GitLab and Cisco Firewall auth bypasses under active attack — patch now.

THE THREE

  1. #1 · CVE-2026-85706

    Gitlab

    KEV

    What: Any unauthenticated attacker on the internet can read arbitrary files from your GitLab server — including source code, secrets, and credentials — without logging in. With a 93% exploit probability and CVSS 10.0, this is as dangerous as it gets for dev teams hosting code internally or in the cloud.

    Why it moved: Actively exploited · Widely deployed · Critical severity · 93% exploit odds

    Who is exploiting: Actively-exploited (CISA KEV)

    Action · Update GitLab CE/EE to the latest patched version immediately.

  2. #2 · CVE-2026-20079

    Cisco

    KEV

    What: Attackers can completely bypass authentication on Cisco Firewall Management Center and Security Cloud Control, potentially taking over your firewall policy and opening your network to intrusion. This is a CVSS 10.0 flaw being actively exploited against a product that sits at the heart of many organizations' security perimeter.

    Why it moved: Actively exploited · Widely deployed · Critical severity · 88% exploit odds

    Who is exploiting: Actively-exploited (CISA KEV)

    Action · Apply Cisco's patch for FMC/SCC and verify no unauthorized admin sessions exist.

  3. #3 · CVE-2026-81578

    Papercut

    KEV

    What: PaperCut NG/MF — common in schools, universities, and offices — lets an unauthenticated remote attacker change system configurations, and this flaw chains with CVE-2026-82078 for full server compromise. Ransomware groups have historically targeted PaperCut heavily.

    Why it moved: Actively exploited · Widely deployed · Critical severity · 85% exploit odds

    Who is exploiting: Actively-exploited (CISA KEV)

    Action · Patch PaperCut NG/MF now and block external access to the admin web interface.
