Why: If your company or a client runs SonicWall SMA 1000 appliances on versions 12.4.3-03453 or older / 12.5.0-02835 or older, patch now and check for IoCs — SonicWall advises re-imaging the appliance, rotating all credentials, and resetting TOTP if compromise is found.

Attackers Exploit Two SonicWall SMA 1000 Zero-Days That May Form an Attack Chain

SonicWall patched two actively exploited zero-days in its SMA 1000 series VPN appliances (models 6210, 7210, 8200v): CVE-2026-83548 (CVSS 10.0, pre-auth SSRF) and CVE-2026-83549 (CVSS 7.8, post-auth OS command injection). Attackers are likely chaining both to achieve remote code execution. Fixes are in platform-hotfix versions 12.4.3-03526 and 12.5.0-02952; older versions are vulnerable.
