A sample of today’s digest
What today’s lead call looks like in your inbox.
You read the intro. If nothing applies, you’re done in 90 seconds. If something does, the call is one click away.
An attacker can send malicious serialized data to Microsoft HPC Pack 2019 over the network and get code execution, no authentication required.
The call: Apply the latest Microsoft security update for HPC Pack 2019 and verify your HPC head nodes are not exposed to the internet.
Recent issues you could have triaged in five minutes:
HPC Pack 9.8 deserialization RCE, KVM guest-to-host escape, and Teams XSS
Microsoft HPC Pack 2019 has a no-auth remote code execution bug via serialized payloads (CVE-2026-59124, CVSS 9.8). Also: a KVM nested-virt flaw lets AMD guests DoS the host (8.2), XSS in Teams for Android (8.8) and Azure Storage Explorer (8.8), plus a local PowerShell command injection (7.8). Nothing exploited in the wild yet, but that HPC Pack attack surface is trivial.
Edge heap overflow, a 9.8 SQLi with full PoC, and a PowerShell privesc
CVE-2026-72970 hits Edge with unauthenticated remote code execution (CVSS 8.3), Metacat's REST API is wide open to unauthenticated SQL injection with public exploits (CVSS 9.8), and a PowerShell command injection gives local attackers an easy privilege escalation path (CVSS 7.8). WordPress and AllData bugs round it out.
ManageEngine auth bypass hands attackers the keys to your vault
CVE-2026-12263 (CVSS 8.8) lets unauthenticated attackers walk past SAML validation in Password Manager Pro and PAM360. Also: SQL injection in Hongjing e-HR, a KVM s390 host memory corruption bug, an IBM i privilege escalation, and a cross-tenant boundary break in Multicluster Engine.
