CVE-2026-58644: Microsoft SharePoint Deserialization of Untrusted Data Vulnerability

Should you act?

Exploited: patch now if you run it

CISA has confirmed exploitation in the wild. This signal is computed from CISA KEV, EPSS and CVSS data; it is not an editorial verdict.

• Yes, if you run Microsoft SharePoint. CISA added this CVE to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on 2026-07-16, which means there is reliable evidence of exploitation in the wild. US federal agencies must remediate by 2026-07-19; treat that as the outer limit, not the target.
• EPSS 15.9%, percentile 97: FIRST’s model estimates a 15.9% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 97% of all scored CVEs (very high). EPSS is a probability, not a verdict.
• Remotely reachable with no login and no user interaction. If the vulnerable service is exposed to the internet, prioritize it.
• Editorial verdict: Act now. SharePoint: Four July-August 2026 Flaws Now Exploited — Any on-premises SharePoint farm not yet on the August 2026 builds is exposed to exploited bugs with public exploit code; patch, rotate machine keys and check for compromise now.
