Summary
CVE-2023-36845 is a PHP External Variable Modification vulnerability in J-Web of Juniper Networks Junos OS that allows an unauthenticated, network-based attacker to remotely execute code by modifying the PHPRC variable. This enables code injection and execution in the PHP execution environment.
Risk Assessment
This vulnerability poses a significant risk to organizations as it allows for remote code execution, potentially leading to system takeover. An attacker could exploit this flaw to deploy malware or steal data.
Recommendation
It is recommended to update Junos OS to a version that is not vulnerable to this issue, specifically to version 20.4R3-S9 or later. Additionally, network traffic should be monitored for potential attack attempts.

ZITADEL before 3.4.14 and 4.x before 4.16.2 contains an authentication bypass in the hosted Login V1 UI because the 'external account not found' registration endpoint trusts client-supplied external identity fields without a completed IdP callback. Unauthenticated attackers can submit forged IDPConfigID and ExternalUserID values to pre-create an account bound to a victim's external IdP identity, which the victim's later genuine external login then signs into.

ZITADEL 3.x before 3.4.15 and 4.x before 4.17.1 contains an improper authorization vulnerability: when issuing passkey or passwordless enrollment codes, it checks only the organization in the x-zitadel-orgid header, not the target user's organization. Attackers with user-write permission in one organization can obtain an enrollment code for a user in another organization on the same instance and register their own authenticator to take over that account.
- CVE-2026-105207Critical
ZITADEL 3.0.0 through 3.4.15 and 4.0.0 before 4.17.3 creates links between user accounts and external identity providers without verifying a primary factor or the caller's permission, including on identify-only Login V2 sessions and via the User Service V2 AddIDPLink endpoint. An unauthenticated attacker knowing a victim's login name can bind their own external IdP identity to the victim's account and then sign in as the victim.

Missing authentication for critical function in the ait-server telemetry and command broker in NASA-AMMOS AIT-Core through 3.1.1. An unauthenticated remote attacker with network access to the ZeroMQ message bus can inject spacecraft command data, exfiltrate command and telemetry traffic, inject forged telemetry, or disrupt the bus. The ZeroMQ broker binds XSUB and XPUB sockets to all interfaces by default without authentication.
- CVE-2026-71885Critical
In Bouncy Castle for Java before 1.86, the Messaging Layer Security (MLS, RFC 9420) implementation did not bind an X.509 credential to a LeafNode's signature_key. LeafNode.verify() checked a leaf's signature against the signature_key carried in the leaf itself, while the credential's X.509 certificate chain was stored but never parsed or validated, so the end-entity certificate's public key was never required to match signature_key as RFC 9420 sec. 5.3 requires. An attacker could present another party's certificate as its credential while signing the leaf, and the enclosing KeyPackage, with an unrelated key, and be accepted under that other party's identity through KeyPackage.verify() and the Group leaf-validation path.
- CVE-2026-92084Critical
The Beaver Builder Page Builder plugin for WordPress up to version 2.11.0.5 is vulnerable to arbitrary shortcode execution. This is due to insufficient validation before running do_shortcode, allowing unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary shortcodes. Exploitation requires a page with the Sidebar module containing a widget that displays attacker-controlled text, such as the Recent Comments widget with approved comments.
