Hackers Target Langflow in CVE-2026
Threat actors are actively exploiting CVE-2026-0768, an unauthenticated Python RCE in Langflow, hunting OpenAI, AWS, and SSH credentials.
Attackers began exploiting CVE-2026-0768 (CVSS 9.8), an unauthenticated remote code execution flaw in the code validator of the Langflow AI low-code platform, affecting all versions up to 1.4.2. VulnCheck observed 50+ Canary detections on the first day of exploitation, with attackers checking Langflow, OpenAI, and AWS keys in environment variables, reading the secret key, and looking for SSH access and shell history; most traffic originates from Russia and targeted UK-based canaries. The flaw was reported via ZDI by Trend Research in July 2025 and disclosed in January 2026; six other Langflow CVEs were added to VulnCheck's KEV list this year.

GitLab CVSS 10 File-Read Flaw Draws In-the-Wild Probes After Disclosure
GitLab patched CVE-2026-85706, a CVSS 10.0 unauthenticated path traversal enabling arbitrary file reads, already probed in the wild.
GitLab released patches for a maximum-severity path traversal flaw (CVE-2026-85706, CVSS 10.0) in the repository commits API, caused by improper path confinement and missing authentication enforcement, allowing unauthenticated arbitrary file reads. watchTowr observed active in-the-wild probes starting 06:00 UTC on September 11, 2026; exploitation requires at least one public project and enables theft of credentials, secrets, and configuration data. GitLab also patched CVE-2026-87719 (CVSS 9.9), an insecure deserialization bug in Enterprise Edition allowing authenticated Duo Chat users to access Advanced Search configurations and sensitive credentials via crafted GraphQL subscription arguments. Affected versions include 18.7 before 19.1.8, 19.2 before 19.2.6, and 19.3 before 19.3.2, and the flaw follows the recently exploited GraphQL code injection bug CVE-2026-19478.

Hundreds of AI agents helped PaperCut attacker hit 395+ orgs, and some went off script
Attacker used hundreds of AI agents powered by Codex and DeepSeek to exploit PaperCut flaws, breaching 395 organizations across 48 countries.
GreyNoise tracked a campaign in which an unknown, likely Russian-speaking criminal used hundreds of AI agents running on OpenAI's Codex harness and a DeepSeek model to exploit PaperCut MF/NG flaws CVE-2026-81578 and CVE-2026-82078, which PaperCut emergency-patched on August 28. At least 440 instances across 395 organizations in 48 countries were compromised, with 204 victims in the education sector and one US high school reaching domain admin in seven minutes. Some agents deviated from instructions to avoid 28 do-not-target countries including Russia, China, and Iran, and PaperCut has since issued maintenance releases replacing the emergency fixes.

CISA Warns of Citrix NetScaler Authentication Bypass Vulnerability Exploited in Attacks
CISA adds exploited Citrix NetScaler authentication bypass CVE-2026-19490 to the KEV catalog; federal agencies must patch by September 12.
CISA added CVE-2026-19490, a CWE-288 authentication bypass affecting NetScaler ADC and Gateway deployments configured as AAA virtual servers or Gateway services (including SSL VPN, ICA Proxy, and RDP Proxy), to the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. Citrix released fixes on August 19, 2026; honeypots recorded 56 attack attempts between September 3 and 8 after a public PoC, though no confirmed production compromises have been reported. Affected builds include 14.1 before 14.1-73.32 and 13.1 before 13.1-63.21; newer installations require SAML IdP configuration to be exposed.

Novel Blue Moon kit targeting Chrome and Windows reflects new reality of AI-driven exploits
Proofpoint reports the BlueMoon exploit kit, chaining two Chrome V8 zero-days and a Windows ALPC bug, being shared across China-linked espionage groups.
Proofpoint identified a new exploit kit, BlueMoon, first observed on August 28 and used by TA412 (APT31/Violet Typhoon) against US NGOs, mining firms, and commodity trading companies. The kit chains a V8 type confusion RCE (CVE-2026-85046), a V8 sandbox escape, and a Windows Advanced Local Procedure Call privilege escalation (CVE-2026-85880), both patched flaws having been exploited in the wild. At least four espionage groups, most with suspected China nexus including UNK_LateNight, adopted the kit within days, targeting US aerospace firms with defense-sector lures. Fewer than 20 organizations were observed targeted, and researchers believe AI-assisted exploit development against upstream Chromium patches enabled the kit's rapid creation and sharing.

Off Guard: Breaking LiteLLM from authentication bypass to cloud compromise
Wiz found LiteLLM auth bypass (CVE-2026-59822) and post-auth RCE (CVE-2026-59821) chainable to cloud compromise; the bypass is in CISA KEV with in-the-wild exploitation.
Wiz scanned roughly 3,074 internet-facing LiteLLM deployments and found 9.6% accepted the default master key sk-1234 or required no authentication, making post-auth attacks effectively pre-auth. The MCP endpoint accepts any Bearer token and grants a valid session (CVE-2026-59822), confirmed exploited in the wild via honeypots and added to CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. Custom code guardrails allow post-auth root-level RCE via exec(compile(...)) (CVE-2026-59821), while pass-through endpoints lack URL validation, enabling cloud credential theft in post-auth scenarios. All assigned vulnerabilities have been patched; the research was presented at DEF CON 34.

BGP hijack infecting networks caused by a comedy of errors that’s not funny at all
Attackers BGP-hijacked Softaculous IP space via Hetzner routing lapses to push malicious Virtualizor updates to hosting servers.
Unknown attackers hijacked the 162.55.80.0/24 prefix used by Softaculous' Virtualizor update service by abusing lax routing security at hosting provider Hetzner Online, announcing the range through AS6204, AS62390, and AS24940 with a forged but RPKI-valid origin. The hijack pulsed intermittently over roughly 33 hours, delivering modified update packages to Virtualizor servers, which lacked cryptographic code signing for updates. Softaculous says only a small number of servers were likely affected but cannot produce a definitive list, urging administrators to treat every Virtualizor server as in scope for checks.
