CVE-2026-86462: Apache Airflow FAB provider: FAB Admin password PATCH does not invalidate database-backed sessions

Apache Airflow FAB provider 3.2.0-3.8.x password changes do not invalidate database-backed sessions, letting stolen session cookies survive a password reset.

CVE-2026-86462 affects apache-airflow-providers-fab versions 3.2.0 before 3.9.0. Changing a user's password via the Admin user-edit PATCH endpoint does not invalidate that user's existing database-backed sessions. An attacker who already holds a copy of the victim's session cookie retains full access as that user after the password change. Severity is rated moderate.

Remote Desktop Services Failures on Windows Servers Following September Update

September 2026 Patch Tuesday updates cause Windows Server 2019/2022/2025 RDS sessions to freeze, forcing administrators to roll back.

Cumulative updates KB5122876 (Windows Server 2019), KB5122882 (2022), and KB5122871 (2025) trigger Remote Desktop Services freezes hours after boot, with RDP connections hanging at 'Connecting…' and Event ID 20498 logged. Administrators trace the fault to an apparent deadlock in RDPSERVERBASE!WDLIB_Close during session teardown; only hard resets restore service and the issue recurs. The same September release patched roughly 973 vulnerabilities, including two actively exploited zero-days (CVE-2026-81963, CVE-2026-85880, both in CISA's KEV) and a critical RDS RCE, CVE-2026-69525 (CVSS 9.8). Workarounds include DISM-based removal of the update or an unofficial FeatureManagement registry key disabling the suspected audio-redirection code path; Microsoft has not yet confirmed the bug.

CVE-2026-76187: Apache Airflow Keycloak provider: Any realm client's credentials mint an Airflow session JWT

Apache Airflow Keycloak provider before 0.10.0 lets any confidential client's credentials in the realm mint an Airflow session JWT.

CVE-2026-76187 affects apache-airflow-providers-keycloak before 0.10.0. The unauthenticated token endpoint accepts a client-credentials grant for any confidential client registered in the Keycloak realm, not only the client configured for Airflow. No allowlist restricts which client ids may authenticate, so credentials of an unrelated application can obtain an Airflow session JWT. Severity is rated moderate.

AWS Systems Manager Agent Vulnerability Allows Attackers to Bypass Port-Forwarding Restrictions

Critical SSRF flaw in AWS SSM Agent (CVE-2026-89049) lets authenticated users bypass link-local denylists and reach EC2 Instance Metadata Service for IAM credentials.

CVE-2026-89049 (Critical, CVSS v3.1 AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H) affects Amazon SSM Agent versions earlier than 3.3.4851.0, with the fix shipping in 3.3.4851.0. The remote-host port-forwarding feature's denylist for link-local addresses can be bypassed because equivalent address representations are not validated, enabling SSRF to restricted endpoints such as the EC2 Instance Metadata Service at 169.254.169.254. An attacker with authenticated AWS access and ssm:StartSession permission could retrieve instance profile IAM credentials and pivot to S3, Secrets Manager, Lambda, or other cloud resources depending on role permissions.

ConnectWise patches critical ScreenConnect authentication failure after five days

ConnectWise patched ScreenConnect flaw CVE-2026-84869 five days after warning files could be transferred and executed via active sessions without authorization.

ConnectWise released ScreenConnect client version 26.6.5 and later to fix CVE-2026-84869, an authentication failure in ConnectWise Remote Access allowing unauthorized file transfer and execution through active remote sessions. The company warned customers on September 3 and advised admins to remove the TransferFiles permission from users with open sessions as an interim mitigation. The advisory does not state that exploitation has been observed.

TP-Link Cameras 0-Day Vulnerabilities Allow Attackers to Spy on Users

Two zero-day flaws in TP-Link Tapo C200 cameras allowed authentication bypass and denial-of-service; fixed in firmware V5_1.4.6.

OPSWAT researchers Khoi Tran and Thai Do found CVE-2026-15315, an authentication bypass in the Tapo C200's local HTTPS interface that lets network-adjacent attackers replay an authentication value to gain administrator access, and CVE-2026-15316, an unauthenticated denial-of-service in the Wi-Fi onboarding process that crashes the camera's HTTPS service. TP-Link was notified on April 16, 2026, confirmed the flaws on July 10, and released patches on August 18, 2026 in firmware V5_1.4.6. Exploitation requires local network access but no valid account, existing session, or user interaction, exposing live feeds and stored recordings to surveillance risk.

