Cortex XSOAR Microsoft Teams Marketplace: Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature

CVE-2026-0234 is a critical-severity improper verification of cryptographic signature vulnerability in Cortex XSOAR Microsoft Teams Marketplace from Palo Alto Networks, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.1 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. The record lists version 1.5.52 as the first without the flaw, so updating Cortex XSOAR Microsoft Teams Marketplace to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.24% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.

Critical severity: a successful attack would have severe impact.

What to do

  1. Update Cortex XSOAR Microsoft Teams Marketplace to 1.5.52 or a later version.
  2. Update Cortex XSIAM Microsoft Teams Marketplace to 1.5.52 or a later version.
  3. Update Cortex Xsiam to 1.5.52 or a later version.
  4. Read the advisory on security.paloaltonetworks.com for workarounds and exact fixed builds.
  5. Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.
