CISA adds Cisco ISE CVE-2026-76460 and Acronis Backup CVE-2026-87886 to KEV catalog over active exploitation
CISA added two vulnerabilities to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) Catalog based on evidence of active exploitation: CVE-2026-76460, an incorrect use of privileged APIs flaw in Cisco Identity Services Engine, and CVE-2026-87886, an incorrect default permissions flaw in Acronis Backup. CISA describes these vulnerability types as a frequent attack vector for malicious cyber actors and a significant risk to the federal enterprise. The alert gives no exploitation details, threat actor attribution, victim information or IOCs. It restates the requirements of BOD 26-04 for Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) agencies, and CISA encourages all organizations to adopt risk-based vulnerability management and prioritize KEV remediation.
Detalhes técnicos
- CVE-2026-76460: Cisco Identity Services Engine Incorrect Use of Privileged APIs Vulnerability.
- CVE-2026-87886: Acronis Backup Incorrect Default Permissions Vulnerability.
- The article does not list affected versions, exploitation methods, the impact of exploitation or whether the flaws are chained.
Remediação
- Under BOD 26-04, FCEB agencies must prioritize rapid remediation of KEV-listed CVEs on publicly exposed assets that grant total control of the asset after exploitation.
- BOD 26-04 also sets basic expectations for when agencies must check whether threat actors compromised a system before the patch was applied.
- CISA encourages all organizations to prioritize remediation of KEV Catalog vulnerabilities.
- The article gives no specific patch or mitigation guidance; consult the Cisco and Acronis vendor advisories.
