Critical Privilege Escalation and RCE Flaws Addressed in Zoom and Xerox Products

CVE-2025-5086, a critical deserialization flaw in Dassault Systèmes DELMIA Apriso Manufacturing Operations Management (MOM) software, is being actively exploited. The vulnerability, with a CVSS score of 9.0, affects versions from Release 2020 through Release 2025. Exploitation attempts have been observed, targeting the /apriso/WebServices/FlexNetOperationsService.svc/Invoke endpoint with a Base64-encoded payload. The payload decodes to a GZIP-compressed Windows executable that deploys a malicious program designed to spy on user activities. The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has added the flaw to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, advising Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) agencies to apply updates by October 2, 2025. The malware, identified as Trojan.MSIL.Zapchast.gen, captures keyboard input, takes screenshots, and gathers information about active applications. This information is then sent to the attacker via various means, including email, FTP, and HTTP. The exploit involves sending a malicious SOAP request to vulnerable endpoints. The malicious requests were observed originating from the IP 156.244.33[.]162.

A flaw in the Cursor AI code editor allows malicious repositories to execute arbitrary code automatically when opened. This vulnerability can lead to malware installation, environment hijacking, and credential theft. Cursor, an AI-powered IDE based on Visual Studio Code, disables the Workspace Trust feature by default, allowing this behavior. The flaw affects one million users who generate over a billion lines of code daily. Cursor developers have decided not to fix the issue, citing the need to maintain AI and other features. The vulnerability is part of a broader trend of prompt injections and jailbreaks affecting AI-powered coding and reasoning agents, which can embed malicious instructions to perform harmful actions or leak data.

Microsoft released updates for 80 vulnerabilities on September 2025 Patch Tuesday. None of these vulnerabilities were zero-days. The updates address eight critical flaws, including five remote code execution vulnerabilities, one information disclosure, and two elevation of privilege vulnerabilities. The vulnerabilities span various categories: 38 elevation of privilege, 2 security feature bypass, 22 remote code execution, 14 information disclosure, 3 denial of service, and 1 spoofing. One zero-day vulnerability was fixed in Windows SMB Server. The updates also include hardening features for SMB Server to mitigate relay attacks, with recommendations for administrators to enable auditing. The patch includes 38 elevation of privilege vulnerabilities, the highest number among all categories. CVE-2025-54918 is an EoP vulnerability in Windows NT LAN Manager (NTLM) marked as critical. CVE-2025-54111 and CVE-2025-54913 are EoP flaws in Windows UI XAML, allowing privilege escalation via phished credentials or malicious Microsoft Store apps. CVE-2025-55232 is an RCE vulnerability in the Microsoft High Performance Compute (HPC) Pack with a CVSS score of 9.8. CVE-2025-54916 is an RCE vulnerability in Windows NTFS that can be triggered by authenticated users. Microsoft's patch update includes recommendations for preparing for the end-of-life of Windows 10 and mandatory multifactor authentication (MFA) for Azure in October 2025.

Adobe has patched a critical vulnerability (CVE-2025-54236) in its Commerce and Magento Open Source platforms, dubbed SessionReaper. The flaw could allow unauthenticated attackers to take control of customer accounts via the Commerce REST API. The vulnerability was disclosed to selected customers on September 4, 2025, with a patch released on September 9, 2025. Adobe Commerce on Cloud users were protected by a WAF rule until the patch was available. The flaw is considered one of the most severe in the history of the platform, potentially leading to session forging, privilege escalation, and code execution. No exploitation in the wild has been reported, but a hotfix was leaked, which could accelerate exploitation attempts. The vulnerability impacts various versions of Adobe Commerce, Adobe Commerce B2B, Magento Open Source, and the Custom Attributes Serializable module. Adobe has also patched a critical path traversal vulnerability in ColdFusion (CVE-2025-54261).

SAP has fixed 21 vulnerabilities, including three critical flaws in its NetWeaver software. The most severe, CVE-2025-42944, is an insecure deserialization flaw allowing unauthenticated remote code execution. The second critical flaw, CVE-2025-42922, enables arbitrary file uploads by authenticated users. The third, CVE-2025-42958, allows unauthorized access to sensitive data and administrative functions. The vulnerabilities affect various SAP products, including ERP, CRM, SRM, and SCM, which are widely used in large enterprise networks. The flaws could lead to full system compromise and unauthorized data manipulation. SAP products are frequently targeted by threat actors due to their handling of mission-critical data. A high-severity missing input validation bug in SAP S/4HANA (CVE-2025-42916) could allow an attacker with high privilege access to delete the content of arbitrary database tables. A critical security defect in SAP S/4HANA (CVE-2025-42957) has come under active exploitation in the wild.
