CISA added 7 new flaws to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) added 7 new flaws to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog.

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) this week added seven new flaws to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, including a critical SAP security vulnerability tracked as CVE-2022-22536.

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) on Thursday moved to add a critical SAP security flaw to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, based on evidence of active exploitation.

The issue in question is CVE-2022-22536, which has received the highest possible risk score of 10.0 on the CVSS vulnerability scoring system and was addressed by SAP as part of its Patch Tuesday updates for February 2022.

CISA also added the following issues to the Catalog:

CVE-2022-32893 – Apple iOS and macOS contain an out-of-bounds write vulnerability that could allow for remote code execution when processing malicious crafted web content.
CVE-2022-32894 – Apple iOS and macOS contain an out-of-bounds write vulnerability that could allow an application to execute code with kernel privileges.
CVE-2022-2856 – Google Chrome Intents allows for insufficient validation of untrusted input, causing unknown impacts. CISA will update this description if more information becomes available.
CVE-2022-21971 – Microsoft Windows Runtime contains an unspecified vulnerability which allows for remote code execution.
CVE-2022-26923 – An authenticated user could manipulate attributes on computer accounts they own or manage, and acquire a certificate from Active Directory Certificate Services that would allow for privilege escalation to SYSTEM.
CVE-2017-15944 – Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS contains multiple, unspecified vulnerabilities which can allow for remote code execution when chained.

According to Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 22-01: Reducing the Significant Risk of Known Exploited Vulnerabilities, FCEB agencies have to address the identified vulnerabilities by the due date to protect their networks against attacks exploiting the flaws in the catalog.

Experts recommend also private organizations review the Catalog and address the vulnerabilities in their infrastructure.

CISA orders federal agencies to fix these vulnerabilities by September 8, 2022.
