Ivanti patched over a dozen Endpoint Manager flaws, including a high-severity auth bypass that let attackers steal credentials remotely.
Ivanti released patches for more than a dozen vulnerabilities in Endpoint Manager, including flaws disclosed in October 2025. The update addresses a high-severity authentication bypass, tracked as CVE-2026-1603 (CVSS score of 8.6), that attackers could exploit remotely without credentials to access and steal sensitive login information.
An authentication bypass in Ivanti Endpoint Manager before version 2024 SU5 allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to leak specific stored credential data.
“An authentication bypass in Ivanti Endpoint Manager before version 2024 SU5 allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to leak specific stored credential data.” reads the advisory.
The company also fixed a medium-severity SQL injection, tracked as CVE-2026-1602 (CVSS score of 6.5), in Ivanti Endpoint Manager.
“SQL injection in Ivanti Endpoint Manager before version 2024 SU5 allows a remote authenticated attacker to read arbitrary data from the database.” continues the advisory.
Trend Micro’s ZDI reported the flaws to Ivanti in November 2024, threat actors could exploit the bugs to escalate privileges and run code remotely.
The company said it is not aware of attacks in the wild exploiting these vulnerabilities before public disclosure.
EPM 2024 SU5 addressed both vulnerabilities.
In December, the software firm addressed a newly disclosed vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2025-10573 (CVSS score 9.6), in its Endpoint Manager (EPM) solution.
The vulnerability is a Stored XSS that could allow a remote unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary
“Stored XSS in Ivanti Endpoint Manager prior to version 2024 SU4 SR1 allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the context of an administrator session. User interaction is required.” reads the advisory.
The flaw impacts Ivanti Endpoint Manager prior to version 2024 SU4 SR1.
Netflix pioneered the idea of streaming services making their own original content, exclusive to each platform. In general, this has worked well, and shows like Stranger Things have become major tentpole hits.
On the other hand, many Netflix Originals have faded pretty quickly after release, some of them rightly so. However, there are a few I think deserve to be rediscovered, even if they are buried below an enormous mountain of other things to watch.
The OA
The OA is weird in all the right ways. I like mysterious stories that aren’t properly explained until the end, if ever, and this show fits that bill perfectly. It’s a heady mix of nonlinear storytelling blending near-death experiences, mad science, and parallel universes with a plot that’s very open to interpretation.
It’s not for everyone, but an experimental show like The OA would probably have done better if it were released today rather than all the way back in 2016. If you haven’t seen this yet, and you have a Netflix subscription, it’s worth checking out this 16-episode mind-bender.
Mindhunter
In an ocean of “true crime” content, Mindhunter stands out as an absolutely stellar dramatization of the early days of forensic psychology and criminology. The show dramatizes the early development of behavioral science within the FBI Behavioral Science Unit. The performances, the look and feel of the period-accurate scenery, and the fascinating details of how we began to understand (or misunderstand) the criminal mind are top-class.
Sadly, the show was not renewed for a third season and therefore doesn’t have a satisfying ending. It was simply too expensive, according to Netflix, but there have been rumors that series producer David Fincher might conclude the story with a trilogy of films instead. However, as of this writing, there’s no confirmation that this has been greenlit. Either way, it’s worth your time just to see the chilling portrayals of famous serial killers, some of which are Oscar-worthy.
I Am Mother
While doomscrolling Netflix, I came across I Am Mother by accident, and I’m glad I did because this 2019 Australian sci-fi thriller directed by Grant Sputore is right up my alley.
It tells the story of a robot raising a human girl in a post-apocalypse, presumably as a step to repopulating the world. However, as you might expect, revelations soon happen that cast doubt on the intentions of her robot mother. Although I Am Mother was a pretty low-budget movie, the visuals and VFX are excellent, the tense action scenes are phenomenal, and best of all, the writing is right up there with my favorite sci-fi short stories.
The Dark Crystal is a classic film for a reason, and Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance is a delightful expansion on that original movie’s world. It still has the charm and weirdness of the original’s puppet-based depiction of a far-off fantasy world, but it’s augmented with modern CG and VFX technology to produce something that’s the best of both eras.
The series is a prequel to the original movie, and it is genuinely wonderful whether you’ve seen the original or not. It was critically acclaimed and even won an Emmy, but Netflix canceled it after just one season. Again, it seems it was too expensive and too few people tuned in to watch it. I guess it’s better to make 10 reality TV slop shows that people can’t turn off than one great TV show.
Okja
Before people went crazy for South Korean content on streaming services, there was 2017’s Okja. Directed by Bong Joon Ho of Snowpiercer and Parasite fame, this movie was made right in between those two giants.
Okja is an emotional, creative, and quirky story about a young girl trying to rescue her genetically engineered “super pig” (although it always looks like a modified hippo to me). This animal has been engineered for meat production, and so, like Bong’s other major films, it’s a critique of capitalism and corporate greed, but it’s also just a damn good story that will tug at your heartstrings.
Seis Manos
Netflix has been pretty good on the original animation front, and it’s done a pretty great job bringing animation from Japan and other countries to a global audience too. Back in 2019, we got Seis Manos, which is hard to describe in a soundbite. The visual style is clearly inspired by some Japanese animation productions but also very clearly its own thing. The show was animated by Powerhouse Animation Studios, the same folks who gave us the excellent Castlevania adaptation.
The setting is Mexico, and the story revolves around supernatural creatures and events. It follows three orphans trained in martial arts who work with law enforcement to battle demons. Seis Manos is an incredibly violent, grindhouse-style story that fuses various unique influences into something interesting. It only got one season, but it’s worth your time.
