ZDI-26-577: Trend Micro VPN OpenSSL Configuration Uncontrolled Search Path Element Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability

ZDI disclosed a local privilege escalation (CVE-2026-67212, CVSS 7.0) in Trend Micro VPN's OpenSSL configuration, requiring prior low-privileged code execution.

The Zero Day Initiative published advisory ZDI-26-577 describing an uncontrolled search path element vulnerability in Trend Micro VPN's OpenSSL configuration. Local attackers who can already execute low-privileged code on an affected installation can escalate privileges. ZDI rated the issue 7.0 on CVSS and assigned CVE-2026-67212.

CDN Tsunami Attack Abuses HTTP/3 Translation for Up to 350x DoS Amplification

Researchers disclosed two DoS attacks exploiting CDNs' HTTP/3-to-HTTP/1.1 translation to amplify low-bandwidth requests up to 350x against origin servers.

Researchers named the two techniques HTTP/3 Bandwidth Amplification (HBA) and HTTP/3 Connection Amplification (HCA), exploiting the gap where CDNs speak HTTP/3 to browsers but only HTTP/1.1 to origins. All six tested CDNs (Alibaba, Baidu, Cloudflare, CloudFront, Fastly, Tencent) were susceptible to HBA, and five to HCA, with Cloudflare immune to HCA because it buffers full requests before opening backend connections. Attackers using under 5 Mbps forced over 100 Mbps at origins, and the 350x factor applies only to Alibaba, Baidu, and Tencent, which support the QPACK dynamic table. Testing identified 42,330 potentially vulnerable subdomains out of 151,685 hosted on the six providers across the Tranco Top 1M.
