Hackers Allegedly Selling Fortinet FortiGate 1-Day Vulnerability on Underground Forumsnew

An unverified underground listing offers a claimed FortiGate SSL VPN RCE exploit for FortiOS 7.2.x/7.4.x amid ongoing exploitation of known Fortinet flaws.

Dark Web Intelligence shared an advertisement for a private '1-day' remote code execution exploit targeting FortiGate SSL VPN appliances on FortiOS 7.2.x and 7.4.x, with a claimed proof-of-concept video but no CVE, firmware builds, or technical details. The listing coincides with confirmed in-the-wild exploitation of CVE-2025-25249, an unauthenticated heap-based buffer overflow patched in January 2026 but exploited since July 2026, and CVE-2024-21762, a critical out-of-bounds write in the FortiOS and FortiProxy SSL VPN component. Fortinet has advised disabling SSL VPN where immediate upgrades are not possible.

Thai Broadband Provider Hacked via Fortinet Vulnerability

Hackers exploited Fortinet CVE-2024-21762 RCE to breach Thai broadband provider 3BB, deploying MeshCentral backdoors and credential-harvesting tools across its network.

Hunt.io uncovered an intrusion staging directory in Thailand containing 298 files of custom tooling built for Triple T Broadband (3BB) and its former owner Jasmine. Initial access came via fingerprinting a FortiGate SSL-VPN appliance and exploiting CVE-2024-21762 for remote code execution, after probing CVE-2018-13379, CVE-2022-42475, and CVE-2023-27997. The actor also probed F5 BIG-IP for CVE-2021-22986, CVE-2022-1388, and CVE-2023-46747, escalated privileges with PwnKit and Dirty COW, used MeshCentral as a C2 backdoor, harvested SSH/database/SNMP/Radius credentials, deployed PHP web shells, and ran cleanup scripts to hide the intrusion.

Cisco Secure Email Gateway Flaw Exploited in the Wild, Enables Root Command Execution

Cisco warns CVE-2026-76461 in Secure Email Gateway AsyncOS is actively exploited, letting unauthenticated attackers run root commands via crafted emails.

Cisco disclosed CVE-2026-76461, a CVSS 9.8 flaw in AsyncOS for Cisco Secure Email Gateway caused by insufficient validation in email parsing, allowing unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL statements leading to root command execution. Active exploitation began in September 2026, and CISA added the flaw to its KEV catalog, requiring FCEB agencies to patch by September 17, 2026. Fixes are available in AsyncOS 15.5.5-0141, 16.0.4-302, and 16.5.0-780, with no workarounds. Cisco also contacted Secure Email Cloud customers where malicious activity was detected, and the article separately notes large-scale credential attacks on Fortinet VPN appliances generating tens of millions of authentication failures.

Hackers Exploit FortiGate SSL-VPN Vulnerability to Attack Broadband Provider

Exposed attacker staging server reveals intrusion of Thai broadband provider 3BB via actively exploited FortiGate SSL-VPN flaw CVE-2024-21762.

Hunt.io found an open directory on server 92.63.180[.]133 holding 298 files detailing an intrusion into Triple T Broadband's 3BB brand, starting from a FortiGate 60F SSL-VPN at mail.3bb.co[.]th:10443. The actor weaponized CVE-2024-21762 (CVSS 9.8, KEV-listed since February 2024) using heap spraying and a ROP chain to gain a reverse shell. Post-exploitation included MeshCentral root-level persistence via www.ayuthayatech[.]com, Dirty COW/PwnKit privilege escalation, credential harvesting, SSH spraying against 55+ internal addresses, and log-deleting cleanup scripts; a stolen OpenVPN certificate and key from Triple T's PKI may still be valid.
