- Siemens Mendix SAML Module
ICSA-26-302-01 republishes Siemens SSA-137528 on the Mendix SAML module, which has an authentication bypass (CVE-2026-89209). An unauthenticated remote attacker can replay a valid SAML assertion in IdP-initiated flows to gain unauthorized access. Fixed in 4.2.4 for Mendix 10 and 11, and 3.6.29 for Mendix 9. Initial release was 26 October 2026.

CVE-2026-106173 is a critical (CVSS 9.4) unauthenticated arbitrary file write in FortiSIEM's phQueryMaster gRPC service on port 27918/TCP. The SendQueryResult method builds a path from the query-id parameter without validation, so "../" sequences escape the directory and a null byte drops the appended filename and extension. Overwriting /opt/charting/redishb.sh, which runs every 60 seconds, gives remote command execution. Horizon3.ai published the analysis and a PoC.
