Shared Hosting at Risk: LiteSpeed Enterprise Bug Can Grant Root from a Single Tenant

Critical LiteSpeed Web Server Enterprise flaw (pre-6.3.7) lets a low-privilege shared-hosting tenant escape CageFS isolation and gain root; forced update urged.

cPanel warned that a critical privilege-escalation vulnerability in LiteSpeed Web Server Enterprise (fixed in 6.3.7) lets a malicious low-privilege website user bypass account isolation controls including CloudLinux CageFS and gain root on shared-hosting servers, enabling cross-tenant compromise. No CVE, severity rating, or technical details have been published, and it is unclear whether the flaw is being exploited. This is the third root-level LiteSpeed escape on cPanel servers since May, following CVE-2026-48172 and CVE-2026-54420, which were actively exploited and added to CISA's KEV catalog.

Dutch NCSC Warns: Critical Check Point VPN Flaws Put Networks at Risk

Dutch NCSC warns two CVSS 9.8 Check Point VPN flaws enable unauthenticated RCE; patch and restrict access before exploitation begins.

The Dutch NCSC warns that CVE-2026-85102, a security-check bypass in the VPN negotiation process, and CVE-2026-85103, a heap overflow in the certificate ASN.1 decoder, both carry a CVSS score of 9.8 and allow unauthenticated remote code execution on Check Point Security Gateways and Security Management Servers. Check Point fixed the flaws on September 9 via advisories sk1000117 and sk1000118, covering R81.20, R82, R82.10, R81.10.x, R82.00.x plus end-of-support versions R80 through R81.10; R82.20 is unaffected. No public proof-of-concept exists, but the NCSC rates exploitation likelihood as high and recommends patching immediately via LivePatch Take 24 or Jumbo Hotfix and restricting VPN access to trusted IPs.

Microsoft’s Biggest Patch Tuesday: 974 CVEs, 2 Zero-Days and 20 Wormable Bugs

Microsoft's record September 2026 Patch Tuesday fixes 974 CVEs, including two exploited Windows privilege-escalation zero-days and 20 wormable bugs.

Microsoft's September 2026 Patch Tuesday fixes a record 974 CVEs, including two actively exploited zero-days: CVE-2026-85880, an ALPC heap buffer overflow, and CVE-2026-81963 in the Windows Update Stack, both CVSS 7.8 local privilege escalations. It also addresses an unauthenticated Exchange RCE (CVE-2026-55007) triggered by Visio attachment content indexing under memory pressure, an RDP use-after-free (CVE-2026-69525, CVSS 9.8), and 20 wormable flaws in DNS, DHCP, SMB, Active Directory, and other components. ZDI attributed the rising volume partly to AI-assisted vulnerability discovery, noting no corresponding spike in active exploits yet.
