<p>CISA has added one new vulnerability to its <a href="https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog">Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) Catalog</a>, based on evidence of active exploitation. </p> <ul type="disc"> <li><a href="https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-0300" target="_blank">CVE-2026-0300</a> Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS Out-of-bounds Write Vulnerability</li> </ul> <p>This type of vulnerability is a frequent attack vector for malicious cyber actors and poses significant risks to the federal enterprise.</p> <p><a href="https://www.cisa.gov/binding-operational-directive-22-01">Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 22-01: Reducing the Significant Risk of Known Exploited Vulnerabilities</a> established the KEV Catalog as a living list of known Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) that carry significant risk to the federal enterprise. BOD 22-01 requires Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) agencies to remediate identified vulnerabilities by the due date to protect FCEB networks against active threats. See the <a href="https://www.cisa.gov/sites/default/files/publications/Reducing_the_Significant_Risk_of_Known_Exploited_Vulnerabilities_211103.pdf">BOD 22-01 Fact Sheet</a> for more information. </p> <p>Although BOD 22-01 only applies to FCEB agencies, CISA strongly urges all organizations to reduce their exposure to cyberattacks by prioritizing timely remediation of <a href="https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog">KEV Catalog vulnerabilities</a> as part of their vulnerability management practice. CISA will continue to add vulnerabilities to the catalog that meet the <a href="https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities">specified criteria</a>. </p>
