TODAY'S CALL
Two high-severity bugs headline a 5-patch Tuesday. A Chrome sandbox escape (CVE-2026-11697, CVSS 9.6) lets attackers run code on the underlying OS with nothing more than a page visit, and a VPN authentication bypass (CVE-2026-50751, CVSS 9.3) hands unauthenticated attackers a full tunnel into your network. Neither is exploited in the wild yet, but both are ugly enough that you shouldn't wait to find out.

TOP THREAT TODAY
|
|
A heap overflow in Perl's DBI module triggers when preparsing SQL statements that use more than 9 bind parameters. An attacker who can influence SQL input to a Perl application could potentially crash it or execute code. Exploitation requires the app to accept externally controlled SQL with many binders, which limits the attack surface somewhat.
Who's affected: Anyone running Perl applications that use DBI (versions before 1.648), especially on Azure Linux 3.0 with perl-DBI 1.643-3.
| |
Patch this week.
Update perl-DBI to version 1.648 or later via your package manager.

CVE-2026-49975
CVSS 7.5
|
HIGH
|
A denial-of-service bug in Apache HTTP Server's mod_http2 module lets a remote attacker knock your web server offline by sending crafted HTTP/2 requests. No authentication is needed. If you expose httpd with HTTP/2 enabled, you're in the blast radius.
Affects: Anyone running Apache httpd with mod_http2 enabled, particularly Azure Linux 3.0 hosts running httpd 2.4.67-1.
| |
Patch within 24 hours if internet-facing or otherwise exposed.
Update httpd to the patched version via `tdnf update httpd` on Azure Linux, or apply the latest Apache release from your distro's repos. If you can't patch immediately, disable mod_http2 as a temporary workaround.

CVE-2026-50751
CVSS 9.3

CRITICAL
|
An authentication bypass in Remote Access and Mobile Access VPN using the deprecated IKEv1 key exchange lets an unauthenticated remote attacker establish a full VPN session without a valid password. That means anyone on the internet can tunnel into your network if the affected VPN endpoint is reachable. This is about as bad as VPN bugs get.
Affects: Anyone running a VPN gateway that supports Remote Access or Mobile Access with IKEv1 key exchange. The vendor isn't named explicitly, but the description strongly matches Check Point Security Gateway products.
| |
Patch immediately for internet-facing systems.
Apply the vendor's patch or hotfix for this CVE immediately. If no patch is available yet, disable IKEv1 on your VPN gateway and switch to IKEv2. Audit VPN logs for any unexpected sessions.

HIGH
|
A type confusion bug in the USCiLab Cereal C++ serialization library lets an attacker corrupt shared pointer types during deserialization. If your application deserializes untrusted Cereal archives, an attacker could crash it or potentially execute code. Exploitation requires the app to process attacker-controlled serialized data, which narrows the risk.
Affects: Developers and operators running C++ applications that use the Cereal serialization library (version 1.3.2 or earlier), including Azure Linux 3.0 hosts with cereal 1.3.2-1 installed.
| |
Monitor and patch.
Update the cereal package to a fixed version when available. In the meantime, ensure your applications never deserialize Cereal archives from untrusted sources.

CVE-2026-11697
CVSS 9.6
|
CRITICAL
|
A sandbox escape in Google Chrome caused by insufficient input validation in the browser UI. An attacker can exploit this by luring a user to a crafted web page, potentially breaking out of Chrome's sandbox and running code on the underlying system. No special privileges needed, just a click.
Affects: Anyone running Google Chrome or Chromium-based browsers (Edge, Brave, etc.) on versions prior to 149.0.7827.103.
| |
Patch immediately for internet-facing systems.
Update Chrome to version 149.0.7827.103 or later. For managed fleets, push the update through your browser management tool today.

Cisco SD-WAN Manager zero-day exploited in the wild, no patch available (CVE-2026-20245)
Cisco confirmed CVE-2026-20245, a command injection in Catalyst SD-WAN Manager's CLI, is exploited in the wild. Authenticated local attackers with netadmin privileges can run commands as root. There's no patch yet. Cisco says to upgrade to versions that fix CVE-2026-20182 as a partial mitigation.

Windows Netlogon RCE (CVE-2026-41089) now exploited in attacks
Attackers are exploiting CVE-2026-41089, a CVSS 9.8 stack-based buffer overflow in Windows Netlogon that gives unauthenticated RCE on every supported Windows Server version. No user interaction required. If you run Windows Server and haven't applied June patches yet, this is your reason to stop reading and start patching.

Windows Update driver policy cache bug silently overrides Intune settings
A Windows Update caching bug has been quietly ignoring your Intune driver-block policies, pushing driver updates you explicitly blocked. Admins started noticing in late May: printers dying, VPN clients breaking, random BSODs from unexpected driver installs. Audit your driver update policies now and check for unauthorized driver changes on managed endpoints.
