A newly disclosed Linux kernel vulnerability called Bad Epoll lets an ordinary user with no special privileges take full control of a machine as root, and it affects Linux desktops, servers, and Android. Tracked as CVE-2026-46242, the flaw is a use-after-free in epoll, a core Linux feature for watching many files or connections at once that programs and browsers rely on and cannot simply turn off. Two parts of the kernel try to free the same object at once, letting an attacker corrupt kernel memory and climb to root. It is a race-condition bug, harder to exploit than recent deterministic Linux flaws, but a working exploit exists and a fix is available.
Researchers at runZero disclosed seven vulnerabilities in FatFs, a tiny filesystem library that lets devices read FAT and exFAT media like USB drives and SD cards and that is bundled into the firmware of countless embedded and industrial products. The most serious, CVE-2026-6682, is an integer overflow when mounting a FAT32 volume that can lead to memory corruption and code execution, and several bugs are reachable through firmware update flows, not just physical media. The hard part is patching: FatFs is maintained by a single developer who did not respond to the researchers, so most of the memory-corruption flaws have no upstream fix and downstream vendors may never learn they are affected.
CISA has added a SharePoint remote code execution flaw to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog after confirming active exploitation, months after Microsoft rated it less likely to be attacked. The bug (CVE-2026-45659, CVSS 8.8) comes from unsafe deserialization of untrusted data and lets an authenticated attacker with only Site Member permissions run code on a SharePoint server over the network, with low complexity and no user interaction. Microsoft patched it in May for SharePoint Server Subscription Edition, 2019, and Enterprise 2016. On-premises SharePoint is a repeated target because it holds sensitive data and is often internet-facing, and it has a long history of weaponized code execution flaws.
Adobe has released patches for seven critical, top-rated code execution vulnerabilities in its ColdFusion web application platform and Campaign Classic marketing tool. Six of the flaws affect ColdFusion 2025 and 2023 and stem from unrestricted file uploads, improper input validation, and path traversal, each allowing arbitrary code execution; the seventh, in Campaign Classic, is an authorization flaw with the same impact on on-premises installations. All can be exploited in low-complexity attacks without user interaction. Adobe says it is not aware of any active exploitation but assigned its highest deployment priority, urging admins to patch quickly, since ColdFusion has repeatedly been targeted by attackers and ransomware crews.
Researchers at Synacktiv disclosed an unpatched flaw in Argo CD, the popular GitOps tool for deploying to Kubernetes, that can lead to full cluster takeover. The problem is in repo-server, the component that turns Git repository files into Kubernetes manifests: its internal gRPC service requires no authentication, so anyone who can reach it on the cluster network can send a crafted request and run commands. Synacktiv reported it about eighteen months ago, but there is still no fix and no CVE, so it went public to warn users. With no patch, the practical defense is network isolation using Kubernetes network policies.
Researchers at Cato AI Labs detailed two flaws, dubbed DuneSlide, in the AI code editor Cursor that let a prompt-injection attack break out of the sandbox Cursor uses to contain the commands its agent runs. The attacker never types anything: they plant instructions in content the agent reads on the user's behalf, such as a connected MCP service or a web page. One flaw abuses a working-directory setting to get an attacker path added to the allowed-write list, letting injected commands overwrite the sandbox helper itself and then run with no sandbox. Both are rated 9.8 and are fixed in Cursor 3.0; every earlier version is affected, so users should update.
A critical flaw in Progress Kemp LoadMaster lets an unauthenticated attacker run commands as root on the appliance by sending a crafted request to its API. Rated 9.8, the bug (CVE-2026-8037) sits in a function meant to sanitize input before it reaches a shell command, and LoadMaster's position as an edge load balancer and application delivery controller makes a pre-authentication flaw especially dangerous, since it can turn a protective choke point into a direct foothold. Progress patched it in early June, and researchers at watchTowr published a full technical write-up with a working proof-of-concept on June 29. No exploitation has been reported yet, but Progress also makes MOVEit, a past mass-exploitation target.
CISA has updated its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog to warn that ransomware gangs are now exploiting BlueHammer, a Microsoft Defender privilege-escalation flaw. The bug (CVE-2026-33825) lets a local attacker who already has a foothold escalate to SYSTEM by abusing Defender's file-remediation logic, giving them access to password hashes and the control needed to disable defenses and prepare systems for encryption. It was leaked with proof-of-concept code by a researcher in early April as a protest over Microsoft's disclosure process, exploited as a zero-day, then patched on April 14. It cannot be used for remote compromise on its own, but it strengthens attackers after initial access.
Citrix has released fixes for six vulnerabilities in NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway, including a high-severity memory-disclosure flaw that researchers place in the same class as the 2023 CitrixBleed bug. That flaw (CVE-2026-8451, rated 8.8) leaks small amounts of memory through malformed SAML requests and shares a root cause with an earlier NetScaler bug that was exploited within days of disclosure. The bulletin also covers an unauthenticated arbitrary file read and several denial-of-service issues, with CVSS scores from 6.9 to 8.8. No exploitation has been reported yet, but NetScaler appliances have drawn more than 20 entries on CISA's exploited-vulnerabilities list in three years, several used in ransomware.
Attackers have begun exploiting a critical flaw in Oracle E-Business Suite, the financial and operations platform used by large enterprises, threat intelligence firm Defused reports. The bug (CVE-2026-46817), rated 9.8, sits in the File Transmission component of Oracle Payments and lets an unauthenticated attacker with HTTP access take over the system through a low-complexity attack. Oracle patched it in its May 2026 update, but exploitation began over the weekend despite no public proof-of-concept existing, meaning attackers built their own. Observed payloads attempt to read sensitive system files. Shadowserver tracks more than 450 EBS instances exposed online, many in North America and Asia, with unknown numbers still unpatched.
