About Sick Tdc-X401gl Firmware
CVE-2026-22908 affects Sick Tdc-X401gl Firmware, a product from Sick. Before acting, confirm where Sick Tdc-X401gl Firmware runs in your estate, who owns it and whether it is reachable from the internet, because exposure decides real risk more than the score alone.
What the flaw is
In plain terms: Uploading unvalidated container images may allow remote attackers to gain full access to the system, potentially compromising its integrity and confidentiality.
Based on its CVSS vector, the flaw can be reached over the network, needs some level of access, and needs no user interaction. Apply the vendor fix and confirm exposure on internet facing and business critical assets first.

The device is deployed with weak and publicly known default passwords for certain hidden user levels, increasing the risk of unauthorized access. This represents a high risk to the integrity of the system.
Certain system functions may be accessed without proper authorization, allowing attackers to start, stop, or delete installed applications, potentially disrupting system operations.
An attacker may gain unauthorized access to the host filesystem, potentially allowing them to read and modify system data.
LiteSpeed User-End cPanel Plugin before 2.4.5 allows privilege escalation (possibly to root), as exploited in the wild in May 2026. Detection is best done via a command line of grep -rE "cpanel_jsonapi_func=redisAble" /var/cpanel/logs /usr/local/cpanel/logs/ 2>/dev/null in Bash. If you get no output, you have not been hit with exploitation of the vulnerability. If there is output, we recommend you examine the IP addresses in the list, determine if they are valid IP addresses, and if not, block them. To determine damage done, examine the system logs for use by the detected IP addresses. The issue is related to mishandling of Redis enable/disable features. The recommended minimum version is 2.4.7.
An incorrect privilege assignment vulnerability exists in Esri Portal for ArcGIS 11.5 in Windows and Linux that allows highly privileged users to create developer credentials that may grant more privileges than expected.
A flaw was found in FreeIPA. When a trust relationship is configured between FreeIPA and Active Directory, Active Directory users can bypass authentication for FreeIPA services, including the portal, SMB server, and LDAP directory. This is possible by impersonating a client name in the Ticket Granting Service (TGS) due to FreeIPA services not verifying Privilege Attribute Certificate (PAC) certificates. This vulnerability could allow an authenticated Active Directory user to escalate their privileges within the FreeIPA domain.
