CISA Adds Two Known Exploited Vulnerabilities to Catalog

 CISA has added two new vulnerabilities to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) Catalog, based on evidence of active exploitation. CVE-2026-5430 WSO2 Multiple Products Path Traversal Vulnerability CVE-2026-71362 Adobe Commerce and Magento Incorrect Authorization Vulnerability These types of vulnerabilities are a frequent attack vector for malicious cyber actors and pose significant risks to the federal enterprise.  Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 26-04: Prioritizing Security Updates Based on Risk establishes vulnerability management requirements for Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) agencies. BOD 26-04 reinforces the importance of the KEV Catalog and requires federal agencies to prioritize rapid remediation of high-risk vulnerabilities, specifically those identified by Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) listed in CISA’s KEV Catalog on publicly exposed assets that grant total control of the asset post-exploitation, while deferring action for lower-risk vulnerabilities. BOD 26-04 further establishes basic expectations for when agencies must check whether threat actors compromised the system before the patch was applied.  While BOD 26-04 applies only to FCEB agencies, CISA encourages all organizations to adopt risk-based vulnerability management and prioritize remediation of KEV Catalog vulnerabilities. CISA will continue to add vulnerabilities to the catalog that meet the specified criteria.  Aware of an exploited vulnerability not currently listed in the KEV Catalog? Submit it for potential addition through CISA’s KEV Nomination Form. Potenti

Considerations for Critical Infrastructure Operators Working With Third-Party ICS Integrators

Introduction The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA)—hereafter referred to as the “authoring agencies”—have published this fact sheet to highlight considerations for critical infrastructure entities to reduce risk and minimize vulnerabilities when working with third-party industrial control system (ICS) integrators. ICS is an umbrella term referring to integrated networks of hardware and software designed to monitor and automate physical processes, encompassing specialized control systems and devices, such as supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems and programmable logic controllers. Third-party integrators provide varying types of services for ICS, such as control system design, installation, operational data analysis, device support and service, and daily operational control. Critical infrastructure owners and operators should maintain caution when granting third-party ICS integrators high levels of access or control over industrial processes, ensuring the principle of least privilege (PoLP), is applied. PoLP within OT environments lends itself to granting users, processes, and systems only the minimum access necessary to perform their assigned tasks, and no more. PoLP is designed to protect owners and operators. Not adopting principles such as PoLP could expose owners and operators to malicious cyber actors seeking to compromise critical infrastructure, possibly providing sensitive access to pathways that actors can exploit to cause disruptive and destructive effects to equipment and critic
