CVE-2026-39459 HIGH PATCH This Week

Authenticated attackers with Manager role or higher in F5 BIG-IP can execute arbitrary commands via malicious configuration objects in iControl REST API and TMOS Shell (tmsh). This privilege escalation vulnerability allows administrators to break out of their intended access boundaries and achieve full system control. CVSS 7.2 (High) reflects network accessibility with high privileges required. No public exploit code or active exploitation confirmed at time of analysis.

CVE-2025-1384 HIGH This Week

CVE-2025-1384 is a least privilege violation (CWE-272) in the communication protocol between Omron NJ/NX-series Machine Automation Controllers and Sysmac Studio software that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected controllers. The vulnerability affects industrial automation environments and enables complete compromise of controller functionality through unauthorized remote code execution. While the CVSS score of 7.0 indicates moderate-to-high severity, the network-accessible attack vector and lack of required privileges make this a significant threat to operational technology (OT) environments, particularly in manufacturing and critical infrastructure sectors.

CVE-2025-49144 HIGH PATCH This Week

CVE-2025-49144 is a privilege escalation vulnerability in Notepad++ v8.8.1 and earlier that exploits insecure executable search paths in the installer to allow unprivileged local users to execute arbitrary code with SYSTEM privileges. An attacker can leverage social engineering to colocate a malicious executable with the legitimate installer in a writable directory (e.g., Downloads), and upon installer execution, the malicious payload runs with elevated privileges. The vulnerability is fixed in version 8.8.2.
