CISA Mandates Remediation for Actively Exploited GitLab and Cisco Vulnerabilities

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has set a November 1, 2026, deadline for federal civilian agencies to address critical vulnerabilities in GitLab and Cisco software. These flaws, including a GitLab remote code execution and a Cisco denial-of-service vulnerability, are actively being exploited in the wild, necessitating urgent remediation to protect government systems.
