What happened

Highlights from ISC SANS diary (Mar 6–12, 2026): a new vulnerability dubbed “Zombie Zip” was published as CVE-2026-0866. Microsoft’s March 2026 Patch Tuesday released fixes for 93 vulnerabilities (including 9 Chromium bugs affecting Edge and 8 rated critical); two were previously disclosed but not yet observed exploited and Microsoft reports no already-exploited issues addressed in this release. Related notes: new RFCs for Encrypted Client Hello (ECH) were published, a guest diary discusses risks when IoT devices log in as admin (default/embedded credentials), and YARA-X 1.14.0 was released.
