January 2026 Intelligence Snapshot

Top Observed Access Types

Fortinet VPN
30.6%
Windows RDP
19.4%
SSO Services
16.7%
SonicWall VPN
11.1%
RD Web
8.3%

Implications for Enterprise Infrastructure

The Primary Target: VPN appliances remain the dominant monetization target for threat actors.
The Rising Threat: Identity-layer compromise (specifically SSO) is rapidly increasing in relevance.
The Lateral Enabler: RDP exposure continues to be the primary vehicle for lateral network movement.
The Perimeter Risk: Network-edge devices are consistently prioritized by Initial Access Brokers (IABs).

Active Exploitation Spotlight:

Fortinet

Vulnerability: CVE-2024-55591
(Authentication Bypass)

Dark Web Observations:

  • -IABs are claiming active exploitation in the wild.
  • -Intercepted screenshots suggest actors are achieving admin account creation directly via the FortiOS interface.
  • -Historically linked to major ransomware operations, including Qilin and Mora_001.
  • -Remains a highly discussed exploit throughout January 2026.

Broader CVE Exploitation Chatter

Actors discussed or offered exploitation involving:

CVE-2025-20354
(Cisco)
CVE-2025-55182
(React/Next.js – Pre-auth RCE)
CVE-2025-62215
(Windows Kernel LPE)
CVE-2024-3400
(Palo Alto PAN-OS)
CVE-2025-58034 / 64446
(Fortinet FortiWeb)

Identified Actor Attack Patterns

Target Profile: The vast majority of focus is on unauthenticated, network-exposed vulnerabilities.
Tooling: Public Proof of Concepts (PoCs) are frequently and rapidly leveraged.
Strategy: Actors favor opportunistic exploitation over deploying novel zero-days.
Market Dynamics: Despite specific CVE chatter, there is no proportional overall spike in exploit-based access listings on the market.

Continuous Offensive Posture

Infiltrate. Intervene.
Intercept.
