Questions about CVE-2026-77799
Is CVE-2026-77799 being exploited?
It is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, and CISA's SSVC assessment does not mark exploitation as active. That does not mean it has not been attacked: vendors and researchers can report attacks before CISA lists them. No public exploit code is tracked.Source: cve.now feed data
What does this mean?
An attacker who already has valid login credentials can sign in without providing the second authentication factor. The resulting session carries that user's role and access.Source: manageengine.com
Which versions are affected by CVE-2026-77799?
ManageEngine Key Manager Plus: before 7151.Source: cve.now feed data
Am I affected, and how do I check?
All Key Manager Plus builds until 7150 are listed as affected, but only when two-factor authentication is enabled. Check the build number in the product and whether two-factor authentication is turned on for accounts.Source: manageengine.com
How do I fix CVE-2026-77799?
Upgrade Key Manager Plus to build 7151 or later, which the affected range lists as the fixed version.Source: manageengine.com
