CISA Adds Two Known Exploited Vulnerabilities to Catalog

CISA added two Ivanti Connect Secure vulnerabilities to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) Catalog on 30 October 2026, citing evidence of active exploitation: CVE-2026-111357 (missing authentication for a critical function) and CVE-2026-118527 (generation of predictable numbers or identifiers). The alert restates BOD 26-04, which requires federal civilian agencies to remediate KEV-listed flaws on exposed assets and check for prior compromise. It also links the KEV nomination form.

CISA: Critical Vulnerabilities in PHP Require Immediate Patching

CISA alert on CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619 ("php2shell"), unauthenticated remote code execution flaws affecting PHP installations serving web requests, including mod_php, PHP-FPM, php-cgi, FrankenPHP and LiteSpeed. Fixed in PHP 8.5.12, 8.4.27, 8.3.36 and 8.2.35. Updated 23 October 2026 with a Sigma rule, partner advisories (NSA, NCSC-UK, ASD ACSC, NCSC-NL, NCSC-NZ, Cyber Centre) and guidance to inventory PHP, patch internet-facing systems first, and watch for PHP workers spawning shells.

CVE-2026-111497 is an out-of-bounds write in the Brotli decoder bundled with Node.js (CWE-787, CWE-252), rated CVSS v4.0 9.2 by the Google CNA and High by the Node.js project. Fixes are Node 22.23.4, 24.22.1 and 26.12.1, and 24.22.1 still labels Brotli 1.2.0 because the fix was cherry-picked.

Two critical RCEs in PHP core

Cisco Talos advisory on "php2shell", two unauthenticated RCE flaws in PHP core, CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619 (CVSS v4.0 9.2), affecting every build since PHP 5.4. One flaw is an out-of-memory handling bug leaving request data partly initialized; the other reuses stale state after free. PHP 8.1 and older get no patch (about 50% of PHP systems). Includes ini-level mitigations and Snort SIDs 67359 and 67360. No exploitation seen as of 21 October 2026.

PHP2Shell is the informal name for CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619 (CVSS v4.0 9.2), unauthenticated remote code execution flaws in the PHP core runtime. Patches for branches 8.2 to 8.5 were scheduled for 21 October at 14:00 UTC, while PHP 8.1 and older get no fix; about 884,000 internet-facing hosts run those versions. watchTowr reproduced CVE-2026-109618, no public PoC existed at writing, and Sansec expects mass exploitation within 15 minutes of release.

CVE-2026-97229: Critical Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution in GitLab

Rapid7 analysis of CVE-2026-97229, a CVSS 10.0 integer overflow (CWE-190) in the Onigmo regex compiler used by GitLab CE/EE's CI/CD regex handling. A crafted regex in a .gitlab-ci.yml passes validation as US-ASCII, then is recompiled for a UTF-8 repository path, producing invalid instructions that give code execution as the git user. Rapid7 reproduced it on GitLab CE 19.4.1 with ASLR (patched in 19.4.2); despite the vendor's "unauthenticated" rating, the attacker needs to commit a malicious config to a public project, which self-registration allows. No in-the-wild exploitation is confirmed, and Rapid7 recommends urgent upgrades.
