CVE-2026-20128Credential Disclosure in Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN Manager Data Collection AgentExploited in the wild

Cisco Talos said it observed multiple threat clusters exploiting CVE-2026-20133, CVE-2026-20128, and CVE-2026-20122 beginning March 2026. The three vulnerabilities, when chained together, can allow a remote unauthenticated attacker to gain unauthorized access to the device. They were added to the CISA's KEV catalog last month. The activity has been found to leverage publicly available proof-of-concept exploit code to deploy web shells on hacked systems.

MITRE ATT&CK

Techniques & procedures

5 distinct techniques documented for this family, organized by ATT&CK tactic.

Execution

1 technique
T1059Command and Scripting InterpreterEvidence1

Multiple post-exploitation tooling clusters have been identified, including deployments of Godzilla webshell, AdaptixC2, Sliver C2, XMRig miners, the KScan asset mapping tool, a NimPlant-based Nim backdoor

Credential Access

1 technique
T1110Brute ForceEvidence1

It can perform automatic brute-force cracking and brute-force RDP.

Discovery

2 techniques
T1046Network Service DiscoveryEvidence1

The first tool is KScan, an asset mapping tool, that can port scan, TCP fingerprint, capture banners for specified assets, and obtain as much port information as possible without sending more packets.

T1082System Information DiscoveryEvidence1

Cluster 8 ... deploys the KScan asset mapping tool and Nim-based backdoor that's likely based on NimPlant and comes with capabilities to perform file operations, execute files using bash, and collect system information

Lateral Movement

1 technique
T1021.001Remote Desktop ProtocolEvidence1

It can perform automatic brute-force cracking and brute-force RDP.
