Overview An authentication bypass vulnerability in the Xerj Console API allows sessions to bypass passkey-backed requirements during token issuance. By exploiting this flaw, an attacker with an existing valid token can create independent, persistent successor credentials directly through the console API. This allows the attacker to maintain access and potentially escalate privileges within the Xerj ecosystem, even if…

CVE-2026-88771 lets attackers run commands on NetScaler Gateway before anyone signs in. Patching takes time most teams don't have, so the sign-in decision has to move in front of the vulnerable code.
Artificial Intelligence technologies have made a huge impact on the security industry. But as with any public technology, adversaries have access to AI as well. They’re wasting no time incorporating AI into their malicious workflows and ransomware operators have been able to leverage it - unfortunately, this has led to some of their successes.Fortunately, there is plenty of potential for defenders to leverage similar…

Every Cybersecurity Awareness Month campaign rests on four habits: Strong passwords, Multifactor authentication, Spotting phishing, and keeping software updated. All four assume a person is the one signing in, reading the message and clicking install. At a growing number of companies that person is now an AI agent, and AI agent security has no equivalent of the annual training. The National Cybersecurity Alliance's t…
