An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: Yes. Attackers have exploited CVE-2026-76460 in the wild since at least 16 Sep 2026.\n\nAffected product: Cisco Identity Services Engine. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-76460/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-76460/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-76460","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-76460/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-76460","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-25wc-3w28-q6vw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["security_bypass","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cisco Identity Services Engine","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated remote attackers can bypass authentication on Cisco ISE API endpoints to gain unauthorized access to the management interface.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"identity_services_engine","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"identity_services_engine_passive_identity_connector","vendor":"cisco"}],"cvss":{"score":10,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-648","name":"Incorrect Use of Privileged APIs"}],"description":"A vulnerability in an API of Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to bypass authentication.\r\n\r\nThis vulnerability is due to insufficient authentication control on an API endpoint.
