One Request, Total Persistence: Inside the SharePoint Flaw Attackers Are Exploiting

A critical SharePoint deserialization flaw, CVE-2026-50522 (CVSS 9.8), is under active exploitation just weeks after its July 2026 patch, following a public PoC. Attackers are using it to steal IIS machine keys in a single request, gaining persistence that survives patching alone. Now on CISA's KEV list, it's the third actively exploited SharePoint flaw in recent months, patch immediately and rotate machine keys.
