Check Point Patches Critical VPN Certificate Flaws Enabling Unauthenticated RCE
Check Point patched two critical 9.8-rated vulnerabilities in its VPN certificate handling that allow unauthenticated remote code execution. The flaws affect Security Gateways, Management Servers, and Spark Firewalls across multiple versions.
**If you use Check Point Quantum Gateways, Security Management Servers, or Spark Firewalls, patch them ASAP. Don't assume you're safe because VPN is switched off, since the flaw can still trigger if certificates exist. If you can't patch right away, disable implied VPN rules and restrict UDP ports 500 and 4500 to your known peer IPs only. Start planning replacement of any end-of-support R80.x/R81.x devices. Those will not be patched.**

Microsoft Reports Nine Cloud Identity and AI Vulnerabilities Out of Patch Tuesday, Two Max Severity
Microsoft issued an out-of-band update on September 3, 2026, fixing nine cloud-platform vulnerabilities (eight critical, including two CVSS 10.0 flaws in Azure AD B2C and Azure AI Language Authoring), with the most consequential being two Entra ID bypasses. All were patched server-side with no customer action needed. The exposure duration is not clear.
**Microsoft already fixed all nine flaws on their side, so there's nothing for you to patch. Since attackers may have had a window before the fix, review your Entra ID and Azure sign-in logs and check for any unexpected new admin roles, app registrations, or service principals over the past few months. Don't assume your identity provider is safe by default: turn on alerting for unusual logins and privilege changes, and cut back permissions on service principals and apps to only what they actually need.**

MikroTik has patched six vulnerabilities, including the "MikroTrick" exploit chain, which allows unauthenticated attackers to gain full administrative control over RouterOS devices. CERT Polska confirmed active exploitation of these flaws. Attackers are creating unauthorized accounts and establishing persistent network tunnels.
**If you use MikroTik routers, first make sure the device is isolated from the internet and reachable only from trusted networks. Block SSH, WebFig, and bandwidth-test access from outside. Then install the fixed RouterOS version (7.23.4, 7.24.2, or 6.49.21 and newer) from the official MikroTik download page, check whether the device is Flagged as compromised, and delete any accounts you didn't create, such as one named "ops".**

Postgres MCP Pro Restricted-Mode Bypass Allows Arbitrary Host File Disclosure
Postgres MCP Pro version 0.3.0 contains a critical restricted-mode bypass (CVE-2026-85620) that allows unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary files from the database host. The flaw is caused by an incomplete SQL validation in the Abstract Syntax Tree parser, enabling the execution of dangerous functions through FROM clauses.
**If you're running Crystal DBA's Postgres MCP Pro (version 0.3.0 or earlier), don't rely on its restricted mode to keep your AI agents in check. It can be bypassed to read files off your server, including passwords and private keys. Change the database account the MCP server uses to a least-privilege role, strip its superuser status and `pg_read_server_files` permission, and keep it off the internet until an official fix ships.**

The largest incident is being ShinyHunters' leak of 12.9 million Carhartt accounts, part of a broader ShinyHunters campaign also hitting McKesson and Baxter. Attacks were driven mainly by unauthorized access, ransomware, phishing, and third-party compromise (mostly in manufacturing, government, and healthcare). Critical vulnerabilities were patched in widely used software like Chrome, Next.js, Apache Tomcat, ServiceNow, Keycloak, and several WordPress plugins.
**Update Chrome/Chromium browsers and start patching WordPress plugins. This week is heavy on WordPress issues.**

Apple Patches Actively Exploited macOS Screen Sharing Vulnerability Used in Crypto Mining Attacks
Apple patched a macOS Screen Sharing vulnerability (CVE-2026-65400) that allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and gain root access. Attackers are actively exploiting the flaw to install Monero crypto miners on systems with port 5900 exposed to the internet.
**If you use a Mac, update macOS now to Tahoe 26.6.1, Sequoia 15.7.9, or Sonoma 14.8.9 to fix CVE-2026-65400, which attackers are already using to take full control of Macs without a password. Also turn off Screen Sharing when you don't need it and make sure port 5900 is not reachable from the internet.**

TeamPCP Supply Chain Attack on LiteLLM Has Exposed Secrets of 2,500 Organizations

**Assume anything you pull from a public registry can turn hostile overnight: pin dependencies and CI actions to an exact verified hash, never let build pipelines install tools "latest" from a package manager, and keep build machines on short-lived, least-privilege credentials so a poisoned package steals little and only briefly. Then rehearse the recovery: know which secrets each pipeline can reach, be able to rotate them all in hours rather than weeks, and watch your build systems for outbound connections and new persistence just as closely as you watch production.**

**If you run self-hosted Metabase (version 1.58 or newer), this is urgent. Your Metabase is under attack. Update immediately to the patched release for your branch (0.58.24, 0.59.21, 0.60.17, 0.61.11, 0.62.9, or 0.63.5). if you can't patch right now, block all traffic to the /api/session/reset_password endpoint as a stopgap. After patching, check your application and ingress logs for a failed password-reset POST followed straight away by a successful /api/user/current request. Tf you see it, treat the instance as breached: clear the core_session table to log everyone out, rotate all connected database passwords, and check your admin accounts for anything you didn't create.**

The flaw allows unauthenticated attackers to gain full control over the orchestrator and all managed SD-WAN edge devices.
**Make sure all VeloCloud Orchestrator On-Prem devices are isolated from the internet and accessible only from trusted administrative networks. Then immediately upgrade to a fixed release (5.2.3.14, 6.1.3.4, 6.4.2.4, or 7.0.0.1) and block the known malicious IPs (8.19.75.217, 206.72.242.124, 206.72.242.162) at your firewall. After patching rotate all credentials and certificates so attackers can't reuse any potentially stolen data.**
