On a given day, we capture the exploitation of SO many unique vulnerabilities, it's hard to know what to post about. We've been tracking a list of interesting bugs we've been waiting to show up. These include hard-to-reproduce vulns, but also vibecodable bugs that can be reproduced from patches alone, and tracking the time-to-exploit. Months ago, we reproduced CVE-2026-5430, an Auth Bypass in WSO2 API Manager, and we're now finally seeing exploitation in the wild. In a time of just prompting to reproduce vulnerabilities, it's interesting to see what gets picked up in hours, weeks, months, or not at all, even with readily available public exploit code.

šŸ‘€ @watchtowrcyber Intel captured real, hands-on-keyboard exploitation of the recent PaperCut NG/MF vulnerabilities, including fully decrypting webshell and C2 comms. Check it out: watchtowr.com/resources/pape…

wp2shell: 22 minutes to reproduce with Project Red. 11 minutes later, Active Defense pushed mitigations. All before in-the-wild exploitation began. A pre-auth RCE in WordPress: disclosure to exploitation in hours. Preemptive Exposure Management, built to outpace attackers.

The watchTowr team has broken down the Oracle EBS unauth RCE exploit chain (tagged as CVE-2025-61882). Important to note: it is not one vulnerability, but multiple chained together. As always, we'll share more soon.

Are we bleeding out? Enjoy our analysis of CitrixBleed 2, aka CVE-2025-5777 - the "new" Citrix NetScaler Memory Leak vulnerability. We've been using this mechanism to identify vulnerable systems, and hope it helps the teams that need it.. enjoy! labs.watchtowr.com/how-much-…

This was extremely fun, any chance to collaborate with @SinSinology normally results in šŸ”„!
This was hella fun, together with my colleague Jake (@inkmoro) we worked on this target, chaining pre-auth XXE(s) that allowed for limited file read to leak the plain-text admin password! After that, a post-auth command injection for RCE as NT SYSTEM (^_^)

8 million requests, $400 later - we’re back. šŸš€ We have demonstrated supply chain attacks that could have allowed us to trivially compromise critical infra. networks, including .gov, .mil, and more. This is real Attack Surface Management. labs.watchtowr.com/8-million…
