CVE-2026-76461: Critical Cisco Secure Email Gateway Vulnerability Exploited in the Wild

Cisco Secure Email Gateway zero-day CVE-2026-76461 (CVSS 9.8) enables unauthenticated root command execution via crafted email; CISA added it to KEV.

CVE-2026-76461 is a critical SQL injection (CVSS 9.8) in Cisco AsyncOS for Secure Email Gateway allowing an unauthenticated remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands with root privileges by sending a specially crafted email through a vulnerable gateway. CISA added it to the KEV catalog on disclosure day, indicating zero-day exploitation, and Cisco PSIRT became aware of active exploitation in September 2026. No public PoC or attribution exists; fixed versions are 15.5.5-014, 16.0.4-302, and 16.5.0-780, and admins should check mail_logs for suspicious SQL statements like 'COPY.*TO PROGRAM'.

SAP Commerce Cloud CVE-2026-58231 Targeted in Exploitation Attempts Days After Patch

A maximum-severity (CVSS 10.0) unauthenticated RCE flaw in SAP Commerce Cloud, CVE-2026-58231, is under active exploitation days after patching.

CVE-2026-58231, rated 10.0 on CVSS, stems from insufficient authorization checks and input validation in SAP Commerce Cloud, enabling unauthenticated arbitrary code execution. Defused Cyber's honeypots detected exploitation attempts three days after the patch, and KEVIntel independently confirmed two attempts on August 14 from a US IP address. Onapsis urges customers to patch and rebuild, with an IP Filter Set offered as a temporary workaround.

CVE-2026-89775: Guest-to-Host Escape in KVM/arm64

Disclosed CVE-2026-89775 lets a guest VM escape to the host on KVM/arm64 systems with nested virtualization enabled.

Researcher Hyunwoo Kim disclosed CVE-2026-89775, a guest-to-host escape in KVM/arm64, after the embargo agreed with linux-distros maintainers expired. The root cause is a type truncation of the stage-1 walk level that makes a size computation return 0, the value meaning 'size unknown'. The VNCR pseudo-TLB invalidation path then interprets that 0 as a valid value on ARM64 hosts where nested virtualization is enabled.
