The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has issued a warning about a data-theft vulnerability, CVE-2026-6807, affecting GrassMarlin, a network security tool developed by the NSA. This flaw, stemming from insufficient hardening of XML parsing, allows attackers to potentially exfiltrate sensitive information. As GrassMarlin reached its end-of-life in 2017, no official patches are available, and CISA recommends general security best practices for critical infrastructure and industrial control systems. AI
