Ivanti EPMM Zero-Day RCE: CVE-2026-1281 and CVE-2026-1340
On-premises Ivanti EPMM was open to unauthenticated remote command execution, exploited before disclosure and with a public PoC a day later; patch, confirm the RPM survived any later upgrade, and hunt for compromise.
Must act: Every organization running on-premises Ivanti Endpoint Manager Mobile (EPMM) 12.5, 12.6 or 12.7, especially where the server is internet-facing, as it normally is for device enrollment.
Can relax: Organizations that don't run on-premises EPMM; this brief covers the EPMM server only.
- Identify every on-premises EPMM appliance and its version.
- Apply the Ivanti security update RPM that matches your release line, using the latest revision Ivanti lists.
- After any EPMM version upgrade, confirm the RPM fix is still in place or reapply it; watchTowr reports the RPM does not persist.
