Attackers Exploit VMware vCenter Vulnerability to Gain Persistent Remote Access
Attackers are actively exploiting CVE-2026-59310, a critical directory-traversal vulnerability in Broadcom VMware vCenter with a CVSS score of 9.8. The flaw allows remote code execution for network-adjacent threat actors. Patches have been released, though the article text is incomplete.
Why it matters: VMware vCenter administrators must immediately patch or restrict network access to vCenter instances, as active exploitation enables attackers to gain persistent remote access and potentially compromise virtualized infrastructure.
