Searchlight Cyber researchers disclosed a critical pre-authentication remote code execution vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2026-6875, in the ServiceNow AI Platform on July 14. The same day, ServiceNow released patches for self-hosted instances. Since July 17, attackers have started exploiting it in the wild.
“After finding our first pre-auth critical bug almost two years ago and having a much better understanding of the ServiceNow architecture, we decided to return and focus our efforts on a different corner of the codebase.” reads the report published by Searchlight Cyber. “Our efforts led to us finding a completely unauthenticated RCE, which allowed full compromise of the ServiceNow instance as well as all connected proxy servers.”
