Critical CVEs (NVD)

CVE CVSS Description (NVD)
CVE-2026-97785 10 Improper authentication in AAD App Proxy allows an unauthorized attacker to elevate privileges over a network.

CVE-2026-110063 10 Improper link resolution before file access ('link following') in VM Inspector for Azure Virtual Machines allows an unauthorized attacker to elevate privileges over a network.
CVE-2026-115384 9.9 Wasmtime 39.0.0 before 48.0.4 and 49.0.0 before 49.0.2 contains a stack buffer overflow vulnerability that allows malicious guests to write ~16KB to the native stack via unvalidated async callback result types. Attackers can supply components with mistyped component-model-async callback functions to overwrite return addresses, crashing the host or escaping the sandbox.
CVE-2026-115375 9.9 Incus 7.0.0 before 7.0.2 and 7.1.0 before 7.5.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows clients able to create instances to write files on the host.
