Critical Check Point VPN Vulnerabilities Enable Remote Code Execution Attacks

Check Point patched two critical VPN flaws, CVE-2026-85102 and CVE-2026-85103 (CVSS 9.8), allowing unauthenticated RCE on Security Gateways.

Check Point disclosed and patched two critical VPN vulnerabilities, CVE-2026-85102 (improper certificate trust validation, CWE-295) and CVE-2026-85103 (heap-based buffer overflow in ASN.1 certificate parsing, CWE-122), both rated CVSS 9.8 and exploitable for unauthenticated remote code execution under specific conditions. The flaws affect Security Gateway, Security Management Server, and Spark Firewall deployments on R81.20, R82, and R82.10 branches plus end-of-support versions such as R80.40 and R81, while R82.20 is not affected. Check Point reports no evidence of active exploitation or public PoC; Live Patch rollout began September 9, 2026, and administrators without it must install Jumbo Hotfix Accumulator builds (R82.10 Take 44+, R82 Take 126+, R81.20 Take 166+). For Site-to-Site VPN, restricting UDP ports 500 and 4500 to known peers serves as an interim workaround, but no mitigation exists for Remote Access VPN or Spark Firewalls.

Windows Remote Desktop Client Vulnerability Allows Attackers to Execute Remote Code

Microsoft patched CVE-2026-69485, an 8.8 CVSS RCE flaw in the Windows Remote Desktop Client affecting Windows 10/11 and Server 2016-2025.

Microsoft's September 2026 updates fix CVE-2026-69485, an Important-rated remote code execution vulnerability (CVSS 3.1: 8.8, temporal 7.7) in the Windows Remote Desktop Client caused by use of an uninitialized resource. An authenticated attacker with low privileges could send a specially crafted network request to execute code on an affected server, with no user interaction required. Microsoft says the flaw was not publicly disclosed before patching and rates exploitation as 'Less Likely' with no evidence of active exploitation. Affected products span Windows Server 2016, 2019, 2022 and 2025 and Windows 10 (1607-22H2) and Windows 11 (23H2-26H1), with fixes delivered via KBs including KB5123099, KB5122876 and KB5122882.

Hackers Target Langflow in CVE-2026

Threat actors are actively exploiting CVE-2026-0768, an unauthenticated Python RCE in Langflow, hunting OpenAI, AWS, and SSH credentials.

Attackers began exploiting CVE-2026-0768 (CVSS 9.8), an unauthenticated remote code execution flaw in the code validator of the Langflow AI low-code platform, affecting all versions up to 1.4.2. VulnCheck observed 50+ Canary detections on the first day of exploitation, with attackers checking Langflow, OpenAI, and AWS keys in environment variables, reading the secret key, and looking for SSH access and shell history; most traffic originates from Russia and targeted UK-based canaries. The flaw was reported via ZDI by Trend Research in July 2025 and disclosed in January 2026; six other Langflow CVEs were added to VulnCheck's KEV list this year.
