The Qualys Threat Research Unit (TRU) has revealed two significant vulnerabilities in OpenSSH, impacting both client and server components. The first, CVE-2025-26465, is a machine-in-the-middle (MitM) attack that targets OpenSSH clients when the VerifyHostKeyDNS option is enabled. The second, CVE-2025-26466, involves a pre-authentication denial-of-service (DoS) attack affecting both client and server systems by exhausting resources. These vulnerabilities expose systems to potential interception of communications and resource exhaustion, potentially crippling SSH servers.
The MitM vulnerability, CVE-2025-26465, allows attackers to impersonate a server, bypassing client identity checks even if VerifyHostKeyDNS is set to "yes" or "ask". This flaw was introduced in December 2014 and affects OpenSSH versions 6.8p1 through 9.9p1. The DoS vulnerability, CVE-2025-26466, enables attackers to consume excessive memory and CPU resources, impacting versions 9.5p1 through 9.9p1. While mitigations exist, such as LoginGraceTime and MaxStartups, immediate patching is strongly advised. OpenSSH version 9.9p2 addresses these vulnerabilities, urging administrators to upgrade affected systems promptly.

Ivanti has released critical security updates for Connect Secure (ICS), Policy Secure (IPS), and Secure Access Client (ISAC) to address multiple vulnerabilities. These include three critical severity problems that could allow remote code execution (RCE), posing a significant risk. The updates aim to patch flaws such as external control of a file name (CVE-2024-38657) and a stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-2025-22467), which can be exploited by authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code and compromise system integrity.
The specific vulnerabilities addressed include CVE-2024-38657, which allows remote authenticated attackers with admin privileges to write arbitrary files, and CVE-2025-22467, a stack-based buffer overflow that enables remote code execution. Also patched is CVE-2024-10644 which is a code injection vulnerability, and CVE-2024-47908, an operating system command injection flaw in the admin web console of Ivanti CSA. Users are urged to update to the latest versions, Ivanti Connect Secure 22.7R2.6, Ivanti Policy Secure 22.7R1.3, and Ivanti CSA 5.0.5, as soon as possible to mitigate potential exploitation. While Ivanti is not aware of active exploitation, it's imperative to apply the patches due to the history of Ivanti appliances being weaponized.

Progress Software has released patches to address multiple high-severity vulnerabilities in its LoadMaster software. These flaws could allow remote, authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary system commands on affected systems. The vulnerabilities stem from improper input validation, where attackers who gain access to the management interface can inject malicious commands via crafted HTTP requests.
The affected software includes LoadMaster versions from 7.2.48.12 and prior, 7.2.49.0 to 7.2.54.12 (inclusive), and 7.2.55.0 to 7.2.60.1 (inclusive), as well as Multi-Tenant LoadMaster version 7.1.35.12 and prior. Progress Software has implemented input sanitization to mitigate these vulnerabilities, preventing arbitrary system commands from being executed. Users are advised to update to the latest patched versions to ensure the security of their systems.

Progress Software has released patches for multiple high-severity vulnerabilities affecting its LoadMaster software. The vulnerabilities, identified as CVE-2024-56131, CVE-2024-56132, CVE-2024-56133, CVE-2024-56134, and CVE-2024-56135, could be exploited by remote malicious actors to execute arbitrary system commands or download any file from the system. The flaws stem from improper input validation and affect various LoadMaster versions, including the Multi-Tenant edition.
These vulnerabilities could allow authenticated attackers with access to the LoadMaster management interface to inject malicious commands via crafted HTTP requests. Specifically, successful exploitation could enable remote actors to execute arbitrary system commands after gaining access and authenticating to the management interface. Progress Software has addressed these issues by implementing input sanitization to prevent the execution of arbitrary system commands. While there are no reported cases of these vulnerabilities being exploited, users are strongly urged to apply the latest patches for optimal protection.

Multiple critical vulnerabilities have been identified in several Apache software products, posing significant risks to users. The Cyber Security Agency of Singapore has issued alerts regarding these flaws, urging immediate updates. CVE-2024-43441 affects Apache HugeGraph-Server, allowing for authentication bypass, potentially granting unauthorized access to systems. Another critical issue, CVE-2024-45387, has been discovered in Apache Traffic Control and is a SQL injection vulnerability that can be exploited by privileged users to execute arbitrary SQL commands, risking data manipulation or exfiltration.
Apache MINA is also affected by CVE-2024-52046 which allows remote code execution through deserialization flaws. It is crucial that users apply security patches promptly. For Apache MINA, additional configuration is required to restrict class deserialization further mitigating the risk. Furthermore, a high-risk vulnerability, CVE-2024-56512, has been found in Apache NiFi, a data processing and distribution system, which can expose sensitive information to unauthorized users, especially if using component-based authorization policies. A patch for NiFi has been issued in version 2.1.0, users should upgrade immediately.
