Cisco has released software updates that address these vulnerabilities. There are no workarounds that address these vulnerabilities. This advisory is part of a group of advisories. For a complete list of the advisories and links to them, see Cisco Advance Notification for Publication of September 16, 2026, Security Advisories. In addition, for further documentation of improvements and fixes in Cisco Identity Services Engine, see Cisco Identity Services Engine Security Hardening Release: September 2026. Affected product named by the advisory: Identity Services Engine Software.
Critical [CVE-2026-20282 +2] Cisco Identity Services Engine Authenticated Remote Code Execution and API Vulnerabilities
Multiple vulnerabilities in Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to conduct SQL injections, modify data, or execute arbitrary commands on the underlying operating system on an affected device. For more information about these vulnerabilities, see the Details section of this advisory. Note: For CVE-2026-20282 and CVE-2026-20283, Cisco has assigned a Security Impact Rating (SIR) of High rather than Medium as the scores indicate. The reason is that it is easy to get to root from the achieved privilege level. Cisco has released software updates that address these vulnerabilities. There are workarounds that address one of these vulnerabilities. This advisory is part of a group of advisories.

Critical [CVE-2026-20130 +5] Cisco Identity Services Engine Hardening Release: September 2026
As part of Cisco's ongoing commitment to proactive security and product quality, the Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) and Cisco ISE Passive Identity Connector (ISE-PIC) engineering teams have conducted a comprehensive internal security review. This review resulted in software hardening releases that address multiple internally discovered vulnerabilities. These vulnerabilities were found during internal testing. One of them is known to be actively exploited. For more information, see Cisco Identity Services Engine Authentication Bypass Vulnerability. To assist customers in patching and streamline the disclosure process, Cisco has grouped these issues by their underlying vulnerability class — Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) — and assigned a single Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures identifier (CVE ID) to each CWE grouping. Cisco has released software updates that address these vulnerabilities. There are no workarounds that address these vulnerabilities. This advisory is part of a group of advisories. For a complete list of the advisories and links to them, see Cisco Advance Notification for Publication of September 16, 2026, Security Advisories. Affected products named by the advisory: Identity Services Engine Software.
Critical [CVE-2026-20305 +1] Cisco Identity Services Engine Command Injection Vulnerabilities
Multiple vulnerabilities in Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) and Cisco ISE Passive Identity Connector (ISE-PIC) could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to perform command injection attacks on an affected device and execute arbitrary commands as the root user. To exploit these vulnerabilities, the attacker must have valid administrative credentials. For more information about these vulnerabilities, see the Details section of this advisory. Cisco has released software updates that address these vulnerabilities. There are no workarounds that address these vulnerabilities. This advisory is part of a group of advisories. For a complete list of the advisories and links to them, see Cisco Advance Notification for Publication of September 16, 2026, Security Advisories.

Affected products named by the advisory: Identity Services Engine Software.
Critical [CVE-2026-76460] Cisco Identity Services Engine Authentication Bypass Vulnerability
A vulnerability in an API of Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to bypass authentication. This vulnerability is due to insufficient authentication control on an API endpoint. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted request to an affected API endpoint. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to gain unauthorized access to the affected device by bypassing the web-based management interface. Cisco has released software updates that address this vulnerability. There are no workarounds that address this vulnerability. This advisory is part of a group of advisories. For a complete list of the advisories and links to them, see Cisco Advance Notification for Publication of September 16, 2026, Security Advisories. In addition, for further documentation of improvements and fixes in Cisco Identity Services Engine, see Cisco Identity Services Engine Security Hardening Release: September 2026. Affected products named by the advisory: ISE Passive Identity Connector; Identity Services Engine Software.
Critical [CVE-2026-20181 +1] Cisco Identity Services Engine Remote Code Execution and Information Disclosure Vulnerabilities
Multiple vulnerabilities in Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) and Cisco ISE Passive Identity Connector (ISE-PIC) could allow a remote attacker to achieve remote code execution or conduct information disclosure attacks on an affected device. For more information about these vulnerabilities, see the Details section of this advisory. Cisco has released software updates that address these vulnerabilities. There are no workarounds that address these vulnerabilities. Affected products named by the advisory: Identity Services Engine Software.
Critical [CVE-2026-20147 +1] Cisco Identity Services Engine Remote Code Execution and Path Traversal Vulnerabilities
Multiple vulnerabilities in Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) and Cisco ISE Passive Identity Connector (ISE-PIC) could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to achieve remote code execution or conduct path traversal attacks on an affected device. To exploit these vulnerabilities, the attacker must have valid administrative credentials. For more information about these vulnerabilities, see the Details section of this advisory. Cisco has released software updates that address these vulnerabilities. There are no workarounds that address these vulnerabilities. Affected products named by the advisory: Identity Services Engine Software.
Critical [CVE-2026-20180 +1] Cisco Identity Services Engine Remote Code Execution Vulnerabilities
Multiple vulnerabilities in Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying operating system of an affected device. To exploit these vulnerabilities, the attacker must have at least Read Only Admin credentials. These vulnerabilities are due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by sending a crafted HTTP request to an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to obtain user-level access to the underlying operating system and then elevate privileges to root. In single-node Cisco ISE deployments, successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities could cause the affected ISE node to become unavailable, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition. In that condition, endpoints that have not already authenticated would be unable to access the network until the node is restored. Cisco has released software updates that address these vulnerabilities. There are no workarounds that address these vulnerabilities. Affected products named by the advisory: Identity Services Engine Software.
