VU#529388: Privilege escalation vulnerability via unprotected IOCTL interface in Pegatron Tdelo64.sys
Overview A privilege escalation vulnerability exists in the tdeio64.sys driver due to an unprotected input/output control (IOCTL) dispatch routine that fails to validate the origin and permissions of user-supplied requests. An unprivileged local attacker can abuse exposed IOCTL dispatch routines [RM1.1][MB1.2]to perform arbitrary kernel memory read and write operations, ultimately obtaining NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM privileges and compromising the security of the affected system. Description The tdeio64.sys driver distributed by Pegatron Corporation, a Taiwanese electronics manufacturer that produces motherboards and OEM components, is a Windows Driver Model (WDM) driver that provides low-level access to system I/O ports and hardware components. The driver exposes the \\.\TdeIo device interface and processes privileged IOTL requests without enforcing adequate access control or validating user-supplied memory addresses. CVE-2026-14961 By sending a crafted DeviceIoControl request, an unprivileged attacker can abuse the driver's IOCTL dispatcher to perform arbitrary kernel memory reads and writes. This capability can be used to overwrite the current process token with the SYSTEM process token, resulting in privilege escalation to NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM . CVE-2026-14960 In addition to arbitrary kernel memory access, the driver exposes IOCTLs capable of interacting directly with hardware I/O ports. An attacker who successfully exploits these interfaces may be able to manipulate hardware resources in ways that extend beyond normal operating system protections. Impact &l
Overview Two distinct cryptographic signature verification vulnerabilities exist in Digital Bazaar node-forge, a widely used JavaScript library implementing cryptographic primitives for Node.js and browser environments. These vulnerabilities allow attackers to forge RSA (PKCS#1 v1.5) and Ed25519 signatures under specific, exploitable conditions. Description Both vulnerabilities stem from insufficient enforcement of canonical cryptographic structures during verification: in the RSA case, non-standard ASN.1 encodings and undersized padding are accepted; in the Ed25519 case, non-canonical signature scalars are not rejected. As a result, node-forge accepts signatures that appear valid internally but are rejected by industry-standard libraries such as OpenSSL and Node.js’s native crypto module. The vulnerabilities affect node-forge versions 0.1.2 through 1.3.3 for RSA-PKCS#1 v1.5, and 0.7.4 through 1.3.3 for Ed25519. Both issues were resolved in v1.4.0, released on 2026-04-05. CVE-2026-33894 arises in lib/rsa.js , where RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5 verification accepts forged signatures due to two related flaws. First, the ASN.1 parser for DigestInfo permits non-canonical encodings—specifically, structures with more than the two required fields (algorithm OID and octet string), including attacker-controlled additional data. Second, the PKCS#1 v1.5 decoding logic fails to enforce the RFC 2313 requirement that the padding string ( PS ) must be at least 8 bytes . These combined weaknesses enable attackers to construct specially crafted signatures, particularly with low public exponents (e.g., e = 3 ), that node-forge validates successfully while standard implementations correctly reject them.

Microsoft Corp. today released software updates to plug at least 570 security holes in its Windows operating systems and other software, almost triple the number of vulnerabilities the software giant fixed in its record-smashing Patch Tuesday release last month. Microsoft attributed the burgeoning patch counts to vulnerability discoveries aided by artificial intelligence. Nearly 60 of the bugs quashed in July’s Patch Tuesday earned a “critical” severity rating, meaning miscreants or malware could use them to seize remote control over a Windows device with little or no help from the user. Microsoft also addressed three zero-day flaws, including two that are already being exploited in the wild. Two of the zero-day weaknesses allow an attacker to elevate their user rights on a Windows system, as do approximately 250 other elevation of privilege flaws fixed this month; they include CVE-2026-56155 — an Active Directory Federation Services bug — and CVE-2026-56164 , a Microsoft Sharepoint vulnerability.

On July 3, 2026, the Albanian communications authority (AKEP), the operator of the .al country-code top-level domain (TLD) of Albania, attempted a DNSSEC key rollover. Something went wrong, resulting in DNSSEC validation failures. Any validating DNS resolver receiving these signatures was required by the DNSSEC specification to reject them and return errors to clients. That includes 1.1.1.1 , the public DNS resolver operated by Cloudflare. The .al TLD is the online home of Albanian government services, banks, and media; it ranks #191 on Cloudflare Radar's TLD ranking . Anyone trying to visit those sites, using a validating resolver, found them unreachable during the incident. The failure had the potential to affect every .al domain, regardless of where it was hosted or which authoritative nameservers served it. Just two months earlier, a similar incident struck .de , the TLD of Germany. As we described in our blog post on the incident , our response was to install a Negative Trust Anchor (NTA) for .de , temporarily suspending DNSSEC validation in 1.1.1.1 to keep domains reachable while the registry resolved the issue. We did the same for . al . NTAs restore resolution, but silently. A client receiving a response served under an NTA has no way to tell, from the response alone, that DNSSEC validation was bypassed, leaving it unable to distinguish a legitimate answer from a spoofed one. For the .al incident, 1.1.1.1 addressed that gap for the first time, returning a new Extended DNS Error (EDE) code alongside every affected res

