Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Palo Alto's firewall, standing tall at the gate,
CVE twenty-twenty-six, oh-three-two-two, don't wait,
PAN-OS catches a whisper, code slipped through the seam,
Attacker's already logged in, planting roots in the stream,
Authenticated but hungry, they twist what they send,
Root privileges granted — the whole firewall bends,
This ain't theory, that's kernel wide open and raw,
Patch the gate before the wolf walks right through the door.

[Verse 2]
Ivanti Connect Secure, wearing somebody's face,
Spoofing the handshake, slipping into your space,
CVE twenty-twenty-six, one-oh-four-nine-three-five,
No login needed, remote hands keep it alive,
They forge the token, skip what should block,
Commands run free, nobody's watching the clock,
Unauthenticated means the door was never locked,
VPN gateway bleeding — better go get it caulked.

[Chorus]
Патчі, патчі, закривай скоріш,
CVE стукає, зачиняй, не грайся,
Root недоступний, якщо ти пильний,
Апдейт сьогодні — спокій буде звичний.

[Verse 3]
Windows Shell's got a shortcut nobody signed off,
CVE twenty-twenty-six, nine-six-nine-five-one, don't scoff,
Command injection sneaking past the shield you trust,
Security feature bypassed, the network knock turns to dust,
No special access required, just a crafted request,
Attacker skips the checkpoint, strolls right past the test,
Patch Tuesday ain't a joke, it's rolling out today,
Leave that shell exposed and watch your system sway.

[Verse 4]
Flashback to an app called office-converter, small name,
Version one-oh-two, carries nine-point-eight CVSS flame,
CVE twenty-twenty, three-seven-two-eight-two on file,
generatePdf, generateHtml — functions with style,
Feed it a crafted filename, hide commands in the text,
OS command injection, the server runs what's next,
Old bug, still breathing, scanners find it today,
Legacy code lingers — that's why we audit, not just pray.

[Verse 5]
Scan your stack from edge to core, don't let the old bugs sleep,
Yesterday's zero-day is today's lesson to keep,
Trust but verify every endpoint, every single line,
Security's a rhythm you run on through time,
Logs don't lie, metrics don't forget the breach,
Train your team, close the gap, practice what you preach,
The next CVE's already coming, written in the code,
Stay ahead of the hunters walking down that road.

[Bridge]
Four doors, four different locks, same lesson underneath,
Spoofed, injected, or bypassed — attackers pick their teeth,
Root, bypass, command, injection — words but one request:
Verify your input, patch your stack, never guess.

[Chorus]
Патчі, патчі, закривай скоріш,
CVE стукає, зачиняй, не грайся,
Root недоступний, якщо ти пильний,
Апдейт сьогодні — спокій буде звичний.

[Outro]
Жовтня двадцяте, список готовий, тепер твій хід,
Patch the firewall, patch the gateway, patch the shell, patch the code,
Спокійно, впевнено — close every road.
