What happened
CISA is urging immediate patching of a recently resolved zero-day in the LiteSpeed cPanel plugin that was exploited in the wild to execute scripts with root privileges. Organizations running the affected plugin should apply the vendor update immediately, hunt for signs of compromise (web shells, unauthorized root activity, suspicious scripts), and review logs and backups for evidence of exploitation.
