CERT Polska coordinated disclosure of two vulnerabilities affecting QuickCMS. CVE-2026-33384 is a session fixation flaw where a session identifier can be set prior to authentication and remains unchanged afterward, allowing an attacker to pre-set a victim's session ID and later hijack the authenticated session. CVE-2026-33386 stems from QuickCMS fetching its plugin list over insecure HTTP, enabling a man-in-the-middle attacker to impersonate the opensolution.org server and inject arbitrary HTML or JavaScript that executes automatically when a user views the plugin page, resulting in cross-site scripting.
Both issues were addressed in QuickCMS version 6.8, released May 15, 2026. Deployments that have not applied this update remain vulnerable to session hijacking and client-side script injection via the plugin-fetching mechanism. No evidence of active exploitation is indicated in the advisory; this is a coordinated disclosure with a patch already available.

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.
