CVE-2025-14601 Aug 20, 07:21 HIGH This Week

OS command injection in vsDesk's Task Scheduler component enables authenticated administrators to execute arbitrary operating system commands on the underlying server due to insufficient input filtering. Affecting at least vsDesk 11.06.02, the flaw - discovered and reported by Kaspersky - can be leveraged to disrupt web server operations, exfiltrate sensitive data, or achieve full server compromise. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis; exploitation requires high-privilege authenticated access, which meaningfully constrains opportunistic attack scenarios.

CVE-2026-14501 Jul 17, 20:17 CRITICAL Act Now

Remote code execution and information disclosure in IBM Db2 Genius Hub (1.1, 1.1.1, 1.1.2) and IBM Agentics 1.0 stem from the use of inherently dangerous functions invoked without sufficient input restrictions, allowing remote attackers to run arbitrary code or read sensitive data. IBM's PSIRT reported the flaw with a 9.8 critical CVSS reflecting network-reachable, unauthenticated exploitation with full confidentiality, integrity and availability impact. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the low EPSS score (0.33%, 25th percentile) suggests exploitation is not yet widespread.

CVE-2025-67604 May 12, 16:54 MEDIUM This Month

Denial-of-service attacks against Fortinet FortiAnalyzer and FortiManager 6.4 through 7.6.4 allow authenticated attackers to trigger system hangs via specially crafted HTTP requests that exploit a use of potentially dangerous function vulnerability (CWE-676). The crash occurs only when internal lock alignment conditions are met, making exploitation dependent on timing and system state rather than attacker control. CVSS 5.2 reflects medium severity with high attack complexity and low availability impact; active exploitation is not confirmed.
