Over 21,000 unpatched Exchange servers expose critical SYSTEM-level flaw

A critical security vulnerability in Microsoft Exchange servers allows attackers to bypass authentication and achieve SYSTEM-level remote code execution. The flaw, tracked as CVE-2026-62911, affects Exchange Server 2016, 2019, and SE versions. In September 2026, over 21,800 internet-facing servers remained unpatched, primarily in the United States and Germany.
