CVE-2026-86206, CVE-2026-86207: N-able N-central Authentication Bypass (FIXED)
Rapid7 disclosed two chained N-able N-central flaws, CVE-2026-86206 and CVE-2026-86207, enabling unauthenticated admin account creation; patched in 2026.3 Hotfix 3.
Rapid7 researchers found CVE-2026-86206 (semicolon/Forwarded access-control bypass, CWE-791, CVSSv4 6.9) and CVE-2026-86207 (UserTwoFactorLogin authentication bypass, CWE-305, CVSSv4 7.7) in the latest N-able N-central. Chained, they let a remote unauthenticated attacker create an attacker-controlled System administrator account. The bugs stem from Envoy and Jetty disagreeing on the requested path and whether the client is local. N-able patched both in N-central 2026.3 Hotfix 3, following the earlier CVE-2026-18577 authentication bypass.
We got admin access to Baseten's production GitHub in 25 minutes
Strix autonomous hacking agent extracted a working GitHub token with repo admin rights from Baseten's public Harbor image; Baseten rotated it next day.
Strix, an autonomous hacking agent, scanned *.baseten.co without credentials and found a public Harbor container registry project anonymously exposing the baseten/baseten-app image. A GitHub personal access token for basetenbot, embedded in Docker build history since March 2023, still worked in July 2026 and granted admin/push rights to basetenlabs/baseten, flux-cd, and homebrew-tap plus read/write on private customer repos. Baseten, valued at $13 billion, confirmed the issue as critical and rotated the token within a day.
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.
Amasty patches dozens of Magento extensions, 2 critical
Amasty patched dozens of Magento/Adobe Commerce extensions, including two critical flaws allowing unauthenticated web shell upload and remote code execution.
Extension vendor Amasty released fixes for a large batch of Magento and Adobe Commerce modules, with critical unauthenticated file upload flaws in Advanced Product Reviews and Gift Card that allow attackers to plant web shells and take full control of stores. Dozens of additional high-, medium- and low-severity extensions were also patched. The vendor says the release affects almost every Magento and Adobe Commerce store. A related Order Attributes flaw was previously exploited heavily, with Sansec Shield blocking over 12,000 attempts against 25% of Magento stores in three days.
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.
CVE-2026-34486: Apache Tomcat Auth Bypass Vulnerability
SentinelOne details CVE-2026-34486, an Apache Tomcat EncryptInterceptor bypass exposing unencrypted cluster communications, with patches and workarounds available.
CVE-2026-34486 stems from an incomplete fix for CVE-2026-29146, letting network-positioned attackers bypass the EncryptInterceptor and read plaintext Tomcat cluster traffic, including session and application data between nodes. Affected versions 9.0.116, 10.1.53 and 11.0.20 are fixed in 9.0.117, 10.1.54 and 11.0.21. Workarounds include network-level encryption such as IPsec or VPN tunnels and isolating cluster communications to secured network segments.
WeChat Zero-Click Worm Took Over Accounts on iPhone and Android via Incoming Calls
Researchers demonstrated a zero-click WeChat worm that hijacked accounts via incoming calls; Tencent blocked the exploit server-side after July disclosure, no real attacks reported.
Security firm Calif built a worm that seized WeChat accounts via incoming calls without any target interaction, demonstrating it spreading across three test phones (Android to iPhone to Android). Once exploited, the attacker gains full control of the WeChat account, including messages, calls, payments, and mini programs, though not the phone itself. Tencent mitigated the flaw server-side, confirmed blocked on 28 August, shipping WeChat 8.0.77 for Android and 8.0.76 for iOS on 21 August. No CVE has been assigned, Tencent published no advisory, and no attacks in the wild have been reported; WeChat/Weixin counts 1.439 billion monthly active users.
CVE-2026-50522: Microsoft SharePoint Server RCE Vulnerability
CVE-2026-50522 is an unauthenticated .NET deserialization RCE in SharePoint Server Subscription, 2019, and 2016; Microsoft patched it July 14, 2026.
CVE-2026-50522 (CWE-502) lets unauthenticated attackers send crafted serialized .NET payloads to network-accessible SharePoint endpoints, triggering gadget-chain deserialization and remote code execution under the privileged SharePoint service account. It affects SharePoint Server Subscription Edition, SharePoint Server 2019, and SharePoint Server 2016 Enterprise; Microsoft published the advisory on July 14, 2026. The EPSS score is 20.346%, but no public PoC exists and the flaw is not in CISA's KEV catalog at publication. Mitigations include applying Microsoft updates, rotating SharePoint machine keys, enabling AMSI, and restricting internet exposure.
Microsoft Exchange Vulnerability CVE-2026-62911: What Administrators Should Do and How Zscaler Can Help
High-severity authentication bypass CVE-2026-62911 in Exchange Server has public exploit code; about 22,000 servers remain unpatched and internet-exposed.
Microsoft's August 2026 Patch Tuesday fixed CVE-2026-62911 (CVSS 8.0), an authentication bypass affecting Exchange Server 2016, 2019 and Subscription Edition. Successful exploitation lets an attacker with basic privileges take over all mailboxes on the targeted server, including reading and sending email and downloading attachments.

Microsoft’s massive Patch Tuesday releases continue as AI reshapes bug discovery
Microsoft patches 419 vulnerabilities in record-breaking Patch Tuesday; Windows Winsock zero-day CVE-2026-68820 is actively exploited by Lazarus Group.
Microsoft's August Patch Tuesday fixes 419 vulnerabilities (62 critical, 357 important), among the largest monthly counts on record, following 206 fixes in June and 622 in July as AI-assisted discovery drives unprecedented volume.
