🔒Google has released emergency security updates to address a high-severity Chrome zero-day, CVE-2025-10585, which a public exploit indicates is being used in the wild. The vulnerability is a type confusion weakness in Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine and was reported by Google's Threat Analysis Group. Google issued emergency Stable Desktop releases — Chrome 140.0.7339.185/.186 for Windows and macOS and 140.0.7339.185 for Linux — and recommends users update immediately via Chrome menu > Help > About Google Chrome and click 'Relaunch' once the update finishes.

⚠️ Google released security updates for Chrome to address four vulnerabilities, including a zero-day (CVE-2025-10585) in the V8 JavaScript and WebAssembly engine that is reported to be exploited in the wild. The issue is a type confusion bug discovered and reported by Google's Threat Analysis Group on September 16, 2025, and can enable arbitrary code execution or crashes. Users should update to Chrome 140.0.7339.185/.186 (Windows/macOS) or 140.0.7339.185 (Linux) and apply vendor patches for other Chromium-based browsers when available.

🛡️ Apple has released iOS 16.7.12 and iPadOS 16.7.12 to address a critical zero-day in the ImageIO framework (CVE-2025-43300) that can trigger memory corruption when processing crafted images. The vendor says the flaw is an out-of-bounds write and that it may have been exploited in targeted attacks against specific individuals. The fix improves bounds checking and was back-ported from the 18.6.2 updates to reach older devices. Users, particularly those on older iPhones and iPads, are advised to install the update immediately.

🔒 Amazon RDS for MySQL now supports the Extended Support minor release 5.7.44-RDS.20250818, and AWS recommends upgrading to this build to address known security vulnerabilities and bug fixes in earlier 5.7 releases. Extended Support provides up to three additional years of critical security and bug fixes after a major community end-of-support date. This coverage applies to MySQL databases running on both RDS and Aurora, and administrators can create or update instances in the Amazon RDS Management Console; see the Amazon RDS User Guide for upgrade details.

🔒 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.

⚠ 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. CISA added the issue to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog with a CVSS score of 9.0, yet the vendor has provided minimal public guidance. Researchers report exploit scans and a circulating sample that was detected by only one AV engine, underscoring urgent patching challenges for manufacturers.

📸 Samsung disclosed a critical remote code execution vulnerability in a closed-source image-parsing library, libimagecodec.quram.so, supplied by Quramsoft that affects devices running Android 13–16. The out-of-bounds write (CVE-2025-21043, CVSS 8.8) can be triggered by a specially crafted image and has been exploited in the wild. Messaging apps are a likely vector and the flaw can operate as a zero-click backdoor. Samsung released an SMR Sep-2025 Release 1 patch; enterprises should prioritize deployment.

⚠️ Microsoft reminded customers that Windows 10 will reach end of servicing on October 14, 2025, with the October monthly update being the last security release for affected versions. After that date, Microsoft will no longer provide bug fixes or technical assistance for security, stability, or usability issues. Customers are advised to upgrade eligible devices to Windows 11, migrate to Windows 365 in the cloud, enroll in Extended Security Updates (ESU), or consider LTSC/LTSC alternatives for specialized devices.

🔒 Samsung has released a patch for a critical remote code execution vulnerability tracked as CVE-2025-21043 that was actively exploited on Android devices. Reported by Meta and WhatsApp security teams on August 13, the flaw stems from an out-of-bounds write in libimagecodec.quram.so, a closed-source Quramsoft image parser, and affects devices running Android 13 and later. Samsung’s advisory notes an exploit was observed in the wild and that other messaging apps using the vulnerable library could also be at risk; users should apply the September SMR update promptly.

🔒 Adobe issued an emergency out-of-band patch for a critical vulnerability in Magento Open Source and Adobe Commerce, tracked as CVE-2025-54236 and dubbed SessionReaper. The flaw permits unauthenticated attackers to hijack user accounts and, when file-based session storage is used, can enable remote code execution. Adobe notified Commerce customers on Sept. 4 but Magento Open Source users may not have received the same advance warning. Organizations operating Magento sites should apply the patch immediately.

🔧 Microsoft has resolved severe lag and stuttering issues affecting NDI streaming on Windows 10 and Windows 11 that appeared after the August 2025 cumulative security updates. The root cause was tied to KB5063878 and KB5063709 and manifested as dropped NDI traffic and degraded performance specifically over RUDP connections, while UDP and Single-TCP streams were unaffected. On September 9, 2025, Microsoft released fixes (KB5065426 and KB5065429) and recommends applying those updates; NDI also published a temporary workaround to switch Receive Mode to Single TCP or UDP in the NDI Tools Access Manager for systems that cannot immediately update.

🔒 Adobe has issued an emergency patch for a critical input-validation vulnerability dubbed SessionReaper in Adobe Commerce and Magento. The flaw, tracked as CVE-2025-542360 with a CVSS score of 9.1, affects multiple 2.4.x releases and earlier. Sansec researchers said the bug can enable session hijacking and, according to the original finder, may allow unauthenticated remote code execution in some circumstances. Administrators are advised to deploy APSB25-88 immediately or enable a WAF as a temporary mitigation.

🔒 SAP on Tuesday released security updates addressing multiple vulnerabilities, including three critical flaws in SAP NetWeaver that could enable remote code execution and arbitrary file uploads (notably CVE-2025-42944, CVE-2025-42922 and CVE-2025-42958). The company also fixed a high-severity input-validation issue in SAP S/4HANA (CVE-2025-42916). Security researchers recommend immediate patching and temporary mitigations such as P4 port filtering to limit exposure.

🔒 CISA has ordered immediate patching of a critical deserialization vulnerability in Sitecore (CVE-2025-53690), rated 9.0, after active exploitation was observed. The flaw arises from exposed ASP.NET machine keys—some copied from older deployment guides—and allows ViewState deserialization that leads to remote code execution. Agencies must rotate machine keys, harden configurations, and scan for compromise indicators by September 25, 2025, to mitigate further intrusions.

We recommend upgrading instances via the Amazon RDS Management Console or programmatically with the AWS SDK/CLI, and following the Amazon RDS Custom User Guide for detailed upgrade instructions.

🔒TP-Link has confirmed an unpatched zero-day in its CWMP implementation that can enable remote code execution on multiple routers. Independent researcher Mehrun (ByteRay) reported the issue to TP-Link on May 11, 2024; the flaw is a stack-based buffer overflow in the SOAP SetParameterValues handler caused by unbounded strncpy calls. TP-Link says a patch exists for some European firmware builds and that fixes for U.S. and other global versions are in development; users should update firmware, change default admin credentials, and disable CWMP if it is not required.

🔒 Mandiant disrupted an active exploitation of a critical zero-day in Sitecore's Experience Manager and Experience Platform that permits remote code execution via ViewState deserialization. Publicly disclosed on September 3 as CVE-2025-53690 (CVSS 9.0), the flaw affects Sitecore versions up to 9.0 when deployments retained the sample ASP.NET machine key published in older deployment guides. Attackers used the vulnerability to deliver WEEPSTEEL and other tooling, harvest credentials and perform lateral movement. Sitecore has issued a security advisory, notified impacted customers and says recent deployments now auto-generate unique machine keys.
