CISA Warns of Critical ScreenConnect Vulnerability Actively Exploited in Attacks

CISA added actively exploited ConnectWise ScreenConnect flaw CVE-2026-84869 to the KEV catalog, setting a September 14 patch deadline.

CISA added CVE-2026-84869, a critical improper privilege management and missing authorization flaw (CWE-269, CWE-862) in ConnectWise ScreenConnect, to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog on September 11, 2026, confirming active exploitation. The flaw lets attackers transfer files to a device and execute them during an active remote ScreenConnect session without authorization or host-user confirmation, enabling payload delivery, unauthorized tools, and persistence while blending into legitimate remote-management traffic. CISA set a September 14 remediation deadline under BOD 26-04 and flagged the vulnerability as requiring forensic triage. ConnectWise has published a security bulletin, and defenders are urged to review exposure, sessions, file-transfer records, and outbound connections.

CVE-2026-86218 | N-able N-central Pre-Authentication Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

N-able N-central pre-auth RCE CVE-2026-86218 (CVSS 10.0) is actively exploited; CISA added it to KEV and a hotfix is available.

CVE-2026-86218 is a critical pre-authentication remote code execution flaw (CWE-96 static code injection) in N-able N-central servers, scored 10.0 CVSS 4.0 by N-able and 9.8 CVSS 3.1 by NIST. N-able fixed it in N-central 2026.3 Hotfix 4 (build 2026.3.1.14) on September 5, 2026, and has already patched hosted NCOD environments. CISA added the CVE to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on September 8, 2026, citing evidence of active exploitation, though researchers have not attributed every reported N-central compromise to this flaw. Horizon3 released a NodeZero Rapid Response test to validate exposure and recommends log review for prior compromise.

America's Driver's License Breach Is a National Security Disaster

Dark web service Nexus sells 153 million US/Canadian driver's licenses linked to a breach of identity verifier IDScan.

Krebs on Security revealed a dark web service, Nexus, selling access to 153 million driver's licenses and 3 million travel documents from US and Canadian citizens, roughly 63 percent of all US licenses. Circumstantial evidence links the data to identity verification firm IDScan, which confirmed it is investigating a breach, and the FBI is probing the incident. Licenses belonging to senior US officials, including Pete Hegseth, an FBI assistant director, and Krebs's own contacts were verified as genuine. The exfiltration appears ongoing, with the database growing by nearly 400,000 licenses in a single day, and the data carries significant national security value for foreign intelligence services.

Cisco warns customers of actively exploited zero-day in email gateways

Actively exploited Cisco Secure Email Gateway zero-day CVE-2026-76461 allows unauthenticated root command execution; CISA added it to KEV.

Cisco disclosed CVE-2026-76461, a zero-day in AsyncOS for Cisco Secure Email Gateway that was exploited before disclosure and lets unauthenticated remote attackers execute commands with root privileges on cloud and on-premises instances. CISA promptly added the flaw to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, and Cisco has directly contacted cloud customers with indicators of compromise while deploying mitigations. Rapid7 and VulnCheck warn compromised gateways could enable silent email monitoring and internal pivoting from on-premises deployments.
