What to check
- Applies to
- The 2 CVEs named below. Whether you run an affected version is not assessed: check the versions the source lists.
- Exploitation
- No exploitation in the wild and no public exploit is recorded for the CVEs named.
ANSSI (CERT-FR) published an advisory relaying a SonicWall security bulletin (SNWLID-2026-0013) describing multiple vulnerabilities in the NetExtender Linux Client affecting versions prior to 10.3.6. The flaws allow an attacker to circumvent the client's security policy controls, potentially undermining VPN access restrictions or endpoint compliance checks enforced by the client.
No evidence of active exploitation is noted in the advisory. Two CVEs are referenced: CVE-2026-66152 and CVE-2026-66153. Organizations using SonicWall NetExtender Linux Client should consult the vendor bulletin and update to version 10.3.6 or later to remediate the security policy bypass issue.

What this brief leaves out
This page is the free tier: the write-up, the severity, the names. In the app the same report carries live profiles of the CVEs it names. The paid plans add the security research and news reporting the free tier leaves out.
It sits in a corpus of 16,433 reports from 149 sources, 661 of them written in the last seven days, and it grows through the day.
A new account starts with three days of all of it, no card, then keeps the government and CERT reporting free. Slack alerts are a paid-plan feature: name the vendors you run and Slack hears about the reports that touch them, not the rest of the week's. Nothing is charged unless you subscribe.
