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.

macOS Screen Sharing Flaw Exploited to Deploy Monero Miners
Dutch NCSC confirms active exploitation of critical macOS Screen Sharing flaw CVE-2026-65400, granting root access and installing Monero miners.
CVE-2026-65400 (CVSS 9.8) is an authentication state-management flaw in macOS's built-in Screen Sharing that lets network attackers authenticate without valid credentials. The Dutch NCSC confirmed active exploitation against systems with port 5900 exposed to the internet; in every documented case attackers obtained root access and installed a Monero cryptocurrency miner. Apple patched the bug in macOS Tahoe 26.6.1, Sequoia 15.7.9, and Sonoma 14.8.9, crediting Alfredo Pesoli of Bynario. A related researcher scan found roughly 40,000 exposed Screen Sharing hosts, and security firm Calif built working exploits for related flaws in about four hours using an AI coding agent.
