React Server Components typed-array RCE

CVE-2026-126187

A flaw in how React Server Components serialize several typed arrays in one payload can let an unauthenticated attacker run code on the server.

Risk

An unauthenticated attacker can run code in rare apps whose RSC payloads mix several typed arrays with attacker input. Public proof-of-concept code exists; React, Vercel and CISA had not reported exploitation as of November 11.

Recommended action

Update Next.js to 16.4.1 or later (15.5.28 on 15.x) or react-server-dom-* to a fixed 19.x release, then check the deployed version. Updating React alone does not fix Next.js.

php2shell

CVE-2026-109618 · CVE-2026-109619 · CVE-2026-115560

PHP runtime flaws can let unauthenticated attackers run code; a related session upload progress flaw affects applications with specific session settings.

Risk

CISA lists the original two flaws as known exploited. The separate session upload progress flaw was not in CISA's catalog on November 9.

Recommended action

Update the PHP runtime using the vendor advisory, and assess CVE-2026-115560 separately. Ask your hosting provider to confirm fixes if it manages PHP.

Linux IPv4 TCP use-after-free

CVE-2026-98432

A race condition in Linux's IPv4 TCP connection handling can expose kernel memory, crash a host, or allow remote code execution before application authentication.

Risk

Researchers demonstrated root command execution against MPTCP listeners; other IPv4 TCP services may also be affected. Reports reviewed on November 2 did not confirm real-world attacks.

Recommended action

Install your distribution's fixed kernel and verify it is running after a reboot or vendor-supported activation. Updating containers alone does not patch the host.

Citrix NetScaler command execution

CVE-2026-88771

An unauthenticated attacker can execute commands on affected NetScaler ADC and Gateway appliances, including default configurations.

Risk

Citrix reports exploitation of unmitigated appliances. Attackers can compromise affected gateways before sign-in, including deployments using the default configuration.

Recommended action

Update affected appliances using Citrix's bulletin. Investigate suspected compromise using the vendor's incident-response guidance.

WordPress SQL injection and RCE

CVE-2026-60137 · CVE-2026-63030

Two related WordPress flaws can expose database contents and allow unauthenticated code execution through distinct SQL-injection and REST API attack paths.

Risk

Affected sites can be compromised before sign-in. The July 20 review did not confirm active exploitation.

Recommended action

Check each site's WordPress version and apply the vendor's update or backport guidance. Keep compensating controls in place during remediation.
