CISA Adds Three Actively Exploited Vulnerabilities to KEV Catalog Affecting Langflow, Apache Tomcat and N-central

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency has added three known exploited vulnerabilities to its KEV catalog, urging federal agencies to apply patches by August 7, 2026. CVE-2026-9198 affects the AI application development platform Langflow and allows unauthenticated attackers to chain API calls, obtain tokens, and execute arbitrary code. CVE-2026-34486 impacts Apache Tomcat and enables bypass of the EncryptInterceptor, leaving cluster node communications unencrypted. CVE-2026-18556 in N-able N-central permits authentication bypass through alternate channels, while an incomplete fix introduced CVE-2026-18577, which was added to the catalog one day earlier. All three issues have confirmed exploitation in the wild.

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has added three actively exploited vulnerabilities to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, warning organizations to remediate them immediately.

The vulnerabilities added on August 4, 2026, are CVE-2026-9198, CVE-2026-34486, and CVE-2026-18556. Federal agencies have until August 7, 2026, to apply mitigations.

CVE-2026-9198 in Langflow

CVE-2026-9198 is a code injection flaw in Langflow, an open-source platform used to build AI applications. Attackers can chain API requests without authentication to obtain tokens and execute arbitrary code on affected systems.

CVE-2026-34486 in Apache Tomcat

CVE-2026-34486 affects Apache Tomcat. Successful exploitation allows attackers to bypass the EncryptInterceptor mechanism responsible for encrypting traffic between cluster nodes, potentially exposing data in transit.

CVE-2026-18556 and CVE-2026-18577 in N-central

CVE-2026-18556 impacts N-able N-central, an IT operations management platform. The flaw permits authentication bypass via alternate channels. An incomplete remediation for this issue led to the discovery of CVE-2026-18577, which was added to the KEV catalog on August 3, 2026.

Security teams are advised to review the official CISA KEV catalog and apply vendor patches without delay.
