Huntress found the same one-megabyte PIF in two customer environments, pulled down by a link that promised a PNG. Everything after it is the 2024 DarkMe chain, down to the rundll32 /sta GUID from that campaign.

SonicWall confirmed both SMA1000 flaws were exploited before disclosure, and CISA gave federal agencies three days to remediate. The lower-scored console bug is the step that reaches the operating system.

Three published exposure counts for the September 2026 SonicWall SMA1000 chain measure three different objects: identifiable banners, text mentions, and observed instances.
