⚠️ Si vous administrez ou connaissez quelqu’un qui administre un ou des hébergements avec cPanel & WHM, attention : la vulnérabilité critique CVE-2026-41940 ( https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/CVE-2026-41940 ) permets à un attaquant distant de contourner l’authentification et d’obtenir un accès administrateur sans identifiants.
L’exploitation se fait via les interfaces HTTPS exposées, sans interaction utilisateur, ce qui en fait un risque immédiat pour les serveurs accessibles depuis Internet.Ce type de faille est particulièrement recherché par les cybercriminels et par certaines APT gravitant autour de la Russie : prise de contrôle d’hébergements, déploiement de webshells, détournement de domaines, modification DNS/mail, vol de données ou rebond vers d’autres systèmes.
À corriger en priorité : appliquez les versions corrigées, limitez l’accès à cPanel/WHM via VPN ou allowlist IP, et vérifiez les journaux d’accès.
