Today's Security Brief

Friday's vulnerability disclosures include 18 critical and 100 high-priority CVEs, with Microsoft Windows and Office accounting for multiple actively exploited flaws. Critical counts rose 13% from the prior day while high-priority volume held steady. Notable critical disclosures include CVE-2026-26216 (CVSS 10.0, Docker API deployment), CVE-2026-1729 and CVE-2025-14892 (both CVSS 9.8, WordPress), and CVE-2026-26218 (CVSS 9.8, newbee-mall). SmarterTools SmarterMail appears in three separate actively exploited vulnerabilities, and Microsoft products span six KEV entries covering Windows and Office components. No patches are currently available for disclosed vulnerabilities, requiring defenders to prioritize compensating controls and network segmentation.

  • CVE-2026-26216 rated CVSS 10.0 affecting Docker API deployment — highest severity disclosure this cycle
  • 18 critical CVEs disclosed, up 13% from prior day's 16; 100 high-priority CVEs unchanged
  • Microsoft products dominate active exploitation with 6 KEV entries across Windows and Office

  • 20 actively exploited vulnerabilities confirmed, up 18% from prior day's 17

Immediate action: Prioritize compensating controls for Microsoft Windows, Microsoft Office, and SmarterTools SmarterMail environments given multiple actively exploited vulnerabilities with no patches currently available. Apply network segmentation and restrict access to Docker API, WordPress, and FreePBX instances until vendor patches are released.
