Edge Appliances Bleed: watchTowr Drops Kemp LoadMaster Pre-Auth RCE as Oracle EBS Joins the Exploited List

watchTowr published a critical pre-auth RCE exploit for Progress Kemp LoadMaster (CVE-2026-8037), a network-edge appliance commonly fronting enterprise services. Oracle E-Business Suite (CVE-2026-46817) and SimpleHelp (CVE-2026-48558) vulnerabilities are being actively exploited in the wild; the latter drops Djinn Stealer, a new cross-platform infostealer targeting cloud and AI credentials. Microsoft removed 119 malicious Edge extensions in the StegoAd campaign (2.6M installs) that used steganography to hide credential-stealing and ad-fraud payloads, while Mustang Panda exploits Zoho WorkDrive against Indian government targets and ShinyHunters breaches Oracle PeopleSoft systems affecting NAIC and Nissan. Coinbase and other major tech companies are shifting internal AI workloads to Chinese open-weight models (GLM 5.2, Kimi 2.7, DeepSeek V4) to reduce costs, raising supply-chain and data-leakage concerns.

ShinyHunters Burns a PeopleSoft Zero-Day Through Higher Ed as Copilot "SearchLeak" Shows AI Is the New Exfil Channel

A critical vulnerability blitz dominates this digest: Oracle PeopleSoft CVE-2026-35273, Splunk CVE-2026-20253, and an unpatched Microsoft Defender RoguePlanet zero-day are actively exploited, with ShinyHunters and other threat actors targeting higher education and enterprise networks. The AI/security layer has emerged as a major attack surface, exemplified by Microsoft 365 Copilot SearchLeak (one-click data exfiltration), Google Vertex AI cross-tenant RCE, and the Novo Nordisk breach that exposed proprietary AI model checkpoints and training infrastructure as ransomware extortion payload—underscoring that AI IP is now a strategic target.
