Patch Tuesday - September 2026
Microsoft's September 2026 Patch Tuesday fixes 999 CVEs, a record, with two zero-day privilege escalation flaws already exploited in the wild.
Microsoft published 974 own-product vulnerabilities plus 25 non-Microsoft CVEs, totaling 999 — the most CVEs Microsoft has ever released in a single day. Two flaws are exploited in the wild: CVE-2026-85880, an out-of-bounds write in Windows ALPC granting SYSTEM privileges, and CVE-2026-81963, an improper link resolution flaw in the Windows Update Stack also leading to SYSTEM. Chrome's V8 zero-day CVE-2026-85046 was patched in Edge on September 2, but Microsoft had not published a corresponding advisory, leaving uncertainty about other Chromium fixes in Edge. October 14 lifecycle changes end servicing for Windows 11 24H2 Home/Pro, Office 2021, and Exchange Server 2016/2019.

Malicious .git Configs Can Make Claude, Codex, Cursor, and Other AI Agents Run Attacker Code
Malicious .git core.fsmonitor configs let attacker code run in AI coding agents like Claude Code and Codex; four of eight flaws remain unpatched.
Manifold Security disclosed eight flaws across seven command-line AI coding agents where a repository's Git core.fsmonitor configuration causes agent-spawned commands to execute attacker code outside the sandbox and without approval prompts. Fixes shipped for goose (CVE-2026-72718, CVSS 4.0 score 7.0), Claude Code on one path, and Cursor, while Hermes Agent, Qwen Code, Grok Build, and a second Claude Code path were still unpatched as of September 1. OpenAI issued three CVEs for the same class in Codex, including CVE-2026-19592, and prior related bugs include CVE-2021-43891 in Visual Studio Code and CVE-2022-24346 in JetBrains IDEs. Exploitation requires the repository to arrive with its .git directory intact, such as via archives, shared drives, or USB sticks rather than an ordinary clone.
