This weekly threat intelligence bulletin covers multiple active ransomware campaigns, four critical vulnerabilities under active exploitation, and emerging AI-driven threats. Notable items include actively exploited RCE flaws in Oracle E-Business Suite and Progress Kemp LoadMaster, a Citrix NetScaler memory disclosure flaw exploited within 24 hours of disclosure, a North Korean supply-chain campaign (PolinRider) deploying 108 malicious packages, and a proof-of-concept browser-native ransomware generated by an LLM abusing Chrome's File System Access API.

CVE-2026-8037 is a pre-authentication Remote Code Execution vulnerability in Progress Kemp LoadMaster caused by an uninitialized heap buffer and missing null terminator in the escape_quotes() function. When the API is enabled, an unauthenticated attacker can send a crafted POST request to /accessv2 with JSON key/value pairs that spray command injection payloads onto the heap, then use single-quote expansion in the apiuser field to overwrite adjacent allocator metadata, causing the unescaped payload to be read and executed via system().
