CVE-2026-75137 Sep 02, 19:16 MEDIUM PATCH This Month

Cleartext vault data in UpSignOn for Windows before 7.19.0 persists in process memory after the application locks, exposing all stored secrets to any local attacker with standard user privileges. Using the Windows PROCESS_VM_READ permission, an attacker can call ReadProcessMemory() against UpSignOn.exe and extract entry names, URLs, usernames, passwords, TOTP secrets, and notes in plaintext - defeating the lock screen's security guarantee. No public exploit code is identified at time of analysis and no CISA KEV listing exists, but the technique is well within the reach of any attacker with local access to the workstation.

CVE-2026-75135 Sep 02, 19:15 MEDIUM PATCH This Month

Sensitive key retention in UpSignOn for Windows before 7.19.0 allows a local attacker with low privileges to recover the master password and decrypt the entire password vault. The backup key used to protect an encrypted master password backup is retained in the memory of UpSignOn.exe even after the vault is re-locked, enabling an attacker who can read process memory to extract it, decrypt the master password backup stored in v6-vault1.DATA.txt, and subsequently export all stored credentials in cleartext. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, but the attack chain is mechanically straightforward once local access is established.

CVE-2026-27875 Aug 21, 17:52 MEDIUM PATCH CISA This Month

Cleartext credential exposure in Johnson Controls Simplex Incident Manager / Autocall Fire Administrator (all versions before 2.01.05) allows a local low-privilege attacker who meets specific preconditions to retrieve sensitive data stored unencrypted in application memory (CWE-316). The CVSS 4.0 vector's subsequent-system confidentiality impact (SC:H) is especially notable given this platform interfaces with fire alarm controllers and building safety networks, meaning extracted credentials could be leveraged against downstream safety-critical infrastructure. No public exploit code and no CISA KEV listing have been identified at time of analysis.

CVE-2026-8636 Jun 22, 14:16 HIGH PATCH This Week

Sensitive-data disclosure in IBM Datacap and Datacap Navigator (versions 9.1.7, 9.1.8, 9.1.9) lets an attacker recover user passwords and cryptographic keys that the application holds in cleartext in memory; the recovered keys can then decrypt stored credentials, authenticate to the application, and reach sensitive data in the backing database. IBM has released a patch. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, EPSS exploitation probability is negligible (0.08%, 0th percentile), and CISA SSVC rates exploitation as 'none' - indicating low immediate field risk despite the high CVSS confidentiality impact.

CVE-2026-0857 May 20, 10:50 MEDIUM This Month

Cleartext storage of sensitive information in memory (CWE-316) affects both the Meona Client Launcher Component and the Meona Server Component from Mesalvo, exposing confidential data to local privileged attackers. The CVSS vector (AV:L/PR:H/S:C/C:H) indicates that a locally authenticated administrator can read sensitive material - likely credentials or session tokens - directly from process memory, with the changed scope suggesting this exposure can cascade to resources or components beyond the initially compromised process. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and the vulnerability has not been added to the CISA KEV catalog.
