ZDI-26-625: Backblaze Personal Computer Backup bzserv Link Following Denial-of-Service Vulnerability

ZDI disclosed CVE-2026-19820, a CVSS 6.1 local link-following denial-of-service flaw in the bzserv component of Backblaze Personal Computer Backup.

The Zero Day Initiative published advisory ZDI-26-625 for a denial-of-service vulnerability in Backblaze Personal Computer Backup's bzserv component. A local attacker must already be able to execute low-privileged code on the system to trigger the flaw, which involves link following. ZDI assigned a CVSS score of 6.1 and the CVE identifier CVE-2026-19820.

Acronis cPanel Backup Plugin Vulnerability Exploited in Targeted Attacks

Acronis warns CVE-2026-87886, a local privilege escalation flaw in its cPanel/WHM and Plesk backup plugins, is exploited in targeted attacks.

Acronis disclosed CVE-2026-87886 (CVSS 7.8), a high-severity local privilege escalation caused by insecure file permissions in its Backup plugin for cPanel & WHM and Backup extension for Plesk on Linux. Affected versions include cPanel & WHM plugin builds before 1.9.3.1021 (fixed in 1.9.3 HF3) and Plesk extension builds before 1.8.11.638. A low-privileged attacker could escalate permissions and potentially run arbitrary code, impacting confidentiality and integrity of the application. Acronis says exploitation has been detected in the wild in limited, targeted attacks, but has not identified the attackers, timing, or objectives.

Re: pcre2 version 10.48 released with security fixes

PCRE2 10.48 ships security fixes; one issue received CVE-2026-86145 while others await identifiers amid CNA backlogs.

Salvatore Bonaccorso noted on oss-security that PCRE2 version 10.48 includes security fixes, with one issue assigned CVE-2026-86145 and remaining fixes not yet assigned identifiers. The post criticizes large CNA backlogs delaying CVE assignment, which complicates downstream fix tracking. No exploitation is reported.

PostgreSQL Fixes 12-Year-Old Logical Decoding Flaw Enabling Replication-Role Code Execution

PostgreSQL fixed CVE-2026-6471 (CVSS 7.2), a 12-year-old logical decoding flaw letting replication-role accounts execute arbitrary code as the database OS user.

PostgreSQL patched CVE-2026-6471 (CVSS 7.2), a flaw present since logical decoding shipped in 9.4 (2014) that lets an account with the REPLICATION attribute run arbitrary code as the database server's OS user when wal_level is logical. Versions before 18.6, 17.11, 16.15, 15.19, and 14.24 are affected; exploitation requires such an account, which backup, CDC, and monitoring tooling routinely holds. The fix adds an output_plugin_libraries whitelist, so administrators using non-default plugins such as wal2json and decoderbufs must add them and reload configuration after updating. Cyera Research, whose write-up names the flaw PostGREShell, demonstrated escalating a replication user to superuser with persistence; no PoC or KEV entry existed as of September 4.

Decade-old PostgreSQL flaw turns backup account into a backdoor

Cyera disclosed CVE-2026-6471, a decade-old PostgreSQL flaw letting REPLICATION-attribute accounts achieve RCE and superuser compromise, patched August 13.

Cyera Research's 'PostGREShell' flaw exists in PostgreSQL's logical replication output plugin loading, where the replication code path never called the library-path security check, allowing path traversal or UNC paths to load arbitrary code. A low-privilege backup account can achieve code execution on Windows, Linux, and macOS, then escalate to superuser with persistent backdoor access. CVE-2026-6471 affects versions back to PostgreSQL 9.4 (2014) and was patched in releases 18.6, 17.11, 16.15, 15.19, and 14.24 on August 13. CVSS is 7.2, and no exploitation of this specific CVE has been confirmed, though VirusTotal hunting found 114 malicious PostgreSQL plugins.

Attackers exploiting CVE-2025-25249 in Fortinet FortiGate firewalls deploy PivotC2, a post-exploitation RAT, on exposed edge devices.

SOCRadar reports that exploitation of CVE-2025-25249 is being used to deploy PivotC2, a purpose-built post-exploitation RAT, on FortiGate firewall appliances. The attack follows the common pattern of compromising public-facing edge devices such as VPNs, routers, and firewalls as the initial entry point. Defenders running FortiGate appliances should prioritize patching and watch for post-exploitation activity indicating RAT deployment.

Plesk Backup Manager Flaw Lets Low-Privileged Users Gain Root Access to Servers

CVE-2026-68488 in Plesk Backup Manager lets low-privileged subscription users exploit a symlink race during restores to gain root on Linux servers.

CVE-2026-68488 is a symlink race condition in Plesk Obsidian for Linux Backup Manager during subscription-content restore operations, allowing a user with Panel and FTP access to change ownership of files outside their subscription and escalate to full root access. Affected versions are Plesk for Linux 18.0.80.6 and earlier and 18.0.79.10 and earlier; Plesk for Windows is not affected. Patches are available in 18.0.80.7 and 18.0.79.11 or later. The flaw requires valid subscription access, so it is not unauthenticated remote code execution, but successful exploitation yields complete server compromise, especially dangerous in shared-hosting and multi-tenant deployments.

VU#456290: Hugging Face Transformers library writes remote code to disk prior to consent check

CVE-2026-80047: Hugging Face Transformers 4.49.0 through 5.8.1 writes attacker-controlled Python files to disk before the trust_remote_code consent check.

CERT/CC vulnerability note VU#456290 describes CVE-2026-80047 in the Hugging Face Transformers library, affecting versions 4.49.0 through 5.8.1. The library performs a remote module fetch and writes attacker-controlled Python files to the local disk before evaluating the trust_remote_code consent prompt, without user authorization. This violates the security contract enforced across other dynamic module-loading paths in the library. Transformers is a primary framework for training and inference across NLP, vision, audio, video, and multimodal machine learning systems.

Researchers Use Claude to Port Pre-Auth RCE Exploit From One PLC Model to Another

Forescout used Anthropic's Claude to port a working pre-auth RCE exploit for CVE-2021-31886 between WAGO PLCs, executing ARM shellcode on live hardware.

Forescout Vedere Labs used Claude interactively to port an RCE exploit for CVE-2021-31886, a CVSS 9.8 stack buffer overflow in the Nucleus FTP server's USER command, from a WAGO 750-852 to a WAGO 750-831 PLC, running attacker-supplied ARM shellcode. The final RCE stage cost $535.74 in API usage over 8 hours 32 minutes, and a follow-up attempt to build a C2 implant permanently bricked the device. CERT@VDE lists many Nucleus V1-based WAGO models as vulnerable with no updates available; Siemens plans no Nucleus NET remediation. The work follows a joint NSA/CISA/FBI/DOE/EPA advisory warning of AI-generated exploitation scripts targeting internet-exposed Siemens S7 PLCs.
