Over the past months, I’ve noticed a shift in customer conversations. Coverage, prioritization, emerging threats — those questions have given way to exposed MCP servers, unmanaged AI chatbots, and risks that don’t show up as CVEs. Mythos comes up in every other call. The calculus changed. AI now writes a quarter of production code, with twice as many vulnerabilities. The exploitation window collapsed from days to hours.

CVE-2026-27577 is a code injection flaw in n8n, an open-source workflow automation platform, that lets an authenticated user with permission to create or modify workflows run system commands on the host through crafted workflow expressions. The vulnerability carries a CVSS base score of 9.4 (Critical). Exploitation requires authentication, but only the level of access needed to build or edit a workflow, which is a routine privilege for many users of the platform.

CVE-2026-53721 is a route-rule middleware bypass in Nuxt, the open-source web development framework for Vue.js. It stems from a case-sensitivity mismatch between vue-router and the framework’s routeRules matcher, which lets an attacker reach a protected route by varying the casing of the request path. The vulnerability carries a CVSS v4.0 base score of 8.8 (High). Exploitation is pre-authentication and requires no user interaction.

CVE-2026-0257 is an authentication bypass vulnerability in the GlobalProtect portal and gateway of Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS software that lets a remote attacker forge an authentication override cookie and establish an unauthorized VPN connection. The vulnerability carries a CVSS base score of 7.8 (High). It is tracked under CWE-565, reliance on cookies without validation and integrity checking. Exploitation is unauthenticated and requires no user interaction.

CVE-2026-48172 is an incorrect privilege assignment flaw in the LiteSpeed User-End cPanel Plugin that allows any authenticated cPanel user to execute arbitrary scripts as root. The bug sits in the plugin's lsws.redisAble function, which can be invoked through the standard cPanel JSON API to run code with elevated privileges instead of the calling user's own. The vulnerability carries a CVSS v4.0 base score of 10.0 (Critical).

CVE-2026-9082 is an unauthenticated SQL injection vulnerability in Drupal core's database abstraction API, in the path that handles EntityQuery conditions against PostgreSQL backends. User-controllable PHP array keys reach SQL placeholder construction without sanitization, letting a remote attacker inject arbitrary SQL by sending crafted HTTP requests to a vulnerable site. The vulnerability carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 6.5 (Medium) per NVD.

CVE-2026-20182 is an authentication bypass vulnerability in Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN Controller (formerly vSmart) and Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN Manager (formerly vManage). The flaw sits in the peering authentication path of the vdaemon service running over DTLS on UDP port 12346, the same control-plane service involved in CVE-2026-20127 earlier in 2026. It is not a patch bypass of that earlier issue, but a separate weakness in the device-type handling of the control connection handshake.

CVE-2026-42945, nicknamed "NGINX Rift", is a heap buffer overflow in the ngx_http_rewrite_module component of NGINX. It has sat in the project's source code since 2008. F5 disclosed the flaw on May 13, 2026, after responsible disclosure by researchers at depthfirst, who reported finding it through an autonomous code scanning system.

-Recent breaches show AI risk is already present in many environments, often entering through suppliers, data flows, and integrations. But awareness alone is not enough. CISOs and security leaders must actively manage the expanded attack surface AI creates. In this session, experts from CyCognito and Panorays help you understand how to identify AI relationships, assess the risks they pose, and remediate vulnerabilities before they lead to an incident. You’ll learn.

Your attack surface has grown, it's now in cloud infrastructure and across subsidiaries and unknown, unmanaged assets are everywhere. How are you finding these? Attackers look for, find and attack these unknown assets and when there are externally exposed risks, sensitive data and critical systems are put in danger. Read now, External Exposure & Attack Surface Management For Dummies.

With the ever-growing volume of cybersecurity alerts and attacks bombarding security teams, more CISOs are taking a hard look at External Attack Surface Management (EASM) platforms to better understand how adversaries get into systems and how to keep them out. It's not surprising that EASM products have captured the industry's attention, as many organizations are seeing growth of their attack surfaces' growth outpace their detection and remediation abilities. Some of the driving causes: digital transformation, the cloud, third-party dependencies, subsidiary sprawl, and more.

Your pen testing team is working hard, but they are facing an operational challenge due to the large number of assets they need to test and the time required to complete each test. As the fundamental approach to penetration testing has not changed much since the first test over 50 years ago, it's worth exploring whether the tool is still sufficient for securing today's IT environment.

CyCognito solves one of the most fundamental business problems in cybersecurity: seeing how attackers view your organization, where they are most likely to break in, what systems and assets are at risk and how you can eliminate the exposure.
Founded by national intelligence agency veterans, CyCognito has a deep understanding of how attackers exploit blind spots and a path of least resistance. Based in Palo Alto, CyCognito serves a number of large enterprises and Fortune 500 organizations, including Colgate-Palmolive, Tesco and many others.
Automated external attack surface management and continuous testing reduces your overall risk:
- Discovery: Proactively uncover exposed external assets — without input or configuration — using attacker reconnaissance approaches.
- Contextualization: Empower your team to know what an asset does, where it’s located, what other assets it connects to, and how attractive it is from that attacker perspective.
- Active Security Testing: Launch security testing across your full inventory of external assets, enabling a new level of visibility into risk and the steps needed to reduce it.
- Prioritization: Automate risk prioritization for external assets to focus your security team’s attention and energy on the 10 to 50 most critical exploited assets that matter the most.
- Remediation Acceleration: Quickly repair exploitable assets and reduce validation time from months to hours to swiftly prevent data breaches.
Discover, test and prioritize all of your web assets and applications.
