CVE-2026-85724 Sep 23, 16:11 Maven CRITICAL POC PATCH GHSA Act Now

Cross-tenant authorization bypass combined with pre-authentication denial of service in Moquette Broker 0.18.0 and earlier lets unauthenticated remote MQTT clients read and write other tenants' topics and repeatedly wedge or exhaust the broker. The critical flaw is wildcard injection through pattern-based ACLs that substitute %c/%u with an unvalidated clientId, so a client connecting with clientId '+' turns a rule such as sensor/%c/# into the filter sensor/+/#; from the same unauthenticated position an attacker can also trigger a $share/grp SUBSCRIBE StringIndexOutOfBoundsException, a StackOverflowError on deeply nested topics, an ACL NPE, unauthorized Will-message publishes, and unbounded subscription/retained/interceptor state that causes memory or disk exhaustion. Publicly available exploit code exists in the form of source-only PoCs (JDK 17) for the pattern-ACL bypass, the shared-subscription crash, and the H2 metadata collision; the vendor-released fix is 0.18.1, and no CISA KEV entry or confirmed in-the-wild exploitation was provided. Score of 9.6 reflects scope change with high confidentiality and integrity impact, gated on a multi-tenant pattern-ACL configuration for the worst outcome.

CVE-2026-87016 Sep 09, 22:18 PyPI HIGH POC PATCH GHSA This Week

OAuth and SCIM identity confusion in Open WebUI 0.6.41-0.10.x (SQLite-backed deployments only) allows unauthenticated remote attackers to hijack arbitrary stored user accounts, including administrator accounts, by presenting an OAuth subject claim containing SQL LIKE wildcard characters. SQLAlchemy's `JSON.contains()` on SQLite compiles to a substring LIKE match rather than an exact equality check, so a crafted `sub` claim such as `%admin%` can resolve to a different stored identity and cause the server to issue the attacker a valid session token for that identity. Vendor-released patch is available in version 0.11.1; no active exploitation has been confirmed.

CVE-2026-49482 Jun 11, 22:55 MEDIUM This Month

SQL wildcard character injection in ClipBucket v5's subtitle editing endpoint allows authenticated users to overwrite all subtitle titles across every video they own in a single HTTP request. Affected versions are all releases prior to 5.5.3 - #141 of the open-source video sharing platform maintained by MacWarrior. No public exploit exists and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV, but the trivial exploitation mechanism (a single % character) means any authenticated account could cause bulk subtitle data corruption against their own content.

CVE-2025-11757 Oct 21, 18:15 HIGH This Week

Authenticated attackers can exploit improper MQTT topic sanitization in CloudEdge Cloud to subscribe to wildcard topics and receive messages intended for other users, including camera credentials and peer-to-peer connection keys. The vulnerability is assessed as high confidentiality impact with no integrity or availability impact, requires authentication (PR:L), and has no public exploit identified at time of analysis; EPSS is 0.32% (23rd percentile).

CVE-2025-4232 Jun 13, 00:15 HIGH PATCH This Week

CVE-2025-4232 is an improper neutralization of wildcards vulnerability in Palo Alto Networks GlobalProtect app for macOS that allows non-administrative users to escalate privileges to root through the log collection feature. With a CVSS score of 8.8 and requiring only low complexity remote network access with low privileges, this vulnerability presents a critical privilege escalation risk. The attack requires user interaction only at the network level (not UI) and affects the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of affected systems.