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has issued a postmortem on a recent data leak in which a contractor published dozens of internal CISA credentials — including AWS Govcloud keys — in a public GitHub repository for almost six months before being notified by KrebsOnSecurity. Experts say the gaps identified in the agency’s initial response provide important lessons that all security teams should absorb. On May 15, 2026, the security firm GitGuardian asked for help in notifying CISA about the existence of a public GitHub repository called “Private CISA” that included 844 MB of sensitive CISA-related data. One of the exposed files, titled “importantAWStokens,” included the administrative credentials to three Amazon AWS GovCloud servers. Another file — “AWS-Workspace-Firefox-Passwords.csv” — listed plaintext usernames and passwords for dozens of internal CISA systems. CISA quickly acknowledged our initial alert, but took more than 48 hours to invalidate the AWS keys and many other important secrets leaked in the GitHub repo. In its report on the data leak , CISA said the complexities of the agency’s systems and interconnections with federal and industry partners caused its key rotation to take long
Bot mitigation is an adversarial game: attackers adapt, defenders respond, and the cycle continues. At Cloudflare, we stay ahead by combining visibility across our global network with signals from the client-side environment. At the network level, we analyze over 1 trillion requests per day to understand reputation, patterns, and anomalies across more than 20% of the web. On the client side, we’ve pushed detection deeper with Cloudflare Turnstile , which has evolved from a CAPTCHA replacement to a risk-based managed challenge that adapts the amount of friction needed to verify the user is authentic. Today, Turnstile runs nearly 3 billion times per day on some of the most sensitive endpoints on the Internet, helping verify users at key moments like login, signup, and checkout. This improves protection on the most important areas of customer applications, but still leaves limited visibility into the rest of the application — how humans and bots actually interact across the full user journey. This is the visibility gap we’re closing today with our launch of Precursor . Introducing Precursor Precursor is a client-side, session-based verification system, built with privacy in mind, that uses dynamically injected JavaScript to continuously collect behavioral signals as visitors interact with your application. These signals are processed and incorporated into Cloudflare’s bot protection in real time, allowing us to continuously distinguish human traffic from automated or agentic traffic. This extends the client-side detections offered by a

Overview GNU Wget, versions 1.25.0 and earlier, contains a server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in its implementation of FTP passive mode. Because Wget does not properly validate IP addresses obtained from PASV responses, an attacker-controlled FTP endpoint can redirect the client’s connection to arbitrary IPs, potentially exposing internal network host and service responses. This vulnerability has been remediated in a recent update by GNU; see the Solutions section below for resolution guidance. Description GNU Wget is a widely used command-line utility for retrieving content over HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP. When operating over FTP in passive mode, Wget relies on the server’s PASV response to determine which IP address and port to use for the data connection. CVE-2026-15146 GNU Wget does not validate the IP address provided by an FTP PASV response while operating in FTP passive mode. A malicious FTP server, or an HTTP server that redirects to an FTP URL, can exploit this behavior to redirect Wget’s data connection to an arbitrary IP address and port. This allows an attacker to forge server-side requests (SSRF) from the machine running Wget, potentially accessing localhost services or internal network resources. This issue belongs to a known class of FTP PASV vulnerabilities such as CVE-2021-40491 , which was previously remediated in GNU Inetutils. Impact A remote attacker controlling or influencing an FTP endpoint can induce Wget to establish connections to otherwise inaccessible internal network addresses. This may allow the attacker to retrieve service banners, access internal HTTP endpoints, or exfiltrate data from internal systems reach

