> A file-read vulnerability in Thermo Fisher Torrent Suite Software ≤5.18 lets attackers read arbitrary files on the Torrent Server; no exploitation observed yet.

CISA published an ICS medical advisory describing a vulnerability (CVE-2026-107777) in Thermo Fisher Torrent Suite Software, affecting all versions up to and including 5.18. Successful exploitation could allow an attacker to read arbitrary files on the Torrent Server, which could expose sensitive configuration data, credentials, or genomic/sequencing data processed by the platform. The product is used worldwide within the Healthcare and Public Health critical infrastructure sector, and the vendor is headquartered in the United States.

CISA states there is no known public exploitation of this vulnerability at this time. The advisory does not specify a patched version or vendor remediation guidance beyond CISA's standard ICS defensive recommendations: minimizing network exposure of control system devices, isolating control system networks behind firewalls separate from business networks, and using secure remote access methods such as VPNs. Organizations should also apply standard phishing and social-engineering awareness practices. The vulnerability was reported to CISA by researchers Akanksha Raghvesh and Abhinav Agarwal.

Defenders operating Torrent Suite Software should verify their version, restrict network access to the Torrent Server to trusted internal segments, and monitor for unusual file-access patterns pending vendor patch guidance, which is not detailed in this advisory.
