CVE-2026-43617 MEDIUM PATCH This Month

Hostname-based ACL bypass in the rsync daemon (rsync ≤ 3.4.2) allows unauthenticated remote attackers to circumvent administrator-configured deny rules when the daemon runs with chroot enabled. By manipulating the PTR record for their source IP or engineering a reverse DNS resolution failure, an attacker causes the daemon to fall back to the default hostname 'UNKNOWN', which does not match any configured deny entry and therefore permits the connection. Confidentiality and integrity are both partially at risk; no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and a vendor-released patch (v3.4.3) is available.

CVE-2026-3184 LOW Monitor

Improper hostname canonicalization in util-linux login(1) utility with the -h option allows remote attackers to bypass host-based PAM access control rules by supplying specially crafted hostnames that are modified before being passed to PAM_RHOST, potentially leading to unauthorized access. The vulnerability affects Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 through 10 and related products; exploitation requires high attack complexity but no authentication or user interaction. No public exploit code has been identified, and this is not currently confirmed as actively exploited.

CVE-2026-32036 npm MEDIUM PATCH GHSA This Month

OpenClaw gateway plugin versions before 2026.2.26 allow remote attackers to bypass authentication by exploiting path traversal in the /api/channels endpoint through encoded dot-segment sequences. Attackers can manipulate these paths to access protected plugin routes that should be restricted, gaining unauthorized access to sensitive channel functionality. No patch is currently available for this medium-severity vulnerability.

CVE-2025-14777 MEDIUM PATCH This Month

Keycloak's admin API endpoints for authorization resource management contain an IDOR vulnerability allowing authenticated administrators with fine-grained permissions for one client to delete or modify resources belonging to other clients within the same realm. The flaw exists in ResourceSetService and PermissionTicketService where authorization checks validate the resourceServer (client) ID from the API request, but backend database operations use only the resourceId, creating a permission bypass. Affected administrators can exploit this with standard HTTP requests to cross-client resource boundaries; no public exploit code identified at time of analysis.
