Welcome to our LGA Monthly Security Bytes!
Here, you’ll find bite-sized security developments and practical insights to help you stay ahead of day-to-day security operations.
Over the past month, multiple internet-exploitable vulnerabilities across security monitoring, workflow automation, IoT and API management platforms have been disclosed, many with CVSS scores of 9.8-10.0, and public exploit code enabling rapid, unauthenticated attacks.
We also observed that attackers are increasingly abusing exposed management and monitoring systems, making operational platforms a primary attack path.
Without strict access control, continuous visibility and early detection, trusted systems quickly become high-impact liabilities.
Several affected platforms operate in internet-facing or high-privilege environments, elevating the risk of unauthenticated remote exploitation if unpatched.
The affected platforms include Advantech IoTSuite and IoT Edge, Fortinet FortiSIEM, and IBM API Connect, spanning multiple versions.
Users and administrators are strongly advised to apply vendor-released fixes promptly and review exposure of these systems to untrusted networks.

1. Unauthenticated exploitation is now the dominant risk
Attackers are increasingly compromising critical platforms without credentials, making any internet-facing system a high-impact target by default.
2. Trusted platforms have become primary targets
Security, monitoring, IoT and API systems are being targeted precisely because of their elevated privileges and central role in operations.
