ISC published 14 BIND 9 security advisories on 16 September 2026, seven rated High severity by ISC: CVE-2026-80274, CVE-2026-76163, CVE-2026-19666 (use-after-free in query_addnoqnameproof() via the DNS64 filter64 path; ISC CVSS 7.5, CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H), CVE-2026-81563, CVE-2026-77692 (unauthenticated remote crash of named via a crafted DNS-over-HTTPS request with an invalid SIG(0) record followed by a premature connection close; ISC CVSS 7.5), CVE-2026-19667 and CVE-2026-81736. ISC describes all seven High-severity issues as denial-of-service. Triggers per ISC include a mismatched NOQNAME proof, a QTYPE TKEY query when named.conf has no global options block, a specifically malformed authoritative answer on DNS64 resolvers, SVCB/HTTPS AliasMode records, crafted DoH requests and a negative answer of exactly 65536 bytes. The other seven advisories are rated Medium by ISC and cover a resolver crash, cache poisoning, zone-data injection and resource exhaustion. ISC says it is not aware of any active exploits. Fixed releases per ISC: BIND 9.20.29 and 9.21.26 (9.20.29-S1 for the Supported Preview Edition). Source: ISC KB advisories. Correction (23 Oct 2026): re-checked against ISC's own advisories and removed a third-party news source; the card now rests on ISC alone; the set is 14 advisories, not 14 denial-of-service flaws (ISC rates seven Medium issues that include cache poisoning and zone-data injection), and the affected-version line now uses ISC's ranges.
Micah Lee (16 September 2026; dataset from DDoSecrets / stegan0gram field extraction, also covered by 404 Media and Wired) analyses firmware from an in-use Flock Safety automatic licence-plate reader (ALPR) camera. The unit ran a modified Android 8.1 build dated 5 June 2025 on Linux 3.18.71 — far past vendor/Google support — and ships multiple Flock apps. Lee documents a hard-coded x-api-key in an app used to request device credentials from hpnotiq.flocksafety.com (MAC-address keyed), with returned credentials stored in plaintext and usable to mint bearer tokens via device-login.flocksafety.com. Lee lists older public Android/kernel CVEs the patch level likely predates but does not claim live exploitation tests on this hardware. Flock gave a statement to 404 Media/Wired (per Lee). No CVE assigned in the write-up. Primary: Micah Lee analysis; context: DDoSecrets dataset.

The CVE record (published 15 September 2026, 16:41 UTC; 16 September, 12:41 am Perth) covers CVE-2026-89026 in Issabel Framework (web UI for Issabel PBX / Asterisk). Before commit b97dbaf0b71c1c36f841e672b664afbeb02773bd the pbxapi index.php embeds a hard-coded HS256 JWT signing key identical on every install (CWE-321). Unauthenticated attackers forge bearer tokens and call /pbxapi/manager/originate with the System application parameter so Asterisk runs arbitrary OS commands as the Asterisk user. The CVE record rates it CVSS 4.0 9.3 (CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N) and CVSS 3.1 9.8. Patch (1 August 2026) replaces the hard-coded key with a key from /etc/issabel.conf. Shadowserver first observed exploitation on 9 September 2026; scale/actors not detailed. Apply the patched framework commit or later; rotate any JWT material that relied on the shared key. Primary: CVE record; wire: The Hacker News 16 Sep 2026. Correction (25 Oct 2026): the card date has moved from 15 to 16 September 2026, the Perth date of the CVE record's publication (15 September, 16:41 UTC; 16 September, 12:41 am Perth).

Cisco PSIRT advisory cisco-sa-ISE-ABP-VNSW7Tn5 (first published 16 September 2026 16:00 GMT) covers CVE-2026-76460, a maximum-severity authentication bypass in an API of Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) and Cisco ISE Passive Identity Connector (ISE-PIC), regardless of configuration. Insufficient authentication control on an API endpoint lets an unauthenticated remote attacker send a crafted request and bypass the web-based management interface to gain unauthorised device access; Cisco notes successful exploitation may yield root command execution and that on-box evidence can be removed afterward. Cisco CVSS 3.1 base 10.0 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H); CWE-648; Bug CSCww39530. No workarounds; temporary mitigation: infrastructure ACLs restricting management/control-plane traffic to the device. Fixed software: ISE/ISE-PIC 3.5 Patch 4, 3.4 Patch 7, 3.3 Patch 12, 3.2 Patch 11, 3.1 Patch 12. Cisco PSIRT is aware of active exploitation; CISA added CVE-2026-76460 to KEV on 16 September 2026 (same alert also added Acronis CVE-2026-87886). Same-day Cisco ISE/ISE-PIC criticals including CVE-2026-76423 are noted as related context, not separate desk cards — only 76460 has claimed in-the-wild use in the PSIRT advisory.

