The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is giving federal agencies until Sunday to patch a vulnerability in Cisco Unified Communications Manager Server that is being actively exploited.
Identified as CVE-2026-20230, the security issue is server-side request forgery (SSRF) and has been added to the agency's catalog of Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV).
Per Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 26-04, the remediation is deemed urgent and must addressed by Sunday, June 28.
Cisco marked CVE-2026-20230 with critical severity and released a patch on June 3, warning that it could be exploited remotely and without authentication via specially crafted HTTP requests.
At the time, the company noted that a proof-of-concept exploit existed, but had found no evidence of active exploitation.
