CVE-2026-76687 Sep 15, 20:17 HIGH This Week

Privilege escalation in the HPE Networking EdgeConnect SD-WAN Orchestrator API lets an attacker who already holds a low-privilege account elevate to root and run arbitrary operating-system commands on the appliance. The flaw is remotely reachable (AV:N) but requires authentication plus a high-complexity exploitation path per the assigned CVSS vector (7.5, AC:H, PR:L). No public exploit code or CISA KEV entry was present in the supplied intelligence, so this is currently a post-authentication hardening priority rather than an actively exploited zero-day.

CVE-2026-82310 Sep 15, 19:56 CRITICAL Act Now

Deactivated user accounts in the Apache Airflow FAB auth provider (apache-airflow-providers-fab 2.0.0 before 3.9.0) keep working through the Airflow 3 Core API: the password login path correctly rejects a disabled account, but any JWT access token issued before deactivation is still accepted and can be exchanged for a fresh token indefinitely. The result is that an administrative deactivation — typically performed as a containment action against a departing employee or compromised account — silently fails, leaving the account with its original role-scoped access to the Airflow control plane. No signature forgery or privilege escalation is involved; the holder simply replays their own still-valid credential. The issue is rated moderate by the project, with no CVSS vector, CWE, EPSS score, KEV entry, or public exploit code supplied in the available intelligence, and remediation is available in version 3.9.0.

Reported by Google Devices. CPE: google:android. Tags: Privilege Escalation, Google, Race Condition. Reference: Android security bulletin September 2026 Pixel. Note: "System execution privileges needed" — this is Android bulletin phrasing meaning the attacker needs System-level privileges already... Actually in Android bulletins, "System execution privileges needed" means the vulnerability requires the attacker to already have System privileges? Hmm, actually Android bulletin says "This could lead to local escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed" — meaning the attacker needs System execution privileges? Historically it means exploitation requires the attacker to run code with System privileges already... Actually it means the vulnerability can lead to local escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed — i.e., it requires System-level privileges to exploit. That means privilege escalation from System to... hmm, in Android, "System" is a UID (system uid 1000). So it escalates to kernel. Actually "with System execution privileges needed" means the attacker must already have System privileges. CVSS PR:L is consistent-ish. Actually PR:L. Hmm but if System privileges needed, PR:H might be more apt. Given CVSS says PR:L, I'll assess PR:L... Hmm. My own assessment: AV:L/AC:H/PR:H? Let me think. The Android phrasing "System execution privileges needed" — needed to exploit — implies significant privileges already (system UID, not just any app). That's PR:H arguably. But CVSS gives PR:L. I'll go with PR:H? Let's be careful — I should ground my assessment in the description. The description says "with System execution privileges needed" — this means the exploit requires system-level privileges. So PR:H is honest. But the vendor's own CVSS says

CVE-2026-58704 Sep 15, 18:34 HIGH This Week

A permission bypass in the Android Cellular Modem (baseband) component lets an attacker who is within radio range of the device escalate privileges inside the modem context, exposing confidentiality, integrity and availability of device data with no user interaction. Exploitation requires the attacker to already hold low-level privileges on the modem interface (CVSS PR:L) and to be network-adjacent (AV:A), which in practice points to a rogue or compromised cellular base station rather than an internet-based attacker. The flaw stems from a logic error in permission checking rather than a memory-safety bug, and at time of analysis there is no public exploit code and no CISA KEV listing, though the vendor has published a fix in the September 2026 Pixel security bulletin that should be treated as authoritative.

A race condition in the trusty_dputc() debug output path of generic-arm64-smcall.c in the Android kernel allows an out-of-bounds write that can be leveraged for local privilege escalation. The flaw is only reachable by a process already running with System execution privileges, and exploitation requires winning a timing window (AC:H, PR:L), with no user interaction. Impact is high across confidentiality, integrity and availability because the corrupted memory is kernel/secure-monitor adjacent, but no public exploit code or in-the-wild exploitation is known from the available intelligence.

