Overview

Ivanti disclosed and patched two critical Ivanti Endpoint Manager Mobile (EPMM) vulnerabilities (CVE-2026-1281 and CVE-2026-1340) described as code injection issues. Reporting indicates exploitation occurred prior to disclosure, with CVE-2026-1281 confirmed exploited in the wild and subsequently added to CISA’s Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, increasing urgency for organizations running EPMM to apply updates and assess exposure.

  • CISA added CVE-2026-1281 to the KEV catalog shortly after disclosure
  • Multiple outlets are flagging active exploitation and patch availability
Why it matters
  • Confirmed exploitation raises immediate compromise risk for unpatched EPMM deployments
  • KEV inclusion is a strong signal to prioritize remediation
  • Code injection flaws can enable remote compromise in affected environments
