On November 3, 2026, the Zero Day Initiative disclosed multiple critical vulnerabilities in Quest Foglight for Databases, including six remote code execution (RCE) flaws and two local privilege escalation (LPE) vulnerabilities. The most severe RCE vulnerabilities, CVE-2026-92189 and CVE-2026-92190, allow unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code with SYSTEM privileges, posing a significant risk to enterprises. The vulnerabilities were reported between April and July 2026 and have been addressed in version 8.3 of Foglight. Organizations are urged to upgrade immediately to mitigate the risks associated with these flaws. The vulnerabilities include improper validation of user-supplied data and incorrect permission assignments, which can lead to full system compromise. The presence of unauthenticated RCE vulnerabilities significantly lowers the barrier for threat actors, making immediate action necessary for affected systems.