An out-of-bounds write in the NXP NFC hardware abstraction layer (phNxpNciHal_ext_process_nfc_init_rsp in phNxpNciHal_ext.cc) lets a local attacker corrupt memory beyond the intended buffer while the HAL processes an NFC initialization response. Affected are Android devices that ship the NXP NFC HAL, which the Android CPE lists without a version bound; the flaw requires no user interaction and, per Google's bulletin wording, no additional execution privileges, so a typical app-level foothold is enough to attempt escalation. There is no CISA KEV listing and no public exploit code reported in the supplied intelligence, so exploitation is assessed as feasible but not yet observed.

Privilege escalation in Mozilla Firefox affects all builds prior to Firefox 156 and Firefox ESR 153.3, stemming from use of uninitialized memory inside the Graphics: CanvasWebGL component. A remote attacker who gets a victim to render crafted WebGL canvas content can corrupt memory in the graphics path and potentially escalate privileges or execute arbitrary code in the browser's context — the CVSS vector confirms no authentication is required (PR:N) but user interaction is (UI:R). No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis and the CVE is not listed in CISA KEV; Mozilla shipped fixes in Firefox 156 and Firefox ESR 153.3 per advisories MFSA2026-90 and MFSA2026-93.

A privilege-escalation flaw in Firefox's Crash Reporting component lets an attacker who can influence crash-report handling gain elevated privileges on the affected host, potentially leading to full compromise of confidentiality, integrity and availability. Exploitation is unauthenticated at the network layer (PR:N) but requires victim interaction (UI:R), and affects Firefox builds prior to 156 and Firefox ESR prior to 153.3. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, CISA KEV does not list this CVE, and CISA's SSVC framework rates exploitation as 'none' with automatable 'no', indicating a serious but not currently weaponized issue.

Privilege escalation in Mozilla Firefox for Android allows an attacker who can get a user to open a crafted web page to gain privileges beyond those normally granted to web content, with high impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Mozilla fixed the flaw in Firefox 156; no public exploit code and no active exploitation have been identified, and CISA's SSVC assessment rates exploitation as 'none' with automatable 'no'. The 8.8 CVSS score is driven entirely by a network attack vector plus required user interaction (UI:R), so real-world risk depends on convincing a target to browse attacker-controlled content rather than on mass scanning.

Fixed in Firefox 156, ESR 115.41, ESR 140.16, ESR 153.3. SSVC: exploitation none, automatable no, technical impact total. No KEV, no POC mentioned. Product name: "Firefox WebExtensions" — 1-3 words. Maybe "Mozilla Firefox" is safest but the specific component is WebExtensions. Let's use "Firefox WebExtensions". Hmm, guidance says product name 1-3 words, specific product. "Firefox WebExtensions" works. Summary: must not start with "A vulnerability". Start with impact verb + product. "Privilege escalation in Mozilla Firefox's WebExtensions component allows ..." Requires UI:R, so user interaction — a user must visit a page or install an extension? Description is vague. CVSS says AV:N/PR:N/UI:R. So an attacker could get a user to interact (e.g., install malicious extension or visit a page) which then allows privilege escalation from extension context to higher privileges (browser-level / OS-level?). CWE-269 improper privilege management. Be careful: we don't know exact mechanism beyond "privilege escalation in WebExtensions component". Confidence notes should state that the root cause mechanism is not described publicly beyond CWE-269; Bugzilla bug 2060235 is likely restricted. Affected products: Firefox < 156, ESR < 115.41, ESR < 140.16, ESR < 153.3. CPE cpe:2.3:a:mozilla:firefox:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*. Advisories mfsa2026-90 through -93. Remediation: upgrade to Firefox 156, ESR 115.41, ESR 140.16, ESR 153.3. Workarounds: restrict extension installation via enterprise policy (ExtensionSettings / blocked_install_message), disable WebExtensions? Not feasible.

Product name: Duplicati. Tags include "Microsoft" which is likely a mislabeled tag — Duplicati is an independent open-source project (duplicati.com), not Microsoft. Though it runs on Windows... The tag "Microsoft" as vendor is wrong. Emit mislabeled_tag with target "Microsoft". Confidence high? Duplicati is an independent open-source backup tool, not Microsoft. Yes, high confidence. Missing tags? Maybe "windows" — since it's Windows-specific. Hmm, missing_tag target "Windows", suggested "windows". That's unambiguously implied ("Duplicati for Windows", MSI installers). Could emit. But careful — is "windows" a valid tag slug in their taxonomy? They said emit only when unambiguously implied. I'll include it with high confidence... Actually risk: their taxonomy may be "Microsoft Windows". Hmm. I'll include it maybe. Let's be a bit conservative but it seems clearly applicable. I'll include "windows" for missing_tag. Hmm, but if the slug doesn't exist it might attach a bad tag. The instructions say suggested is "lowercase hyphenated slug (e.g. target "WordPress", suggested "wordpress")". So "windows" is fine. Also "privilege-escalation" technique tag is already present as "Privilege Escalation". Fine. CVSS given is 4.0 base with E:X etc. Score 7.0. PR:L, AV:L, UI:P. Hmm, why UI:P?

