Ivanti flaws remain part of an exploited access chain
New details on the Ivanti Connect Secure exploit chain follow the previous edition’s notice that CISA had listed two of its flaws: reporting describes unauthenticated root access and patches for the listed vulnerabilities. The chain also includes CVE-2026-104935, while the attacker’s identity and the full scope of activity remain unclear in the latest accounts. Separately, Coinspect said attackers still hold valid certificates for 13 domains involved in the Name.com redirection incident, although all 15 affected domains have been restored.
