CVE-2026-59739: Apache ZooKeeper: Information disclosure via SetWatches reconnect replay
CVE-2026-59739: Apache ZooKeeper missing ACL check in SetWatches reconnect replay lets attackers discover ACL-restricted znode paths.
Apache ZooKeeper versions 3.8.0-3.8.6 and 3.9.0-3.9.5 contain a critical information disclosure (CVE-2026-59739) caused by a missing ACL check during SetWatches reconnect replay. An attacker can register exists-watches on non-existent paths and reconnect after those paths are created, revealing the existence of ACL-restricted paths. The issue is fixed in patched releases.
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.
Dell Secure Connect Gateway Critical Flaws Allow Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution and Admin Access
Dell patched three critical Secure Connect Gateway flaws (CVE-2026-80172 up to CVSS 9.8) enabling unauthenticated admin access, remote code execution, and host takeover.
Dell Security Advisory DSA-2026-382 fixes three critical vulnerabilities in Secure Connect Gateway (SCG) 5.0, affecting appliances earlier than 5.36.00.16 and applications earlier than 5.36.00.00. CVE-2026-80172 (CVSS 9.8) allows unauthenticated replay of captured requests to obtain ADMIN access due to missing nonce and time validation; CVE-2026-61410 (9.4) enables unauthenticated command execution via missing authorization; CVE-2026-80238 (9.3) involves an exposed Docker socket allowing root access and container escape. Dell urges immediate upgrades and recommends restricting management interfaces to trusted networks and rotating credentials if compromise is suspected.
Dell Secure Connect Gateway Vulnerabilities Allow Hackers to Gain Unauthorized Access
Dell patches three critical flaws (CVSS up to 9.8) in Secure Connect Gateway 5.0 enabling admin token replay, unauthenticated RCE, and root escalation.
Dell disclosed three critical vulnerabilities in Secure Connect Gateway 5.0 appliance and application deployments. CVE-2026-80172 (CVSS 9.8) lets unauthenticated attackers replay captured requests, which lack nonce validation and time limits, to repeatedly mint administrator access and refresh tokens. CVE-2026-61410 (9.4) is a missing-authorization flaw enabling unauthenticated remote command execution, and CVE-2026-80238 (9.3) is an exposed Docker socket allowing local privilege escalation to root and container escape. Fixes ship in appliance 5.36.00.16 and application 5.36.00.00.

Two zero-days are confirmed exploited in the wild: CVE-2026-81963 (Windows Update Stack EoP) and CVE-2026-85880 (ALPC heap overflow), both letting authenticated attackers gain SYSTEM privileges. Notable criticals include an Entra ID authentication bypass (CVE-2026-62916) and multiple Windows DNS Server and Office remote code execution flaws.
Microsoft’s September 2026 Patch Tuesday addresses 964 CVEs (CVE-2026-81963, CVE-2026-85880)
Microsoft's September 2026 Patch Tuesday fixes a record 964 CVEs, including two zero-days actively exploited in the wild.
Microsoft patched a record 964 CVEs in its September 2026 Patch Tuesday release, with 101 rated critical and 824 rated important, making it the largest Patch Tuesday to date. The release includes fixes for two zero-days that were exploited in the wild, with CVE-2026-81963 and CVE-2026-85880 highlighted in the release. Affected products span Windows core components, Office, Exchange, .NET, Visual Studio, Active Directory services (including AD CS and AD FS) and numerous Azure services. Tenable notes the release surpasses July's as the biggest ever.
Researchers Disclose AI-Assisted SharePoint Exploit Chain Reaching Unauthenticated RCE
Rapid7 disclosed CVE-2026-55040, a SharePoint JWT validation bypass chaining into CVE-2026-63520 unauthenticated RCE, with research substantially AI-agent-assisted; patches released.
Rapid7 disclosed CVE-2026-55040 (CVSS 9.1), several JWT validation pipeline issues letting unauthenticated attackers impersonate chosen SharePoint users by SID or UPN, chained with CVE-2026-63520 (CVSS 8.1), an unsafe .NET type instantiation in Business Connectivity Services yielding RCE as the service account. An AI agent contributed significantly across 96 sessions and roughly 80,000 tool calls over 24 active days, though an expert had to steer it and it repeatedly overstepped its threat model. No exploitation of the bypass had been reported as of CISA's July 14 assessment. The RCE affects SharePoint Subscription Edition, 2019, and 2016, plus Project Server 2013 SP1 and Office Web Apps 2013 SP1; the July updates break the chain.
