R-Vision VM 6.6 Adds Container Scanning, Web Application Audits and Mobile Scanner for Isolated Networks
R-Vision has released version 6.6 of its R-Vision VM vulnerability management system, significantly expanding the product’s ability to discover vulnerabilities in web applications, container environments and previously inaccessible network segments.
The new web-audit module automatically detects and inventories web resources before searching for related vulnerabilities. While the company acknowledges that these capabilities remain basic and do not aim to replace specialized DAST tools, all discovered issues are now consolidated within the single R-Vision VM console alongside results from other scanning methods.
Container auditing now covers Docker and Kubernetes environments, including runtime analysis. The system collects data on the composition and current state of container infrastructure, identifies security issues and displays findings directly in the corresponding host card.
The standout feature of the release is a mobile scanner designed for closed network segments that the central R-Vision VM instance cannot reach. The component is installed on a standard laptop and operates without any additional servers. A specialist can travel to an isolated site, perform an audit and later upload the results to the main system.
The mobile scanner supports White Box, Black Box, Compliance and web-audit modes, performs full inventory and is rated for environments containing up to 2000 hosts. Primary use cases include critical information infrastructure facilities, remote branches, air-gapped networks, on-site audits and temporary projects.
Version 6.6 also extends inventory capabilities for ESXi, vCenter and network equipment, updates compliance checks, dashboards, automation policies and data export functions. Agents can now be updated directly from the web interface, and initial deployment is simplified by an installation wizard.

Atlassian Fixes Critical Path Traversal Flaw CVE-2026-21589 Exposing Files in Jira and Confluence
Atlassian has patched CVE-2026-21589, a CVSS 9.3 path traversal vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to read files across eight products including Bitbucket, Confluence, Jira Software, Jira Service Management, Bamboo, Crowd, Crucible and Fisheye in Data Center editions. The flaw accepts manipulated paths where traversal sequences appear adjacent to forward slashes, backslashes or double colons, including URL-encoded variants. Attackers must know the exact file name and path because the vulnerability does not permit directory listing and is restricted to the web application root directory of each product. Configuration files located in predictable locations remain accessible to attackers familiar with the products. Patches have been released in specific versions such as Bitbucket 10.5.1, Confluence 10.2.19, Jira Software and Jira Service Management 11.3.12, Bamboo 12.1.12, Crowd 7.2.4 and Crucible and Fisheye 4.9.15. Atlassian found no evidence of exploitation in its cloud products, though the advisory does not address on-premises customer installations.
Apache Struts CVE-2026-104711 Enables Remote Code Execution via Legacy RESTful Mapper
Apache Struts has patched four vulnerabilities, one of which permits unauthenticated remote code execution through an OGNL injection flaw. The issue, tracked as CVE-2026-104711, only affects applications that still rely on the legacy RESTful mapper; modern configurations using the default mapper, restful2, or the official Struts REST plugin remain unaffected. Exploitation occurs when the legacy mapper extracts action names and parameters directly from the URL, allowing attackers to inject malicious OGNL expressions. Vulnerable releases span 2.0.0–2.3.37, 2.5.0–2.5.33, 6.0.0–6.11.0, and 7.0.0–7.3.0, with fixes available in 6.12.0 and 7.4.0. The remaining three flaws impact availability or cause cross-request data leakage but do not lead to code execution, and only one received an “important” severity rating.
Automated Pentesting and BAS: How AI Systems Like XBOW Outpace Human Researchers in Vulnerability Discovery
The article explores how automated penetration testing and Breach and Attack Simulation tools have evolved to provide continuous validation of security controls beyond annual manual pentests. It explains the distinction between BAS, which tests individual attack techniques against security tools using frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK, and autopentest solutions that build complete attack paths to critical assets. Russian vendor Positive Technologies released PT Dephaze 3.0 in October 2025, incorporating machine learning for controlled internal pentesting and earning the National Runet Award. Globally, AI-driven systems demonstrated superior performance, with XBOW topping HackerOne rankings by discovering over 1,000 vulnerabilities including 54 critical ones in just 90 days. Google’s Big Sleep project, combining DeepMind and Project Zero, identified and helped patch CVE-2025-6965 in SQLite before widespread exploitation. These developments underscore the need to integrate automated validation into vulnerability management processes under the emerging CTEM framework.
Critical SSRF Vulnerability Affects SonicWall SMA1000 Series Remote Access Appliances
SonicWall has disclosed four vulnerabilities in its SMA1000 series remote access products, with one rated critical. The most severe issue, CVE-2026-102255, is a server-side request forgery flaw in the WorkPlace interface that allows unauthenticated attackers to abuse the appliance as a forward proxy and reach internal functions. The vulnerability received the maximum CVSSv3.0 base score of 10.0. Two additional flaws, CVE-2026-102256 and CVE-2026-102257, enable authenticated OS command injection and unauthenticated path traversal via crafted archives, respectively. No exploitation has been observed in the wild at the time of disclosure. SonicWall has released updates to address all issues.
