CVE-2026-16232: Check Point SmartConsole Auth Bypass
Check Point SmartConsole authentication bypass CVE-2026-16232 grants unauthenticated attackers full admin access; actively exploited and added to CISA KEV.
CVE-2026-16232 is an improper authentication flaw (CWE-287) in the Check Point SmartConsole login process that lets an unauthenticated remote attacker obtain an application token and authenticate with full administrative privileges. Exploitation requires the Management Server to be internet-reachable and the Trusted Clients list not restricted to specific administrator addresses. Check Point confirmed active exploitation affecting a small number of customers, and the vulnerability has been added to the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. A hotfix is available via Check Point advisory sk185169.

Hackers Favor US Eastern Business Hours in M365 Phishing Campaign
KnowBe4 tracked 29,785 phishing emails abusing Microsoft 365 Direct Send to spoof internal senders while timing sends to US Eastern business hours.
KnowBe4 Threat Lab observed 29,785 confirmed phishing emails between July and August 2026 abusing Microsoft 365's Direct Send feature, which lets devices and legacy apps send mail without a dedicated account. The emails appeared to come from trusted internal addresses such as HR or accounting, bypassing email gateways by connecting directly to Exchange Online MX endpoints, with activity peaking on Monday-Tuesday during US Eastern business hours and near-zero weekend volume. About 35% of the messages carried malicious attachments like fake invoices, voicemail alerts, and OneDrive shares, and 4,023 used reply-to addresses on different domains to capture employee responses. Researchers recommended strict DMARC enforcement, connector restrictions, DKIM signing, and checking for the 'X-MS-Exchange-Organization-AuthAs: Anonymous' Exchange header.

LiteLLM Flaws Let Attackers Execute Code as Root and Steal Cloud Credentials
Wiz disclosed LiteLLM flaws including CVE-2026-59822 MCP auth bypass, now in CISA KEV, enabling root RCE and AWS credential theft from exposed gateways.
Wiz researchers disclosed weaknesses in the open-source LiteLLM AI gateway: CVE-2026-59821 allows authenticated administrators to execute code as root via the Custom Code Guardrails feature, while CVE-2026-59822 is an MCP authentication bypass where a meaningless Bearer token establishes a valid session. The MCP bypass was observed in the wild through Wiz honeypots and added to CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on September 2. A scan of 3,074 internet-facing instances found 294 (9.6%) accepting the default master key sk-1234 or lacking authentication. Fixes shipped in LiteLLM 1.82.0 (guardrail hardening) and 1.84.0 (MCP bypass); exposed instances can leak provider API keys and temporary AWS IAM credentials via the pass-through feature and metadata service, with a related config-check issue tracked as CVE-2026-35029.

FBI Disrupts China-Linked QTFY Infrastructure Used to Steal Data From U.S. Organizations
FBI and Lumen disrupted QTFY's QScan and QTRouter botnet platforms used by Chinese state-sponsored hackers to conceal intrusions into U.S. agencies.
The U.S. DoJ announced court-authorized seizure of domains behind QScan and QTRouter, operated by the Chinese state-sponsored group QTFY and employed by Nanjing Xinjiuwei Network Technology Company. QTFY has been active since May 2018 and targeted NASA, the Federal Reserve, the Department of Energy, DoJ, HHS, NIH, the U.S. Senate, and academic institutions. QScan exploits vulnerable IoT devices, feeding them into QTRouter, an OpenWrt-based proxy obfuscation network likened to an operational relay box (ORB) that masks attack origins. The group exploited zero-days such as Ivanti CSA flaws CVE-2024-8190, CVE-2024-8963, and CVE-2024-9380, plus numerous N-days, and maintained persistence with RATs, web shells, and legitimate credentials.
