Learn How to Build Security Operations Ready for AI
Wiz sponsors a webinar on building AI-ready security operations, focusing on attack-path visibility, exposure prioritization, and faster detection-to-remediation workflows.
A contributed piece promotes next week's Wiz webinar, How to Build AI Threat Readiness Across Your Security Operations, featuring a Wiz expert. The session covers using unified security context to separate urgent exposures from noise, understand attack paths across cloud, code, identities, SaaS, and AI services, and connect validated risks to remediation owners.

Attackers Chain JFrog Artifactory Flaws to Gain Admin Control and Plant Backdoors
Attackers chained JFrog Artifactory flaws CVE-2026-42018 and CVE-2026-42016 for admin control, planting Rust backdoors; CVE-2026-82329 also mass-exploited.
Wiz observed attackers chaining CVE-2026-42018 (anonymous-token leak) and CVE-2026-42016 (token escalation) in self-hosted JFrog Artifactory between August 15 and September 8, gaining admin control, creating admin accounts, and installing malicious Groovy plugins and a custom Rust backdoor. Separately, critical authentication bypass CVE-2026-82329 (CVSS 9.8) was mass-exploited starting September 1, drawing ~406,000 exploitation attempts on September 2 per Fastly. CISA added CVE-2026-82329 to KEV on September 2 with a September 5 federal deadline. Patching does not revoke minted tokens or rotate stolen join keys; admins must review accounts and rotate credentials.

CISA Adds 5 Actively Exploited Artifactory, ScreenConnect, and RouterOS Flaws to KEV
CISA added five actively exploited JFrog Artifactory, ConnectWise ScreenConnect, and MikroTik RouterOS flaws to its KEV catalog.
CISA added five actively exploited vulnerabilities to the KEV catalog: CVE-2026-42016 and CVE-2026-42018 in JFrog Artifactory, CVE-2026-84869 in ConnectWise ScreenConnect (CVSS 9.9), and CVE-2026-67277 and CVE-2026-86060 in MikroTik RouterOS. The Artifactory bugs are chained with CVE-2026-82329 to gain administrative control, deploy malicious Groovy plugins, and install Rust-based backdoors. CERT Polska dubbed the RouterOS chain 'MikroTrick'; FCEB agencies must patch between September 13 and 25, 2026.

Rust Supply Chain Attack Puts Build-Time Malware in Crates with 245 Million Downloads
Compromised maintainer account published malicious versions of popular Rust crates with 245M downloads, delivering a build-time payload via typosquatted proc-macro1 dependency.
The Rust Project deleted malicious releases of arrayref 0.3.10, internment 0.8.7, and append-only-vec 0.1.9 from crates.io after a compromised maintainer account added a typosquatted dependency, proc-macro1, whose build script downloaded and executed a remote payload during compilation. Each malicious version was online for 86 to 107 minutes on August 20, 2026, before deletion. The build script disabled TLS validation and deployed OS-specific implants on Unix, macOS, and Windows, with builds alone sufficient to trigger execution. Wiz Research confirmed active exploitation, noting the impacted packages appear in 35% of cloud and code environments and over 75% of Rust-using environments; arrayref alone has 245 million all-time downloads and 403 dependent crates.
