## Executive Summary

Active exploitation of critical enterprise software vulnerabilities has accelerated across multiple platforms in September 2026. CISA added Microsoft SharePoint CVE-2026-65660 and a MikroTik RouterOS flaw to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog citing evidence of active exploitation [SharePoint RCE and MikroTik RouterOS Flaws Actively Exploited in the Wild](https://thehackernews.com/2026/09/sharepoint-rce-and-mikrotik-routeros.html). Simultaneously, the ShinyHunters extortion gang resumed mass exploitation of Oracle PeopleSoft CVE-2026-35273 using a URL-encoding technique to bypass web application firewall rules [ShinyHunters uses WAF bypass trick in Oracle PeopleSoft attacks](https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/shinyhunters-uses-waf-bypass-trick-in-oracle-peoplesoft-attacks/) and [Attackers Bypass WAFs to Exploit Oracle PeopleSoft Flaw and Deploy Web Shells](https://thehackernews.com/2026/09/attackers-bypass-wafs-to-exploit-oracle.html).

Unpatched zero-day vulnerabilities in Citrix NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway appliances are under active exploitation with no vendor fix available, prompting some administrators to take appliances offline [Warning: Two Unpatched Citrix NetScaler RCE Zero-Days Under Active Exploitation](https://thehackernews.com/2026/09/warning-two-unpatched-citrix-netscaler.html). CISA also warned of active exploitation of a critical authentication bypass vulnerability (CVE-2026-5430) affecting multiple WSO2 products [CISA warns of Sharepoint, WSO2, Adobe Commerce flaws exploited in attacks](https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/cisa-warns-of-sharepoint-wso2-adobe-commerce-flaws-exploited-in-attacks/).

AI agent security has emerged as a governance priority following incidents including OpenAI agents accidentally uploading user-provided images to third-party sites [OpenAI's AI agents accidentally uploaded user-provided images to third-party sites](https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/artificial-intelligence/openais-ai-agents-accidentally-uploaded-user-provided-images-to-third-party-sites/) and a widely discussed intrusion at Hugging Face during evaluation of OpenAI agents [Zero Trust for AI Agents Starts With Fixing Zero Visibility](https://thehackernews.com/2026/09/zero-trust-for-ai-agents-starts-with.html). Supply chain risks persist with compromised GitHub Actions remaining accessible for over a week after re-enablement [GitHub Actions re-enabled with Mini Shai-Hulud payload still active](https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/github-actions-re-enabled-with-mini-shai-hulud-payload-still-active/).

## Recommendations for Action

1. **Immediate Patching Priority**: Apply mitigations for CVE-2026-35273 (Oracle PeopleSoft), CVE-2026-65660 (SharePoint), and CVE-2026-5430 (WSO2) within 72 hours per CISA KEV guidance. Validate WAF rules against URL-encoding bypass techniques demonstrated by ShinyHunters [ShinyHunters uses WAF bypass trick in Oracle PeopleSoft attacks](https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/shinyhunters-uses-waf-bypass-trick-in-oracle-peoplesoft-attacks/). **Evidence:** [CISA warns of Sharepoint, WSO2, Adobe Commerce flaws exploited in attacks](https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/cisa-warns-of-sharepoint-wso2-adobe-commerce-flaws-exploited-in-attacks/); [SharePoint RCE and MikroTik RouterOS Flaws Actively Exploited in the Wild](https://thehackernews.com/2026/09/sharepoint-rce-and-mikrotik-routeros.html)

2. **Citrix NetScaler Contingency**: Implement network segmentation and monitoring for NetScaler ADC/Gateway appliances. Evaluate taking vulnerable appliances offline until vendor patches are released, following administrator reports of this precautionary measure [Warning: Two Unpatched Citrix NetScaler RCE Zero-Days Under Active Exploitation](https://thehackernews.com/2026/09/warning-two-unpatched-citrix-netscaler.html).

3. **AI Agent Governance Framework**: Establish zero-trust controls for AI agent deployments including egress filtering, data loss prevention, and audit logging of agent actions. Review evaluation pipeline isolation following Hugging Face intrusion [Zero Trust for AI Agents Starts With Fixing Zero Visibility](https://thehackernews.com/2026/09/zero-trust-for-ai-agents-starts-with.html).

4. **Supply Chain Verification**: Audit all third-party GitHub Actions for integrity; implement pinned commit hashes and automated malware scanning. Monitor for MaaS infrastructure indicators (Lunex Stealer, ClickFix techniques) [GitHub Actions re-enabled with Mini Shai-Hulud payload still active](https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/github-actions-re-enabled-with-mini-shai-hulud-payload-still-active/) and [Lunex Stealer Abuses AMD Driver to Disable Security Monitoring and Steal Browser Credentials](https://thehackernews.com/2026/09/lunex-stealer-abuses-amd-driver-to.html).

5. **Web Application Hardening**: Update Elementor plugin immediately; implement CSRF tokens and same-site cookie policies. Monitor for unauthorized admin account creation [Elementor CSRF Flaw Lets Attackers Take Over Sites After Admin Clicks Crafted Link](https://thehackernews.com/2026/09/elementor-csrf-flaw-lets-attackers-take.html).
