NCSC Warns of Critical Check Point VPN Flaws as Large-Scale Exploitation Is Expected
Dutch NCSC warns of two critical CVSS 9.8 Check Point VPN flaws enabling unauthenticated remote code execution, urging immediate patching before mass exploitation.
The Dutch NCSC warned that CVE-2026-85102 and CVE-2026-85103, both rated 9.8 CVSS, allow unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on Check Point Quantum Security Gateway, Spark Firewall, and Security Management Server deployments when VPN is enabled. CVE-2026-85102 stems from improper certificate trust validation during VPN negotiation, while CVE-2026-85103 is a heap-based buffer overflow in ASN.1 certificate decoding. Check Point shipped emergency updates on September 9, 2026, including R82.10 Take 44, R82 Take 126, and R81.20 Take 166 or later, plus LivePatch for eligible systems. No public exploit code exists yet, but the NCSC rates exploitation likelihood high and recommends restricting UDP ports 500 and 4500 to known peers as a stopgap.

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.

CVE-2026-85706 | GitLab CE/EE Repository Commits API Path Traversal Vulnerability
GitLab patches CVSS 10.0 path traversal CVE-2026-85706 letting unauthenticated attackers read arbitrary files on self-managed CE/EE servers.
GitLab disclosed CVE-2026-85706, a CVSS 3.1 10.0 path traversal flaw in the repository commits API of self-managed GitLab CE/EE (18.7 before 19.1.8, 19.2 before 19.2.6, 19.3 before 19.3.2), exploitable without authentication to read arbitrary server files. Successful exploitation can expose credentials, tokens, SSH keys, and database credentials accessible to the GitLab process. Fixed versions 19.1.8, 19.2.6, and 19.3.2 were released September 10, 2026; GitLab.com and Dedicated were already patched and no workaround is provided. Horizon3 released a NodeZero Rapid Response test to validate exposure and advises credential rotation for internet-facing instances.

August 2026 CVE Landscape
Insikt Group catalogs 73 high-impact August 2026 CVEs (43 Very Critical), including PaperCut, Zimbra, and Metabase flaws actively exploited or weaponized.
Recorded Future's Insikt Group identified 73 high-impact vulnerabilities in August 2026, 43 rated Very Critical, spanning 45 vendors with Microsoft accounting for roughly 11%. 31 vulnerabilities surfaced via CISA's KEV catalog, with others validated via open sources, vendor telemetry, and honeypot data. New Nuclei detection templates were released for CVE-2025-62593 (Ray), CVE-2026-72898 (Metabase), and CVE-2026-9198 (IBM Langflow). The report also highlights two AI-assisted operations: UAT-10147 exploited Zimbra, AjaxPro, Nacos, and Telerik servers before using DeepAudit and PentestGPT post-compromise, while a separate Chinese-speaking actor weaponized Hermes Agent and DeepSeek in a failed attempt.

Cisco bundles fixes for multiple vulnerabilities, some critical, into one patch
Cisco patched seven IOS XR vulnerabilities, two rated CVSS 9.8, allowing unauthenticated remote code execution and root access on carrier routers; no exploitation observed.
Cisco released fixes for seven internally discovered vulnerabilities in IOS XR, its Linux-based network operating system for carrier-grade routers. Two flaws, CVE-2026-20274 and CVE-2026-20279, are rated CVSS 9.8 (critical) and involve lifetime resource control issues that can enable unauthenticated remote code execution with root access; the other five are rated 8.2-8.8 and cover buffer overflows, access control failures, and out-of-bounds access. All IOS XR releases including IOS XR7 are affected regardless of configuration, no workarounds exist, and remediation requires software maintenance upgrades (SMUs) or fixed releases 26.2.2/26.3.1. Cisco says the flaws are not known to be actively exploited, but experts urge immediate patching of internet-facing and core routing systems, citing parallels with Salt Typhoon tradecraft.

NASA AIT-GUI Flaws Could Let Unauthenticated Attackers Issue Spacecraft Commands
Researchers disclosed 9.4-CVSS flaws in NASA/JPL's AIT-GUI allowing unauthenticated attackers to issue arbitrary spacecraft commands via exposed command endpoints.
Cycode disclosed a flaw chain in AIT-GUI, the browser-based operator console for NASA/JPL's open-source AMMOS Instrument Toolkit, tracked as GHSA-p9r8-2q67-fp86 with CVSS 9.4, affecting versions 2.5.1 and earlier. The server binds to 0.0.0.0:8080, issues sessions without credential checks, and lets unauthenticated users issue spacecraft commands via POST /cmd and reach files outside intended directories via /script/run and /seq (CWE-306, CWE-352, CWE-22). Version 2.5.2 adds host binding and same-origin checks but does not add authentication, and a related missing-authentication flaw was published separately as CVE-2026-60112 with CVSS 9.3.

FortiOS and FortiProxy ZTNA Validation Vulnerability Allows Attacker to Perform a Man-in-the-Middle Attack
Fortinet discloses high-severity certificate validation flaw CVE-2026-84393 in FortiOS and FortiProxy Agentless ZTNA portals enabling unauthenticated man-in-the-middle attacks.
Fortinet disclosed CVE-2026-84393 (CVSSv3 7.3, CWE-295) on September 8, 2026 under advisory FG-IR-26-174: improper certificate validation in the Agentless ZTNA portal of FortiOS and FortiProxy. An unauthenticated attacker on the network path could present a forged or mismatched certificate and intercept or tamper with traffic between the portal and backend destinations, with impact classified as information disclosure. Affected versions are FortiOS 7.6.1 through 7.6.6 and FortiProxy 7.6.2 through 7.6.6; the 8.0, 7.4 and 7.2 branches of both products are unaffected. Fortinet urges upgrading to 7.6.7 or later and reports no evidence of exploitation in the wild.