Multiple VLC Media Player Vulnerabilities Allow Attackers to Corrupt or Read Heap Memory

Two VLC 3.0 flaws, CVE-2026-56711 (heap corruption, CVSS 8.6) and CVE-2026-73324 (memory leak), let crafted PNGs or RTSP playlists corrupt memory or leak data.

Hap Security researcher Fabian Wahle disclosed two VLC Media Player flaws on September 9, 2026, affecting versions 3.0.0 through 3.0.23. CVE-2026-56711 (CVSS 8.6) is an integer overflow and out-of-bounds write in the AllocatePicture function, exploitable via a crafted PNG with oversized IHDR dimensions, potentially causing crashes or code execution. CVE-2026-73324 (CVSS 6.9) lets a malicious RTSP server read adjacent heap memory through an unterminated 4096-byte response line, triggerable via a realrtsp playlist URL. No patched release is confirmed yet; users should avoid untrusted media files, playlists, and RTSP streams.

Okta Patches Auth0 and Access Gateway Vulnerabilities Let Attackers Enable XSS, Authentication Bypass and SQL Injection

Okta patches three high-severity flaws in Auth0 AD/LDAP Connector and Access Gateway: stored XSS, auth bypass, SQL injection.

Okta disclosed on September 8, 2026 three vulnerabilities: CVE-2026-85982, a CVSS 9.0 stored XSS in Auth0 AD/LDAP Connector before 8.0.0; CVE-2026-78626, a CVSS 8.1 Protected Rule authorization bypass in Access Gateway before 2026.9.1; and CVE-2026-78623, a CVSS 7.7 SQL injection in Access Gateway advanced-mode datastores. Exploitation requires authenticated access and specific configurations. Fixes require upgrading the connector to 8.0.0+ and Access Gateway to 2026.9.1+.

Nearly 1 in 10 Exposed LiteLLM Gateways Accepted the Example "sk-1234" Admin Key

Wiz found 294 of 3,074 internet-facing LiteLLM gateways accepted the documented default admin key sk-1234, exposing provider API keys and cloud IAM credentials.

Wiz Research's February Shodan scan found 3,074 LiteLLM gateways, 294 of which accepted the setup guide's sk-1234 admin key; 191 had no master key set and would accept any credential. The master key doubles as the authentication switch, and before 1.82.0-stable a gateway started without one granted every request full admin rights, exposing stored provider API keys, prompts, and MCP-connected tools. A documented pass-through endpoint lacks checks against private and cloud metadata addresses, letting an admin-key holder retrieve cloud IAM credentials, though no real-world abuse is reported. Related LiteLLM flaws include CVE-2026-59821 (disputed guardrail code execution), CVE-2026-59822 (CVSS 8.8, added to CISA KEV on September 2 and observed against Wiz honeypots), and CVE-2026-42271, used to install a cryptominer.

Skullcandy Dime 3 Bluetooth Flaw Lets Nearby Attackers Hijack Audio and Spy Through Microphone

Skullcandy Dime 3 earbuds on firmware 1.0.0.28 accept unauthenticated Bluetooth pairing via Airoha SDK flaw CVE-2025-20701, enabling audio hijack and microphone capture.

CERT/CC vulnerability note VU#859658 describes insecure Bluetooth Classic (BR/EDR) pairing on Skullcandy Dime 3 (model S2DCW) firmware 1.0.0.28, linked to CVE-2025-20701 in the Airoha Bluetooth audio SDK. The NoInputNoOutput I/O capability lets unknown nearby devices pair without pairing mode, PIN, passkey or user interaction, then bond and automatically reconnect. An attacker can hijack the A2DP audio session and access Hands-Free or Headset profiles to capture live microphone audio. Firmware 1.0.0.30 reportedly fixes the flaw, but the earbuds cannot be updated through the Skullcandy app, leaving current users without a consumer-accessible patch path.