In 2021, we shipped Smart Tiered Cache . The idea: for each origin behind your site, Cloudflare picks the single best upper-tier data center to route through, based on real-time latency. Flip one switch, and we find the fastest path from our network to your origin. That works as long as an origin IP lives in one fixed place. Public cloud origins usually don't. They sit behind anycast or regional unicast front ends, so one origin IP can look equally close to a dozen Cloudflare data centers at once — and the latency probes have nothing to lock onto. Smart Tiered Cache handles this the safe way: when there's no clear winner, it falls back to several upper tiers. Nothing breaks. You just lose the thing that made a single closest tier worth it, which is cache efficiency. Smart Tiered Cache for Public Cloud Regions fixes this by letting you provide a cloud region hint. With that hint, Cloudflare can map public cloud origins to the right region and select better primary and fallback upper tiers, even when the origin IP itself looks anycast or ambiguous. We made our most popular tiered cache topology smarter Since it was launched, Smart Tiered Cache has become the most popular tiered cache topology among Cloudflare customers. It’s available to all plans, for free. Much of our work aims to continually improve it. Over time, we’ve extended Smart Tiered Cache to handle more origin architectures, including: November 2024 : Smart Tiered Cache for R2 : We taught Smart Tiered Cache to automatically select the closest upper tier to where the R2 bucket actually lives, reducing latency with zero configuration.

Overview PayRange is a mobile payment app that allows users to pay for vending machines, laundromats, and other unattended machines using a smartphone with Bluetooth. Two vulnerabilities were discovered in version 7.0.7 of the PayRange app that is available in the Google Play store. Description A vulnerability (CVE-2026-13462) exists in the PayRange Android app that causes invalid SSL certificates to be accepted in application WebViews. A second vulnerability (CVE-2026-13461) exists that allows the injection of JavaScript, which can be used to escape the WebView sandbox and perform a number of dangerous actions on the user's device. These vulnerabilities were discovered in version 7.0.7 of the PayRange app. The PayRange app bypasses Android's SSL trust chain and accepts certificates that match any of the following rules (including self-signed certificates): Common Name ends with "payrange.com" Common Name contains "stripe.com" Common Name contains "fetlifestatus.com" AND any of these conditions are true: Issuer Common Name is "R10" Issuer Common Name is "R3" Issuer Common Name contains "Network Solutions" The attack vector is an on-path interception. If an attacker can direct traffic intended for a legitimate server to a device they control, they can negotiate a TLS connection with the user's device using any trusted certificate that matches the rule set. They are then able to inject content into the WebView and harvest credentials, issue malicious requests and read data entered by the user, including exchanges with the PayRange and Stripe servers. Impact An attacker may be able to intercept any information they can convince the

RSA and ECC, cryptographic algorithms that we’ve all relied on for decades, are vulnerable to the attack of sufficiently advanced quantum computers. Such quantum computers do not exist yet, but they seem to be coming sooner than expected. Luckily, the solution is already available: migrate to ML-KEM encryption and ML-DSA signatures, which are designed to be resistant to quantum attack. They were standardized in 2024 by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) after an eight-year open international competition. The migration to post-quantum cryptography is in full swing now. At the time of writing, the majority of traffic handled by Cloudflare is already using ML-KEM encryption, and is thus secured against the threat to data posed by harvest-now-decrypt-later attacks. But encryption is only one part of the equation: to be fully secure against quantum computers capable of breaking classical cryptography, we aim to deploy post-quantum signatures to protect authentication systems from unauthorized access. We are targeting 2029 for Cloudflare to be fully post-quantum secure. ML-DSA, the best all-around post-quantum signature scheme standardized today, has its downsides: it’s much larger on the wire, and many tricks we were able to perform with RSA and ECC simply cannot be
Overview Two vulnerabilities have been discovered in Xerte Online Toolkits, an open-source e-learning authoring toolsuite intended for the creation of learning materials within a web browser. CVE-2026-14261 tracks the persistence of the /setup/ directory after installation, which allows an unauthenticated attacker to reconfigure the application to point to a remote database they control in order to gain administrative access. CVE-2026-12116 tracks an editable antivirus binary path that can be redirected to a PHP interpreter, causing uploaded files to be executed as PHP code and resulting in remote code execution (RCE). Version v3.15.5 or v3.14.6 of Xerte Online Toolkits fixes these vulnerabilities. Description Xerte Online Toolkits is a suite of a free, open-source e-learning authoring tools that allows users to make educational materials directly in-browser. The toolset is installed from multiple packages, and creates a setup folder that persists after installation. CVE-2026-14261 A vulnerability in Xerte Online Toolkits allows for authentication bypass and remote code execution via reinstallation through the /setup/ folder, enabling attackers to reinstall the service to a remote database they control. CVE-2026-12116 A vulnerability in Xerte Online Toolkits allows for RCE through the antivirus binary path in the tools server settings. The antivirus binary runs on all uploaded files, but the path to the binary can be modified using the configuration menu. An attacker can achieve remote code execution by redirecting the path to a PHP interpreter, causing any uploaded PHP scripts to be executed. During installation, Xerte creates a /setup/