Privilege escalation to full administrator equivalence in the Eventin event management plugin for WordPress allows any authenticated user who controls the user ID 1 account - regardless of their currently assigned role - to bypass every WordPress capability check and achieve remote code execution via the built-in plugin and theme editors.

Exploitation is conditional on user ID 1 having been demoted to a lower-privilege role as a hardening measure; default installations where user ID 1 retains administrator rights are not impacted.

Privilege escalation in the SMS Alert Order Notifications WordPress plugin (versions ≤ 3.9.9) allows any authenticated subscriber - the lowest standard WordPress role - to elevate their account privileges, potentially gaining full administrative control over the affected site. The CVSS 8.8 score with PR:L confirms that only a low-privileged account is required, making exploitation accessible to any registered user on the platform. No public exploit code or active exploitation via CISA KEV has been identified at time of analysis.

Privilege escalation in the Gato GraphQL WordPress plugin (versions ≤ 19.2.3) allows authenticated subscribers - the lowest registered-user role in WordPress - to elevate their access beyond their assigned privileges. The root cause is CWE-266 (Incorrect Privilege Assignment), where the plugin's GraphQL endpoint handling fails to properly gate privileged operations against low-privilege requestors. No confirmed active exploitation or public POC is identified at time of analysis, but the trivially low access bar of a subscriber account combined with full CIA impact makes this a high-priority finding for any WordPress installation running this plugin.

Deactivated user accounts in the Apache Airflow FAB auth provider (apache-airflow-providers-fab 2.0.0 before 3.9.0) keep working through the Airflow 3 Core API: the password login path correctly rejects a disabled account, but any JWT access token issued before deactivation is still accepted and can be exchanged for a fresh token indefinitely. The result is that an administrative deactivation — typically performed as a containment action against a departing employee or compromised account — silently fails, leaving the account with its original role-scoped access to the Airflow control plane. No signature forgery or privilege escalation is involved; the holder simply replays their own still-valid credential.

Let me build the JSON. CVE-2026-58724: Android kernel use-after-free due to race condition, local EoP requiring System execution privileges, no UI. CVSS 7.0 AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H. Reported by Google Devices. CPE: google:android. Tags: Privilege Escalation, Google, Race Condition. Reference: Android security bulletin September 2026 Pixel. Note: "System execution privileges needed" — this is Android bulletin phrasing meaning the attacker needs System-level privileges already... Actually in Android bulletins, "System execution privileges needed" means the vulnerability requires the attacker to already have System privileges? Hmm, actually Android bulletin says "This could lead to local escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed" — meaning the attacker needs System execution privileges? Historically it means exploitation requires the attacker to run code with System privileges already... Actually it means the vulnerability can lead to local escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed — i.e., it requires System-level privileges to exploit. That means privilege escalation from System to... hmm, in Android, "System" is a UID (system uid 1000). So it escalates to kernel. Actually "with System execution privileges needed" means the attacker must already have System privileges. CVSS PR:L is consistent-ish. Actually PR:L. Hmm but if System privileges needed, PR:H might be more apt. Given CVSS says PR:L, I'll assess PR:L... Hmm. My own assessment: AV:L/AC:H/PR:H? Let me think. The Android phrasing "System execution privileges needed" — needed to exploit — implies significant privileges already (system UID, not just any app). That's PR:H arguably. But CVSS gives PR:L. I'll go with PR:H? Let's be careful — I should ground my assessment in the description. The description says "with System execution privileges needed" — this means the exploit requires system-level privileges. So PR:H is honest. But the vendor's own CVSS says

A permission bypass in the Android Cellular Modem (baseband) component lets an attacker who is within radio range of the device escalate privileges inside the modem context, exposing confidentiality, integrity and availability of device data with no user interaction. Exploitation requires the attacker to already hold low-level privileges on the modem interface (CVSS PR:L) and to be network-adjacent (AV:A), which in practice points to a rogue or compromised cellular base station rather than an internet-based attacker. The flaw stems from a logic error in permission checking rather than a memory-safety bug, and at time of analysis there is no public exploit code and no CISA KEV listing, though the vendor has published a fix in the September 2026 Pixel security bulletin that should be treated as authoritative.

