F5 Labs argues that AI systems embedded in the operations of the 2026 Winter Games (spectator chatbots, scheduling, translation, fraud detection, operational analytics) create a behavioral attack surface that traditional security controls do not cover. The main risk is manipulated model behavior rather than outages or stolen credentials. …
CERT-FR advisory CERTFR-2026-AVI-1317 reports multiple vulnerabilities in F5 products, mainly the NGINX family, covered by F5 security bulletins published on October 14, 2026. Some of the flaws allow an attacker to achieve remote arbitrary code execution, compromise data confidentiality and integrity, and cause remote denial of service. F…
F5 Labs published its 2026 cybersecurity predictions and scored its 2025 forecasts at 6.5/8, by its own assessment. The 2025 review cites AI-powered botnets, attacks on AI model APIs, AI side-channel attacks on cryptography, APT use of hacktivist personas, and expanded Roskomnadzor powers to isolate or reroute Russian internet traffic fro…
F5 released out-of-band security patches for multiple NGINX flaws, including three critical vulnerabilities: CVE-2026-15176 and CVE-2026-97205 in the ngxhttpv3module, and CVE-2026-93479 in the NGINX map directive. Unprivileged remote attackers can exploit them against systems with non-default configurations to cause denial of service or, …
F5 Labs published a "canary exploit" generator for CVE-2025-30065, a CVSS 10.0 flaw in the Apache Parquet Java parquet-avro Maven module. The tool lets defenders test whether their environments are vulnerable and confirm that patches and configuration are effective. F5's analysis finds the flaw far less severe than the CVSS score and earl…
F5 Labs analyzes CVE-2025-23061 and its predecessor CVE-2024-53900, a CVSS 9.0 flaw in the Mongoose MongoDB client library that allows remote code execution on Node.js API servers. The bug abuses the populate method, which accepts a $where clause containing arbitrary JavaScript. The initial fix for CVE-2024-53900 blocked only top-level $w…
CVE-2026-9082 is a critical (CVSS 9.8) pre-authentication SQL injection in the JSON:API module of Drupal Core. It was published on May 20, 2026 and added to the CISA KEV catalog the same month, with a remediation deadline of May 27. F5 sensors recorded 576 exploitation attempts from 9 source IPs between May 20 and May 31, 2026. The earlie…
F5 Labs published research on SparkRAT, a freely available, Go-based open-source Remote Access Trojan with a C2 server and builds for Windows, Linux and macOS. Public reporting since January 2023 shows use by a widening set of actors: Chinese-speaking groups, Winnti (APT41), Patchwork, TAG-100, suspected UAC-0194 against Ukraine, and Cybe…
CISA added four vulnerabilities to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) Catalog on 2026-09-22, citing evidence of active exploitation. The entries affect Check Point (two flaws in multiple products), Arista VeloCloud Orchestrator and F5 BIG-IP APM. The alert gives no exploitation details, threat actor attribution or IOCs. CISA notes …
F5 Labs honeynet telemetry shows overall hostile activity rising 55.5% month over month in June 2026, a return to the levels of the earlier-year spike. Highlighted is CVE-2024-44000, an unauthenticated account takeover flaw (CVSS 9.8, CWE-522) in the LiteSpeed Cache WordPress plugin, which rose by 1,128 to 2,603 attacks (8). Scanning is i…
F5 Labs, using Efflux sensor telemetry, analyzed December 2025 exploitation of React2Shell (CVE-2025-55182), a CVSS 10.0 unsafe deserialization RCE in React Server Components. It was disclosed on 3 December 2025 and rose to second place among the most exploited CVEs, behind only CVE-2017-9841. Within days of disclosure, actors moved from …
F5 Labs reports a scanning campaign observed on its Honeynet in March 2026. It recorded 1,897 session-grouped attempts (2,821 raw events) tied to CVE-2018-14028, a WordPress 4.9.7 unrestricted file upload flaw, and the CVE entered the monthly top 10 after being absent in February. Instead of exploiting the upload flaw, the operator probes…
F5 Labs, using Efflux sensor telemetry, found that HTTP requests hitting its sensors rose from 5,125,557 in 2023 to 8,727,820 in 2024 (about 71%, or nearly 95% once normalized for sensor count). Most of the increase came from the BotPoke scanner, which looks for filenames associated with malware distribution sites. It was active mainly in…
F5 Labs, using attack telemetry from Efflux's global sensor network, analyzed the most exploited vulnerabilities in July 2025 and found that nearly all top-scanned CVEs are HTTP-based RCE or command injection flaws in web interfaces. CVE-2017-9841 (PHPUnit) was the most exploited, followed by CVE-2023-1389 (TP-Link Archer AX21), CVE-2022-…
F5 Labs, using Efflux sensor telemetry, reports a campaign that began on 2025-06-08. One actor is exploiting TP-Link AX21 routers (CVE-2023-1389, command injection in the country query parameter) and Raisecom web interfaces (CVE-2024-7120) to deliver a new malware family named NoBooze1. Four source IPs and three stage-one hosts were rotat…
F5 Labs, using attack telemetry from Efflux sensors, reports that CVE-2017-9841 (PHPUnit eval-stdin.php RCE) remained the most targeted vulnerability in May 2025 with over 54,000 instances. CVE-2020-8958 (Guangzhou ONU command injection RCE) shows near-exponential targeting growth for a third consecutive month. CVE-2024-3721 (TBK DVR OS c…
F5 Labs published its November 2025 AI Security Insights, drawn from the Comprehensive AI Security Index (CASI) and Agentic Resistance Scoring (ARS). Anthropic models took the whole top tier of the CASI leaderboard (Claude Haiku 4.5 at 95.89, Claude Sonnet 4.5 at 95.86, Claude Sonnet 4 at 95.33), while the GPT-5 family slipped, with GPT-5…
This F5 Labs explainer describes how quantum computing affects cryptography. Shor's algorithm can efficiently break the problems behind RSA, DSA, Diffie-Hellman and ECC, while Grover's algorithm only halves the effective strength of symmetric ciphers such as AES. The article stresses "harvest now, decrypt later" risk: an adversary who rec…
The F5 Labs 2026 State of PQC on the Web report scanned the top 1 million domains with TLS 1.3 handshakes. It found that 54% support post-quantum (hybrid) key exchange, but the figure is driven mainly by CDNs, especially Cloudflare and Fastly, which enable PQC by default. Excluding Cloudflare-hosted domains, adoption falls to 22%. Sectors…
F5 Labs, with Efflux sensor telemetry, profiled a persistent information-disclosure scanner operating from 78.153.140.203 in a netblock of AS202306 (HOSTGLOBAL.PLUS LTD), a UK ISP. The IP was first seen on 10 January 2025, vanished on 10 April, and returned on 11 July 2025. It scans 130 unique URLs: 80.23% are variations of /.env, 11.45% …
