Lyrics

[Verse 1]
SharePoint's got a crack in the fortress wall
CVE-2026-55040, authentication falls
Microsoft's platform, network attackers creep
Bypass the security, no credentials they need
A ghost walking through a locked building free
Weak auth means the gatekeeper's asleep

[Verse 2]
Apple macOS, Screen Sharing's compromised
CVE-2026-65400, attackers unauthorized
Sit across the network, no password required
Improper authentication, your desktop acquired
Imagine someone watching through your window pane
Never knocked, never asked — still inside your domain

[Chorus]
Vulnerabilidades, atenção agora
CVEs críticos, a ameaça não demora
Patch it before the wolves are at the door
Segurança falha — you cannot ignore
Corrija agora — lock it to the core

[Verse 3]
Ray-Project, CVE-2025-62593
Code injection baked into a developer's dream
Remote execution if an attacker strikes through Fire
Developers building on Ray — your toolchain's under wire
The scaffold you're standing on has termites in the grain
What looks like solid ground is crumbling to the frame

[Verse 4]
Firefox hit with CVE-2026-74936
Use-after-free, the memory's a paradox
WebAssembly component, JavaScript's the vector
CVSS nine-point-eight — severity detector
Memory freed but referenced, the engine gets confused
Firefox 154 patches the fuse

[Chorus]
Vulnerabilidades, atenção agora
CVEs críticos, a ameaça não demora
Patch it before the wolves are at the door
Segurança falha — you cannot ignore
Corrija agora — lock it to the core

[Verse 5]
Defenders on the front line, tired eyes and coffee cups
Scanning logs at midnight, chasing threats before they erupt
Every CVE published is a race against the clock
Attackers read the same advisories — they don't wait to knock
The patch cadence matters, zero-day becomes known
Leave one system lagging and you're rolling the stone

[Bridge]
Four CVEs, August vinte e três
SharePoint's weak handshake, macOS's open face
Ray injecting code from a distant attacker's place
Firefox use-after-free — nine-eight CVSS case
Update your systems, não espere mais
The window for exploitation doesn't wait

[Chorus]
Vulnerabilidades, atenção agora
CVEs críticos, a ameaça não demora
Patch it before the wolves are at the door
Segurança falha — you cannot ignore
Corrija agora — lock it to the core

[Outro]
Thunderbird caught it too, same Firefox flaw
ESR 140-dot-14 sealing up the raw
Every unpatched system is a creditor's debt
August 23 — don't collect regret
Conserte o sistema — before the breach is set

[Chorus]
Vulnerabilidades, atenção agora
CVEs críticos, a ameaça não demora
Patch it before the wolves are at the door
Segurança falha — you cannot ignore
Corrija agora — lock it to the core
