CVE-2026-78330: Apache Syncope: Privilege escalation for admin user via JWT authentication

Apache Syncope allows privilege escalation for an admin user via misconfigured internal JWT JWKS authentication settings, versions through 4.1.2.

CVE-2026-78330 is a moderate-severity incorrect privilege assignment vulnerability in Apache Syncope's syncope-core-spring module. When the configured JWKS settings for internal JWT authentication are misconfigured, an admin user can escalate privileges. Affected versions are 3.0.0-M0 through 3.0.16, 4.0.0-M0 through 4.0.7, and 4.1.0-M0 through 4.1.2.

CVE-2026-76187: Apache Airflow Keycloak provider: Any realm client's credentials mint an Airflow session JWT

Apache Airflow Keycloak provider before 0.10.0 lets any confidential client's credentials in the realm mint an Airflow session JWT.

CVE-2026-76187 affects apache-airflow-providers-keycloak before 0.10.0. The unauthenticated token endpoint accepts a client-credentials grant for any confidential client registered in the Keycloak realm, not only the client configured for Airflow. No allowlist restricts which client ids may authenticate, so credentials of an unrelated application can obtain an Airflow session JWT. Severity is rated moderate.

Apache Syncope Vulnerabilities Allow Attackers to Execute Malicious Code and Bypass Controls

Apache Syncope fixed three flaws enabling SQL injection, Groovy sandbox escape, and JWT token theft to impersonate higher-privileged users.

Apache Syncope, an open-source identity management and access governance platform, disclosed CVE-2026-82232, a stacked-query SQL injection in the Task search sort parameter; CVE-2026-77147, a Groovy sandbox escape via malicious Command classes; and CVE-2026-73178, retrieval of signed JWT access tokens via REST enabling impersonation of more privileged users. All three flaws require administrator-level entitlements to exploit and affect Syncope 3.0, 4.0, and 4.1 releases. Fixes shipped in versions 4.0.8 and 4.1.3, with researchers Alon Galili and n0mi1k credited.

CVE-2026-82310: Apache Airflow FAB provider: FAB auth manager: deactivated users retain and renew Core API JWT access

Apache Airflow FAB provider 2.0.0-3.8.x lets deactivated users keep unexpired Core API JWTs and mint replacements indefinitely.

CVE-2026-82310 affects apache-airflow-providers-fab versions 2.0.0 before 3.9.0. Deactivating a user account does not stop tokens issued before deactivation. While password authentication correctly rejects the disabled account, the Core API continues to accept an existing unexpired token naming it and lets that token mint a replacement. Severity is rated moderate.

BlackHatSect0r Hackers Disable AI Safety Controls to Automate Credential Theft and Cyberattacksnew

French-speaking crew BlackHatSect0r disabled AI agent safety controls to automate scanning, credential harvesting, and vishing, exposing 16,834 stolen credentials.

Socradar researchers analyzed the exposed infrastructure of a French-speaking crew called BlackHatSect0r && DXQRTXX, which ran a Nous Research Hermes agent on a DeepSeek model with safety controls removed via HERMES_DISABLE_SAFETY=1. A custom Go-based C2 platform, DXSCAN, was exposed on port 8080 with over 200 secret-detection patterns, a vault of 16,834 harvested credentials, and scanning activity queuing 2.75 million domains and reaching more than 726,000 hosts. The kit also held a database of roughly 450,000 French telecom subscriber records used to prepare vishing lures impersonating Société Générale, plus JWT-forging tooling for a cryptocurrency exchange. Most confirmed compromises relied on exposed secrets and cloud misconfiguration rather than novel exploits; the one cited vulnerability, CVE-2026-42530, is an NGINX HTTP/3 QPACK use-after-free fixed in version 1.31.2.

New IoT Malware Uses Public Linux Exploits to Gain Root and Launch DDoS Attacks

Nozomi details KATARU, an IoT botnet that brute-forces Telnet, exploits public Linux kernel flaws for root access, and launches multi-protocol DDoS attacks.

KATARU, discovered after honeypot Telnet brute-force activity from a Vietnamese IP, downloads an ARM payload (vlxx.arm) and attempts privilege escalation by editing /etc/passwd or exploiting CVE-2026-46300 (Fragnesia), CVE-2026-43284 (Dirty Frag), and CVE-2026-31431 (Copy Fail). It combines Mirai-style TCP, UDP, ICMP, HTTP, QUIC and DNS floods with application attacks against Minecraft, FiveM, OpenVPN and WireGuard. The malware uses X25519 and ChaCha20-Poly1305 encrypted C2, unusually broad persistence across systemd, cron, init frameworks, and Android hooks, plus anti-debugging and decoy traffic to hinder analysis. Implementers copied x86 shellcode into the ARM binary and reused an RFC 7748 test-vector key, indicating low-quality but rapidly evolving commodity development.
