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'.

Re: AI slops from Eve

Solar Designer finds little similarity between recent LLM-generated fake advisories on oss-security beyond missing Date headers.

A mailing-list thread discusses 'AI slops', LLM-generated fake security reports posted to oss-security. Solar Designer notes the suspicious messages share only trivial traits like a missing Date header and LLM use. He concludes there is no significant problem with any particular sender or model and no investigation is needed.

Local Privilege Escalation (LPE) in FolkPatch due to Hardcoded Default SuperKey

A hardcoded default SuperKey in FolkPatch, an APatch-based kernel patching tool, enables local privilege escalation limited to FolkPatch's downstream code.

A disclosure posted to the oss-security mailing list describes a local privilege escalation (LPE) in FolkPatch caused by a hardcoded default SuperKey. FolkPatch is a downstream project based on APatch that utilizes its own custom KernelPatch. According to the post, the vulnerability is specific to FolkPatch's downstream modifications rather than upstream APatch or KernelPatch code.

Honeypot-Omaha and batch.py [Guest Diary], (Wed, Sep 2nd)

A SANS ISC guest diary describes batch.py, a Python tool that consolidates honeypot logs and enriches IOCs with threat intelligence data.

Written by a SANS.edu BACS intern, the diary explains analysis of the DShield Honeypot-Omaha sensor, which uses Cowrie to emulate SSH and Telnet and log attacker activity. The author's batch.py script implements a four-phase pipeline with SHA-256-generated master and guest authentication to consolidate JSON and log files, correlate data via external APIs, and produce MITRE, CVE, geolocation, threat-score and fingerprint enrichment for investigated indicators.

Microsoft Tracks MacSync Stealer by Its Behavior, Not Its Domains

Microsoft correlates over 30 rotating domains to track MacSync Stealer, which steals passwords, SSH keys, wallets and AWS credentials.

Microsoft Defender Experts tracked MacSync Stealer, a macOS information stealer, by analyzing recurring behaviors rather than individual domains, linking over 30 domains to the campaign. The infection chain uses the ClickFix social engineering technique, tricking victims into pasting commands in Terminal, then uses curl, AppleScript, and native macOS tools to deploy the payload. The stealer targets Keychain data, browser passwords and cookies, SSH keys, AWS credentials, Kubernetes configurations, and Ledger and Trezor wallet data, staging data before exfiltration via chunked HTTP PUT requests. RST Cloud identified rapid C2 infrastructure replacement after initial public disclosure.

Hackers Use Fake Claude and ChatGPT Installers to Infect Mac Users With Password-Stealing Malware

Attackers distribute MacSync macOS infostealer via fake Claude and ChatGPT installers and sponsored search ads, stealing passwords, cookies, keys, and wallets.

SEQRITE reports a malware-as-a-service campaign pushing MacSync, a macOS password stealer, through sponsored search results and fake Claude and ChatGPT download pages. ClickFix-style prompts trick users into pasting a Terminal command that launches a stager, which loads an in-memory AppleScript to harvest credentials. The malware collects browser vaults, Keychain data, SSH keys, session cookies, messaging sessions, and cryptocurrency wallets, then persists via renamed LaunchAgents and can request screen-recording permissions.

AI slops from Eve

oss-security moderator Solar Designer approved three AI-generated vulnerability reports from automated security researcher Eve, sparking debate over AI slop on the list.

oss-security moderator Solar Designer approved three posts submitted by Eve, described as an 'automated security researcher', noting they lacked Date headers and arrived on the list server on September 9. He expressed uncertainty about their value but suggested they may have historical significance as early examples of AI-generated security reports at the dawn of AI security research. The post is meta-commentary on AI-generated content reaching a vulnerability disclosure mailing list rather than a specific vulnerability disclosure itself.

U.S. CISA adds Apple macOS, Microsoft SharePoint, Broadcom VMware vCenter, and Microsoft IKE flaws to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog

CISA adds actively exploited flaws in Microsoft IKE, SharePoint, VMware vCenter, and macOS Screen Sharing to KEV catalog, due August 21.

CISA added four vulnerabilities to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog: CVE-2026-33824 (Windows IKE remote code execution, CVSS 9.8), CVE-2026-55040 (SharePoint JWT authentication bypass, CVSS 9.1), CVE-2026-59310 (VMware vCenter Syslog path traversal, CVSS 9.8), and CVE-2026-65400 (macOS Screen Sharing improper authentication). The SharePoint flaw combines four weaknesses including alg:none JWT forging to impersonate any user, with Defused researchers observing attackers using Rapid7's PoC against honeypots. The Dutch NCSC confirmed active exploitation of the macOS Screen Sharing flaw on August 15, 2026. Federal agencies must patch by August 21, 2026.

Hackers Disable Endpoint Protection and Deploy Sliver Across Compromised Windows Domain

The Hunter's Ledger tracked campaign UTA-2026-024 using Sliver C2, Domain Admin account creation, and Ethereum-based C2 rotation to compromise a US organization's Windows domain.

The Hunter's Ledger tracked an intrusion at one unnamed US organization as UTA-2026-024, staged from exposed server 193.233.202.17 with a Sliver beacon. Operators created a non-expiring Domain Admin account, enabled RDP with NLA disabled, dumped SAM, SYSTEM and SECURITY hives plus LSASS memory, and disabled eight endpoint protection services. A Node.js implant resolved its C2 server from an Ethereum smart contract that rotated domains five times in five months, while SYSTEM scheduled tasks with backdated dates and DNS allowlist manipulation provided persistence. The infrastructure ties to a confirmed ransomware incident, but no encryptor deployment was proven in this intrusion.

Attackers exploit patched macOS Screen Sharing flaw to deploy cryptominer

Attackers actively exploit patched macOS Screen Sharing bug CVE-2026-65400 on systems with port 5900 exposed, gaining root to install a Monero cryptominer.

The Netherlands' National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) reports active exploitation of CVE-2026-65400, an authentication flaw in macOS Screen Sharing that lets attackers authenticate without valid login credentials. Apple patched the issue in macOS Sequoia 15.7.9, Sonoma 14.8.9 and Tahoe 26.6.1, and the NCSC escalated its advisory on August 12 after proof-of-concept code went public and reports arrived of attacks on internet-exposed systems. In every reported case attackers obtained root access and installed a Monero crypto miner; users who cannot patch immediately are advised to disable Screen Sharing.

Trezor warns users of email provider breach, phishing attacks

Trezor says attackers breached its third-party email provider and are phishing customers with fake STM32 entropy vulnerability alerts.

Trezor warned customers that threat actors breached its third-party email provider and sent fake 'Critical Security Alert: STM32 Entropy Vulnerability' emails from [email protected], claiming wallet seeds were exposed to brute-force attacks; the phishing domain has been taken down while Trezor investigates. This follows the ShipMonk breach, revised upward from about 14,000 to 81,000 customers (including 67,000 additional US customers) who received orders between May 10 and August 8, 2026. Attackers reportedly exploited a Metabase SQL injection zero-day to access ShipMonk data, and ShinyHunters sent extortion emails.
