ZDI-26-698: Linux Kernel NTFS3 Out-Of-Bounds Read Information Disclosure Vulnerability

ZDI-26-698: Linux Kernel NTFS3 out-of-bounds read (CVSS 5.2) allows local attackers to disclose sensitive information on affected systems.

ZDI advisory ZDI-26-698 describes an out-of-bounds read in the Linux Kernel NTFS3 driver rated CVSS 5.2. Exploitation requires the attacker to first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target. The impact is limited to local information disclosure. No CVE identifier is listed in the advisory.

Shared Hosting at Risk: LiteSpeed Enterprise Bug Can Grant Root from a Single Tenant

Critical LiteSpeed Web Server Enterprise flaw (pre-6.3.7) lets a low-privilege shared-hosting tenant escape CageFS isolation and gain root; forced update urged.

cPanel warned that a critical privilege-escalation vulnerability in LiteSpeed Web Server Enterprise (fixed in 6.3.7) lets a malicious low-privilege website user bypass account isolation controls including CloudLinux CageFS and gain root on shared-hosting servers, enabling cross-tenant compromise. No CVE, severity rating, or technical details have been published, and it is unclear whether the flaw is being exploited. This is the third root-level LiteSpeed escape on cPanel servers since May, following CVE-2026-48172 and CVE-2026-54420, which were actively exploited and added to CISA's KEV catalog.

cPanel ConfigServer Security & Firewall Vulnerability Allows Remote Attacker to Execute Arbitrary Commands

CSF 14.00–16.29 (CVE-2026-65638) lets unauthenticated attackers execute arbitrary commands via the MESSENGER service on cPanel/WHM servers; version 16.30 fixes it.

CVE-2026-65638 affects ConfigServer Security & Firewall (CSF) versions 14.00 through 16.29 and allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands through the MESSENGER service, running under the unprivileged CSF service account rather than root. Exploitation requires the non-default MESSENGER service to be enabled and a reCAPTCHA secret configured, reducing exposure for standard deployments. CSF 16.30 and later fix the flaw; administrators who cannot update immediately can set MESSENGER = 0 in /etc/csf/csf.conf as a temporary mitigation.

Chrome DevTools Technique Enables Authenticated Session Hijacking in Live Windows Browsers

SpecterOps released CDP-Enable-BOF, a Beacon Object File that enables Chrome DevTools Protocol in live Chrome or Edge processes on Windows for session hijacking.

SpecterOps released CDP-Enable-BOF, an x64 Beacon Object File that activates Chrome DevTools Protocol inside running chrome.exe or msedge.exe processes on Windows, exposing cookies, history, saved passwords, and authenticated sessions without administrator rights. It calls Chromium's StartRemoteDebuggingServer on the browser UI thread to stay reliable under CFG, TLS, and CET, and was tested on Chrome 147 and Edge 147. The technique builds on work by DeathFlamingo and Cedric Van Bockhaven; Google had hardened remote debugging in Chrome 136 after attackers used it to steal cookies post-App-Bound Encryption. Defenders can watch Sysmon Event IDs 8 and 10 for injection into browser processes.

cPanel LiteSpeed Web Server Vulnerability Allows Shared Server Users to Gain Root-Level Access

Critical LiteSpeed Enterprise flaw fixed in 6.3.7 lets low-privilege shared-hosting users escalate to root and bypass CageFS.

cPanel issued an urgent advisory for a critical privilege escalation in LiteSpeed Web Server Enterprise versions before 6.3.7, allowing a low-privilege shared-hosting account to gain root-level server control and bypass tenant isolation controls including CloudLinux CageFS. Root access would let attackers access other hosted sites, steal databases and credentials, deploy phishing pages, and install backdoors. Administrators are urged to upgrade to 6.3.7 immediately via lsup.sh and to review privileged account activity, cron jobs, SSH keys, and system binaries; no CVE identifier was published.

U.S. CISA adds PaperCut NG/MF flaws to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog

CISA added two actively exploited PaperCut NG/MF pre-auth flaws to the KEV catalog; federal agencies must patch by September 14.

CISA added CVE-2026-81578 (CVSS 8.8, missing authentication for critical function) and CVE-2026-82078 (CVSS 9.4, unsafe reflection) in PaperCut NG/MF to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.

Compiler Can Undo Your Security Checks

Chris Domas explains at Black Hat how legal compiler optimizations can strip security checks and memory-clearing operations, turning secure C source into vulnerable binaries.

David Bombal interviews researcher Chris Domas at Black Hat USA 2026 about how the C abstract machine permits compilers to legally transform code in ways that remove security protections, delete memory-clearing operations, and introduce time-of-check to time-of-use vulnerabilities. Factors like register pressure, structure layout, and data size affect vulnerability, with examples where 17 or 33 byte buffers are safe while nearby sizes produce vulnerable code. An AI-assisted analysis of 500 million lines of open-source code identified 300 potentially dangerous patterns. Recommended mitigations include enabling compiler warnings, using sanitizers, analyzing optimized builds, and testing the exact binary that ships.

Back-to-back N-able bugs send admins on a patching spree
