Cisco Firewall, Progress LoadMaster, and Apache Tomcat Under Active Attack

THE THREE

  1. #1 · CVE-2026-20079

    Cisco

    KEV

    What: If your organization uses Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center, an attacker with no credentials whatsoever can reach it over the internet, bypass login, and gain root control of the device — effectively owning your network perimeter. This is a perfect CVSS 10 and is already being actively exploited.

    Why it moved: Actively exploited · Widely deployed · Critical severity · 76% exploit odds

    Who is exploiting: Actively-exploited (CISA KEV)

    Action · Patch Cisco FMC to the latest fixed release immediately.

  2. #2 · CVE-2026-33824

    Microsoft

    KEV

    What: A flaw in Microsoft's IKE (VPN/IPsec) service allows remote code execution with no user interaction required, putting any Windows system running IKE-based VPN services at risk of full takeover. This is actively exploited with 73% exploit odds.

    Why it moved: Actively exploited · Everyone runs this · Critical severity · 73% exploit odds

    Who is exploiting: Actively-exploited (CISA KEV)

    Action · Apply the Microsoft patch for CVE-2026-33824 across all Windows systems now.

  3. #3 · CVE-2026-8037

    Progress

    KEV

    What: Progress LoadMaster — a widely used load balancer — has a command injection flaw that any unauthenticated attacker can exploit to run arbitrary commands on the appliance; exploit probability is essentially 100% and it is actively being used in the wild. Compromise of a load balancer can expose your entire internal application infrastructure.

    Why it moved: Actively exploited · Widely deployed · Critical severity · 100% exploit odds

    Who is exploiting: Actively-exploited (CISA KEV)

    Action · Update Progress LoadMaster to the patched version without delay.