A race condition in the trusty_dputc() debug output path of generic-arm64-smcall.c in the Android kernel allows an out-of-bounds write that can be leveraged for local privilege escalation. The flaw is only reachable by a process already running with System execution privileges, and exploitation requires winning a timing window (AC:H, PR:L), with no user interaction. Impact is high across confidentiality, integrity and availability because the corrupted memory is kernel/secure-monitor adjacent, but no public exploit code or in-the-wild exploitation is known from the available intelligence.

Affected are Android devices that ship the NXP NFC HAL, which the Android CPE lists without a version bound; the flaw requires no user interaction and, per Google's bulletin wording, no additional execution privileges, so a typical app-level foothold is enough to attempt escalation. There is no CISA KEV listing and no public exploit code reported in the supplied intelligence, so exploitation is assessed as feasible but not yet observed.

Fixed in Firefox 156, ESR 115.41, ESR 140.16, ESR 153.3. SSVC: exploitation none, automatable no, technical impact total. No KEV, no POC mentioned. Product name: "Firefox WebExtensions" — 1-3 words. Maybe "Mozilla Firefox" is safest but the specific component is WebExtensions. Let's use "Firefox WebExtensions". Hmm, guidance says product name 1-3 words, specific product. "Firefox WebExtensions" works. Summary: must not start with "A vulnerability". Start with impact verb + product. "Privilege escalation in Mozilla Firefox's WebExtensions component allows ..." Requires UI:R, so user interaction — a user must visit a page or install an extension? Description is vague. CVSS says AV:N/PR:N/UI:R. So an attacker could get a user to interact (e.g., install malicious extension or visit a page) which then allows privilege escalation from extension context to higher privileges (browser-level / OS-level?). CWE-269 improper privilege management. Be careful: we don't know exact mechanism beyond "privilege escalation in WebExtensions component". Confidence notes should state that the root cause mechanism is not described publicly beyond CWE-269; Bugzilla bug 2060235 is likely restricted.

Missing tags? Maybe "windows" — since it's Windows-specific. Hmm, missing_tag target "Windows", suggested "windows". That's unambiguously implied ("Duplicati for Windows", MSI installers). Could emit. But careful — is "windows" a valid tag slug in their taxonomy? They said emit only when unambiguously implied. I'll include it with high confidence... Actually risk: their taxonomy may be "Microsoft Windows". Hmm. I'll include it maybe. Let's be a bit conservative but it seems clearly applicable. I'll include "windows" for missing_tag. Hmm, but if the slug doesn't exist it might attach a bad tag. The instructions say suggested is "lowercase hyphenated slug (e.g. target "WordPress", suggested "wordpress")". So "windows" is fine.

Exploitation is not confirmed in the wild and no public exploit code was identified at time of analysis, but the upstream fix is public (leapp-repository PR 1343 / commit 3e4caff) and the CVSS score is 7.3 with all three impact metrics High.

Privilege escalation to full administrator equivalence in the Eventin event management plugin for WordPress allows any authenticated user who controls the user ID 1 account - regardless of their currently assigned role - to bypass every WordPress capability check and achieve remote code execution via the built-in plugin and theme editors. The flaw is rooted in PermissionManager::manage_permissions() unconditionally returning the always-true 'exist' capability primitive for all capability evaluations when the requesting user ID equals 1, granting blanket access to manage_options, edit_plugins, edit_themes, promote_users, and update_core. Exploitation is conditional on user ID 1 having been demoted to a lower-privilege role as a hardening measure; default installations where user ID 1 retains administrator rights are not impacted.

Mounting or parsing a crafted NTFS image can therefore drive the kernel to reference clusters beyond the volume boundary, corrupting memory and potentially escalating privilege.
