-60004 to steal source code, credentials, and pivot into victim networks.

Acronis Threat Research Unit reports active in-the-wild exploitation of Gitea RCE CVE-2026-60004 (CVSS 9.8, versions 1.17-1.27.0, fixed in 1.27.1) by a Chinese-speaking actor dubbed Red Heron. The actor scanned 1,386 Gitea servers across seven countries, held a separate list of 477 Taiwan-based targets, and confirmed victims in Canada, Argentina, Taiwan, the US, and Sri Lanka. Intrusions deployed the JITTERLY Linux implant with the SIXZUT LD_PRELOAD rootkit, stole password hashes and SSH keys, and in one case gained root admin access to a three-node Proxmox cluster.
