The company alerted customers to the threat in a security advisory Thursday while also disclosing four additional high-severity vulnerabilities in the same product.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt the time of disclosure, Ivanti is aware of very limited exploitation in the wild of CVE-2026-6973, which requires authenticated administrative access to implement,\u201d a spokesperson for Ivanti said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>Ivanti did not say when the first instance of exploitation occurred, or precisely how many customers have already been impacted.<\/p>\n<p>The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency added the zero-day to its known exploited vulnerabilities catalog within hours of Ivanti\u2019s disclosure.<\/p>\n<p>The company released patches for all five vulnerabilities Thursday, including the four additional defects \u2014 CVE-2026-5787, CVE-2026-5788, CVE-2026-6973 and CVE-2026-7821 \u2014 which it said haven\u2019t been exploited in the wild.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIvanti discovered these vulnerabilities in recent weeks through internal detection processes which are supported by advanced AI, customer collaboration, and responsible disclosure,\u201d the company spokesperson said. One of the defects was discovered and responsibly reported to Ivanti by a former employee.<\/p>\n<p>The company suggested at least one of the root causes for the latest zero-day may be traced to lingering risk posed by a pair of separate, critical zero-days \u2014 CVE-2026-1281 and CVE-2026-1340 \u2014 that were exploited starting in late January.
