By Sergiu Gatlan

F5 released out-of-band patches for two critical vulnerabilities in NGINX Open Source, including CVE-2026-42530 (CVSS v4: 9.2), a use-after-free flaw in the ngx_http_v3_module exploitable by remote unauthenticated attackers for arbitrary code execution. Given NGINX's ubiquity as a web server and reverse proxy, security teams should prioritize patching immediately.