Forever Security (16 September 2026; also The Hacker News) documents BragJack: a research technique where a malicious Chromium extension with common page-modify and declarativeNetRequest permissions injects into the trusted origin the browser AI "body" listens to, then commands the built-in assistant. Affected demos: Gemini Live in Chrome (CVE-2026-0628, CVSS 8.8 per CISA score cited by researchers; fixed in Chrome 143.0.7499.192, Jan 2026), Microsoft Edge (CVE-2026-55945, CVSS 4.2; fixed in Edge 150.0.4078.48, 2 Jul 2026), Perplexity Comet, Opera Neon, and Claude in Chrome (latter three without CVE; vendor bounty acknowledgements claimed). Impacts vary by product (agent hijack, local file read, camera/mic on Chrome). Researcher demos only — not reported in the wild; requires the attacker's extension already installed.

WSO2 security advisory WSO2-2026-5328 / CVE-2026-5430 (published 3 May 2026; Critical): JWT authentication can be bypassed when a token is signed with an unsupported algorithm, allowing unauthorized access and potential administrative account takeover. Vendor CVSS 10.0 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H); single-tenant deployments adjusted to 9.8 (S:U). Affected: WSO2 API Manager 4.1.0–4.6.0; API Control Plane 4.5.0/4.6.0; Traffic Manager 4.5.0/4.6.0; Universal Gateway 4.5.0/4.6.0. The Hacker News (16 September 2026) cites watchTowr honeypot telemetry capturing forged admin JWTs on 13 September 2026 — active in-the-wild exploitation attempts. Support subscription holders: apply stated update levels (e.g. API Manager 4.6.0 UL 21, 4.5.0 UL 57, 4.4.0 UL 72, 4.3.0 UL 108, 4.2.0 UL 197, 4.1.0 UL 257; Control Plane/Traffic Manager/Universal Gateway levels on the advisory).

Docker security announcements (Sandboxes 0.42.0; NVD received CVE-2026-77179 on 15 September 2026) document two sandbox-escape flaws. CVE-2026-77179 (Critical, Docker CVSS 4.0 base 9.4): on macOS the virtio-fs host server followed symlinks when reopening an unlinked file from a stored path, so malicious guest code (e.g. a compromised AI coding agent inside sbx) could escape the shared project workspace and read/modify arbitrary host files as the VMM user — potentially host code execution. Affects Sandboxes 0.28.0 up to but not including 0.42.0 on macOS. Companion CVE-2026-79994 (High, CVSS 4.0 8.7): guest-to-host Unix-domain socket relay TOCTOU symlink race; affects 0.37.0 through 0.41.9. Both fixed in 0.42.0 (release notes / sbx-releases tag). Docker reports no exploitation; CISA SSVC exploitation none; not in KEV at wire check. Workaround if unable to upgrade: use clone mode and avoid additional host mounts. Category vulnerabilities with AI-agent sandbox tag. Primary: Docker security announcements; secondary: NVD / GitHub sbx-releases v0.42.0.
JFrog (15 September 2026) documents ParaShells: an unprivileged local user on macOS can get root via Parallels Desktop's prl_disp_service (world-writable Unix socket, weak local-client auth, appliance-extract argument injection into tar --use-compress-program). Lab-proven on Desktop 26.4.0 build 57513 (Apple silicon); treat installs that still expose the same InstallAppliance extract template and dispatcher socket as in scope. CVE-2026-90894. Fixed in Parallels Desktop 27.0.0 (JFrog: fix shipped 1 Sep; CVE/blog 14–15 Sep). THN notes Intel Macs cannot install Desktop 27 — those hosts need interim local-account lockdown / vendor guidance. No in-the-wild exploitation reported by JFrog. Primary: JFrog research blog.
Google’s September 2026 Pixel update (patch level 2026-09-05) addresses CVE-2026-58704 in the Cellular Modem: improper authorization / logic error enabling remote (proximal/adjacent) privilege escalation with low privileges, no user interaction. NVD (published 15 September 2026; Google as source) scores CVSS 3.1 8.0 (AV:A/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H).
