CISA Incident Response Findings: GeoServer Exploits

🔒 CISA assisted a U.S. federal civilian executive branch agency after endpoint alerts showed threat actors exploiting CVE-2024-36401 in public-facing GeoServer instances to gain initial access. The actors operated undetected for roughly three weeks, deployed web shells and proxy/C2 tools, and moved laterally to a web and SQL server. CISA highlights urgent patching of KEV-listed flaws, exercising incident response plans, and improving EDR coverage and centralized logging.

CISA Advisory: Lessons from Recent Incident Response

🔒 CISA published an advisory summarizing lessons learned from an incident response engagement after its endpoint detection and response tool detected potential malicious activity. The guidance emphasizes expedited patching—highlighting exploitation of GeoServer CVE-2024-36401—alongside strengthened incident response planning and enhanced threat monitoring. Organizations are urged to prioritize fixes for public-facing systems, test response playbooks, and implement centralized logging to improve detection and reduce exposure.

Malware Analysis: Ivanti EPMM Exploitation and Loaders

🔍 CISA analyzed malicious artifacts deployed after threat actors exploited CVE-2025-4427 and CVE-2025-4428 in Ivanti Endpoint Manager Mobile (EPMM). The report details two distinct loader/listener sets written to /tmp that enable arbitrary code execution through crafted HTTP requests. CISA provides IOCs, YARA and SIGMA detection rules, and recommends immediate patching and treating MDM systems as high-value assets.

Apple releases September 2025 OS updates with patches

🔒 Apple published iOS 26, iPadOS 26 and macOS 26 updates that patch multiple vulnerabilities but did not report active exploitation. The releases address 27 defects in iOS/iPadOS and 77 in macOS, and also include fixes across Safari, watchOS, visionOS and Xcode. Users who prefer not to upgrade to the year-numbered releases can apply security-only updates — iOS 18.7, iPadOS 18.7 or macOS 15.7 — while many devices from 2019 or earlier are not supported. Trend Micro’s Dustin Childs said he saw no sign of active exploitation in this batch, though macOS fixes for PackageKit and StorageKit are notable because exploitation could yield root privileges.

Critical RCE in Delmia Apriso Triggers Urgent Patching

⚠ A critical remote code execution flaw, CVE-2025-5086, has been observed being exploited in the wild against Delmia Apriso, Dassault Systèmes' manufacturing operations platform.
