CISA Adds Four Known Exploited Vulnerabilities to Catalog Critical CISA Advisory
2026-10-14 CISA Advisory

CISA Adds Four Known Exploited Vulnerabilities to Catalog

CISA has added four new vulnerabilities to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) Catalog , based on evidence of active exploitation. CVE-2026-0322 Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS Code Injection Vulnerability CVE-2026-76519 Cisco Secure Email Gateway Relative Path Traversal Vulnerability CVE-2026-105133 Ahsay AhsayCBS Improper Authentication Vulnerability CVE-2026-105134 Ahsay AhsayCBS Command Injection Vulnerability These types of vulnerabilities are a frequent attack vector for malicious cyber actors and pose significant risks to the federal enterprise. Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 26-04: Prioritizing Security Updates Based on Risk establishes vulnerability management requirements for Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) agencies. BOD 26-04 reinforces the importance of the KEV Catalog and requires federal agencies to prioritize rapid remediation of high-risk vulnerabilities, specifically those identified by Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) listed in CISA’s KEV Catalog on publicly exposed assets that grant total control of the asset post-exploitation, while deferring action for lower-risk vulnerabilities. BOD 26-04 further establishes basic expectations for when agencies must check whether threat actors compromised the system before the patch was applied. While BOD 26-04 applies only to FCEB agencies, CISA encourages all organizations to adopt risk-based vulnerability management and prioritize remediation of KEV Catalog vulnerabilities . CISA will continue to add vulnerabilities to the catalog that meet the specified criteria . Aware of an exploited vulnerability not currently listed in the KEV Catalog? Submit it for potential addition through CISA’s KEV Nomination Form . Potential KEV additions must have a CVE ID, evidence of exploitation, and clear mitigation guidance.

Fix: Review CISA guidance and apply vendor security updates immediately.

CISA Urges Patching Newly Exploited Vulnerability in Ivanti Connect Secure

CISA is aware of Ivanti’s disclosure of a newly exploited vulnerability, CVE-2026-104935 , affecting Ivanti Connect Secure versions 25.1.1.1 and prior, 25.1.2.2 and prior, and 22.8R2.4 and prior. CISA is aware of cyber threat actors exploiting this zero-day authentication bypass vulnerability, which allows remote, unauthenticated execution of arbitrary commands, to conduct credential theft and data exfiltration. CISA added CVE-2026-104935 to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) Catalog on Oct. 13, 2026. CISA urges organizations with affected Ivanti Connect Secure appliances and deployments to immediately update to the latest version, as outlined in Ivanti’s Security Advisory Ivanti Connect Secure (CVE-2026-104935) . Organizations should also review the Ivanti Connect Secure 25.x Upgrade and Migration Compatibility Guide for detailed patching guidance for hardware and virtual appliance deployments. Ivanti Connect Secure version 22.8 reaches end of life on Jan. 31, 2027. Organizations seeking to determine whether they were compromised will need to conduct network and memory forensics to identify evidence of exploitation. Note: Ivanti’s Integrity Checker Tool may not detect evidence of exploitation of CVE-2026-104935 because threat actor commands execute in memory. If your organization suspects a compromise, CISA recommends implementing the following actions from Ivanti Connect Secure Recovery Procedures : Create a backup of the appliance configuration. Review Ivanti’s How to Backup & Restore the Binary Configuration Using Archiving Server for more information. Conduct a factory reset and upgrade the appliance to the latest version. For cloud and virtual systems, rebuild the virtual instance and upgrade to the latest version. Restore the appliance configuration from the backup created in step 1. Reset passwords for all accounts, including domain, administrator, and local accounts. Revoke and reissue stored certificates; reset stored API keys and license server credentials. CISA urges organizations to review the Ivanti security advisory and guide noted above and apply necessary updates. CISA also recommends reviewing the Volexity blog, A Series of Unauthenticated Events: Chained Exploitation of Ivanti Connect Secure Zero-Days .
