CISA Adds MikroTik RouterOS Flaws CVE-2026-67277 and CVE-2026-86060 to Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog
The US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency has added two actively exploited vulnerabilities in MikroTik RouterOS to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog. CVE-2026-86060 stems from improper sanitization of command argument delimiters and can lead to privilege escalation after an attacker gains access to the SSH login helper and alters trusted policy masks. CVE-2026-67277 involves missing authentication checks in critical RouterOS functions, allowing connections before authentication completes and potentially leaking kernel memory or causing denial-of-service conditions. CISA directed US federal agencies to apply mitigations by September 13 and specifically investigate any signs of compromise related to CVE-2026-86060. The agency noted that the flaws carry broader exploitation risk and urged all organizations using affected MikroTik products to take immediate action.
