Dell Fixes 70 Vulnerabilities in VSI for VMware vSphere Including Two Critical Flaws

Dell has released an update addressing 70 vulnerabilities in Dell Virtual Storage Integrator for VMware vSphere Client, two of which are product-specific and rated critical. The advisory published on August 6, 2026, covers both native issues and flaws inherited from third-party components. CVE-2026-67261 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary OS commands with root privileges via the IAPI component. CVE-2026-54489 enables session hijacking by exposing active session credentials without authentication. The product integrates Dell storage arrays with VMware vSphere environments and is widely used in enterprise virtualization deployments. Administrators are urged to apply the latest version immediately to mitigate the risks of full system compromise and unauthorized administrative access.

Dell has issued a security update that resolves 70 vulnerabilities in Dell Virtual Storage Integrator for VMware vSphere Client (VSI), including two critical flaws unique to the product.

The software provides integration and management capabilities between VMware vSphere environments and Dell storage solutions. On August 6, 2026, Dell published security advisory DSA-2026-335, classifying the overall severity as Critical, the highest level in its four-tier rating system.

Two vulnerabilities are specific to VSI. CVE-2026-67261 is an OS command injection flaw in the IAPI component. It permits remote attackers to execute arbitrary operating system commands with root privileges on the underlying host without requiring authentication.

The second issue, CVE-2026-54489, is an information disclosure vulnerability that exposes active session credentials. Attackers can obtain these credentials remotely without authentication, hijack sessions, and impersonate any authenticated user, including administrators.

The remaining vulnerabilities originate from third-party software components bundled with the product. Dell recommends that all users apply the latest available version of VSI without delay.

Telegram for Android Patches Voice Call Vulnerability Enabling Code Execution

Security researchers at NebuSec disclosed a vulnerability in Telegram for Android that allowed remote code execution after a victim answered a voice call. The flaw affected versions from 8.6.2 through 12.10.3 and was fixed in release 12.10.4 at the end of September. The issue stemmed from improper handling of MediaState service messages that carry microphone, camera, and video rotation data during calls. When a required field was missing, the application accessed invalid memory. NebuSec discovered the bug using its Code Security product running on a GPT-5.4 model and confirmed exploitation on ARM64 Android devices for personal calls. A demonstration showed the string “HACKED BY NEBUSEC” appearing roughly 30 seconds after the call was accepted. The vulnerability is unrelated to the earlier animated-sticker attack vector.

Yandex Patches Millions of Stations After eMudhra Certificate Keys Compromised

Yandex has automatically deployed security updates to millions of its smart speakers and partner televisions running YaOS between October 21 and 23. The patches address compromised intermediate certificates issued by eMudhra whose private keys consisted of trivial values from 1 to 255. Attackers who obtained these keys could generate fraudulent certificates and perform man-in-the-middle attacks against device HTTPS traffic. Enthusiasts demonstrated that local network control combined with the certificates allowed replacement of server configuration, activation of ADB, and acquisition of root access on the devices. The update removes trust in the affected certificates, overwrites compromised system files, and disables the debug interface. A factory reset restores the vulnerable firmware, so Yandex advises against resets without a compelling reason.

Cisco ASA and FTD Face DoS Vulnerability in SSL VPN Already Exploited in the Wild

Cisco Systems has disclosed a denial-of-service vulnerability affecting its Cisco Secure Firewall ASA and Cisco Secure Firewall FTD products. The flaw, tracked as CVE-2026-76418, resides in the SSL VPN remote access feature and carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.6, rated High severity. Exploitation occurs when secondary authentication is configured on tunnel groups, allowing an attacker to send a crafted request that forces a device reboot without requiring authentication. Cisco confirmed active exploitation of the issue in October 2026. Security updates addressing the vulnerability are now available for both affected product lines. The advisory recommends immediate application of the patches to prevent service disruption.
