CISA Adds Adobe Commerce and WSO2 Vulnerabilities to Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog
The US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has added two vulnerabilities to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, citing confirmed exploitation in the wild.
CVE-2026-71362 was discovered in Adobe Commerce and the open-source Magento platform used for building and operating e-commerce sites. The flaw stems from an authorization bypass that allows attackers to escalate privileges. Adobe published a security advisory on August 11, 2026, urging customers to apply updates within 30 days.
The second vulnerability, CVE-2026-5430, affects several WSO2 products including WSO2 API Manager, WSO2 API Control Plane, WSO2 Traffic Manager, and WSO2 Universal Gateway. It enables bypass of JWT authentication, permitting attackers to hijack administrator accounts, upload arbitrary files, and execute remote code. WSO2 released an advisory on May 3, 2026, to alert users.
Following the addition to the KEV list on September 24, 2026, CISA directed US federal agencies to complete remediation by September 27, 2026. Required actions include applying patches, verifying systems for signs of compromise, and implementing additional mitigations where necessary.

Blackbox Asset Management: Discovering and Identifying IT Infrastructure Without Direct Access
Security Vision expert Fedor Bokov explains how organizations can manage IT assets in blackbox mode when customers refuse to provide credentials or internal documentation. The approach begins with network scanning using tools such as nmap and masscan to detect live hosts and open ports across external and internal perimeters. Identification relies on banner grabbing, HTTP header analysis, favicon inspection, HTML structure, and service fingerprinting to determine exact software versions and operating systems. Examples include extracting Ubuntu 22.04 LTS details from an OpenSSH banner and identifying Checkpoint Gaia from specific HTTP responses on port 443. Further analysis of ports like 1433 and 443 reveals Microsoft SQL Server 2017, nginx 1.28.0, PHP 8.2.29, and Bitrix-Site-Manager instances. The methodology concludes with continuous monitoring cycles that track version changes, new services, and configuration deviations to prioritize vulnerability remediation without traditional inventory access.
Check Point Patches Critical Zero-Day CVE-2026-93616 Enabling Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution on Management Servers
Check Point has addressed a critical zero-day vulnerability tracked as CVE-2026-93616 with a CVSS score of 9.8 that allowed remote unauthenticated attackers to upload and execute arbitrary scripts on management servers. The flaw combined directory traversal with insecure file handling, enabling attackers to escape the intended directory and place scripts in executable locations. Affected products include Security Management Server, Multi-Domain Security Management Server, Log Server, Multi-Domain Log Server, and SmartEvent. Targeted attacks were observed starting July 23 before public disclosure, though exploitation remained limited. Vulnerable versions span multiple R82, R81, and R80 releases, with fixes now available through specific hotfixes and Jumbo Takes. Administrators are advised to apply patches immediately, place management servers behind a Security Gateway, and restrict TCP port 19009 access.
