Ivanti EPMM, Neurons and Sentry Vulnerabilities Enable Privilege Escalation and RCE Attacks
Ivanti patched ten CVEs across EPMM, Neurons for ITSM and Sentry, including critical unauthenticated deserialization RCE; no active exploitation reported.
On September 8, 2026, Ivanti disclosed advisories covering ten CVEs in Endpoint Manager Mobile (EPMM), Neurons for ITSM, and Sentry. The most severe are two unauthenticated deserialization RCE flaws in Neurons for ITSM, CVE-2026-12744 and CVE-2026-12745 (CVSS 9.8), plus three missing-authorization RCE bugs rated 9.9 and three authenticated deserialization RCE flaws. EPMM has CVE-2026-18851 (CVSS 8.8), an authenticated privilege escalation flaw, and Sentry has CVE-2026-83527 (CVSS 8.1), an authentication bypass. Ivanti reports no evidence of active exploitation; cloud/SaaS ITSM was patched on August 9, 2026, while on-premises 2025.2 through 2026.1 require September 2026 patches.

CVE-2026-34908: UniFi OS Auth Bypass Vulnerability
Ubiquiti disclosed CVE-2026-34908, a CVSS 10.0 authentication bypass in UniFi OS letting network-adjacent attackers alter device configuration without credentials.
CVE-2026-34908 is an improper access control flaw (CWE-284) in Ubiquiti UniFi OS devices, disclosed in UI Security Advisory Bulletin 064, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 10.0. An unauthenticated network-adjacent attacker can bypass access controls and modify system configuration, with scope-changed impact on downstream network services such as routing, VPN, and connected access points. Fixed firmware is available, and workarounds include restricting management ports to trusted subnets, isolating management interfaces on a dedicated VLAN, and disabling remote access features. No public proof-of-concept code was observed at the time of publication.

VU#889462: Casdoor authentication server is vulnerable to authorization bypass
Casdoor IAM versions 3.115.0 and earlier allow organization admins to bypass tenant isolation through inconsistent authorization checks, tracked as CVE-2026-15630.
CERT/CC published VU#889462 describing an authorization bypass in Casdoor, an open-source access management platform, affecting versions 3.115.0 and earlier. The flaw (CVE-2026-15630) stems from controllers ignoring the ?id= query parameter used for authorization decisions and acting on JSON body fields instead, letting a single-organization administrator perform unauthorized administrative actions against arbitrary organizations in multi-tenant deployments. Impact can escalate to complete tenant-isolation compromise and potential compromise of the entire Casdoor instance, including SSO/SAML disruption. No vendor patch is available because researchers could not reach Casdoor; mitigations include least privilege, MFA for admin accounts, and alerting on cross-organization administrative activity.

FortiPAM Chrome Extension Vulnerability Lets Malicious Sites Control Browser Proxy and Record Tabs
Fortinet patched CVE-2026-84388 (CVSS 9.1) in its FortiPAM Chrome extension, letting malicious websites alter proxy settings, open tabs and record sessions.
The Fortinet FortiPAM Chrome extension flaw (CVE-2026-84388, CVSS 9.1) lets attacker-controlled domains be trusted as FortiPAM servers because a webRequest listener adds requested hostnames without verifying the initiator. A second issue exposes the extension's message interface to all URLs and accepts non-JWT tokens without validation, enabling unauthenticated session launches, proxy manipulation, tab control and recording; the consent dialog can also be bypassed via shadow-root clicks. Fortinet issued advisory FG-IR-26-168 after a July 17 report and released a fix on August 1, 2026, with no confirmed exploitation in the wild.

Apple Rolls Out Massive Security Update Fixing 273 Vulnerabilities Across Its Devices
Apple's coordinated rollout patches 273 unique vulnerabilities across iOS 27, macOS Golden Gate 27, watchOS and Safari, including remote code execution flaws.
Apple shipped one of its largest coordinated security updates on September 14, 2026, fixing 273 unique CVEs across iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS Golden Gate 27, watchOS 27, tvOS 27, visionOS 27, Safari 27 and Xcode 27. Highlights include CVE-2026-65414, a Bluetooth out-of-bounds write enabling remote code execution, and CVE-2026-84607, an AVEVideoEncoder race condition granting kernel privileges to sandboxed apps. macOS Golden Gate 27 covers the broadest set with 210 CVEs, and Apple states none of the flaws were exploited in the wild.

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.

ASUS Control Center Critical Flaw Allows Unauthenticated Attackers to Gain Root Access
ASUS patched CVE-2026-19397 (CVSS 7.7) in Control Center Express Agent, letting unauthenticated nearby attackers with an active session take over the host.
ASUS released version 1.7.24 of Control Center Express Agent to fix CVE-2026-19397, a CWE-306 missing-authentication flaw scored 7.7 on CVSS v4. Exploitation requires an active login session on the target and nearby network access, and agent compromise could lead to complete device takeover where the agent runs with elevated privileges. ASUS also issued a same-day advisory for Armory Crate covering ten additional CVEs.

Critical WSO2 Vulnerability Allow Hackers to Gain Full Admin Access
WSO2 discloses CVE-2026-5430 (CVSS 10.0), an unauthenticated JWT authentication bypass allowing admin account takeover across its API management products.
WSO2 disclosed CVE-2026-5430, a critical authentication bypass (CVSS 10.0; 9.8 for single-tenant deployments) in advisory WSO2-2026-5328. The flaw stems from insecure JWT processing: tokens signed with unsupported algorithms bypass authentication checks, potentially granting unauthenticated attackers administrative access. Affected products include WSO2 API Control Plane 4.5.0-4.6.0, API Manager 4.1.0-4.6.0, Traffic Manager 4.5.0-4.6.0, and Universal Gateway 4.5.0-4.6.0. Fixes are available via update levels such as API Manager 4.6.0 update 21 or by migrating to unaffected releases.

Windows 11’s strongest security defenses can be bypassed without a screwdriver
Researchers found a script-only attack, 'Download More RAM', that rewrites DIMM configuration chips to bypass Windows 11 VBS and HVCI security boundaries.
Researchers at the University of Birmingham and Durham University showed that overwriting configuration data on unprotected DDR4/DDR5 module chips creates memory aliases that let attackers with existing privileged access defeat Virtualisation-based Security and HVCI, re-enable blocklisted drivers, kill EDR, and bypass group policy. Microsoft assigned CVE-2026-23670 and shipped mitigations in its April 2026 updates; systems with Secure Boot enabled are protected. Affected unprotected product lines are estimated at more than half of the high-performance consumer memory market and over 70% of the gaming segment.
