| Exploitation Conditions | The affected product is JP1/Automatic Job Management System 3 - Manager, versions 10-00 up to (but not including) 13-50-31; instances at or above 13-50-31 are not affected. Per the vendor CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) exploitation requires only network reachability to the Manager service with no authentication and no user interaction. The available sources do not describe which interface, protocol, port, or input triggers the stack overflow, so the specific exploitation prerequisite beyond network reach to a vulnerable-version Manager cannot be stated from the evidence. Primary limiting factors: the target must run an affected version (10-00 ≤ v < 13-50-31) and be network-reachable by the attacker; applying the vendor update to 13-50-31 or later removes exposure. |
| Impact | Signals mostly align toward high priority but with one notable tension. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) describes a network-reachable, low-complexity, unauthenticated flaw with high confidentiality and integrity impact and low availability impact, scored 9.4 (Critical). The vuln.today decision label is 'act_now', and a vendor patch is available, both reinforcing urgency. However, the EPSS probability is only 0.45% (39th percentile), which is low and indicates no significant observed or predicted exploitation activity at this time. There is no CISA KEV listing and no public exploit identified, so the high CVSS reflects theoretical severity and exposure rather than demonstrated in-the-wild use. In short: this is a genuine high-severity, high-exposure issue warranting prompt patching per the vendor and the act_now label, but current exploitation likelihood is low - treat as 'patch promptly because it is remotely exploitable and unauthenticated', not as 'under active attack'. Note also that the description is extremely sparse (only 'Stack-based Buffer Overflow'); the trigger and attack mechanism are not described in the available sources, so the network/unauthenticated characterization rests on the vendor-supplied CVSS vector rather than any mechanism detail. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker with network access to a JP1/Automatic Job Management System 3 - Manager instance (version 10-00 up to but not including 13-50-31) sends crafted input that overflows a stack buffer. Per the CVSS vector this requires no authentication, no user interaction, and low attack complexity, yielding high confidentiality and integrity impact with limited availability effect. No public exploit code is identified at time of analysis, and the specific trigger is not described in the available sources. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 28, 2026
Stack-based buffer overflow in Hitachi JP1/AJS3 Manager (versions 10-00 before 13-50-31) could let remote, unauthenticated attackers trigger memory corruption with high confidentiality and integrity impact and limited availability impact (CVSS 9.4). The vendor CVSS vector is AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N, so no credentials or user interaction are required, but the sources do not identify the specific network interface or input that reaches the vulnerable code. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is low at 0.45% (39th percentile), while a vendor fix is available in 13-50-31.
RemediationAI
Vendor-released patch: 13-50-31. Update Hitachi JP1/Automatic Job Management System 3 - Manager to 13-50-31 or later; instances at or above 13-50-31 are not affected, per the vendor advisory at https://www.hitachi.com/products/it/software/security/info/vuls/hitachi-sec-2026-142/index.html. No workaround is described in the available advisory data, so the vendor update is the remediation path; until it is applied, exposure is confined to vulnerable-version Manager instances that are network-reachable, matching the assessed AV:N/PR:N/UI:N prerequisites.

Technical ContextAI · show details
CWE-121 is the stack-based buffer overflow class: a write past the end of a fixed-size stack buffer can corrupt adjacent stack data such as saved registers or return addresses, leading to a crash or potentially control-flow hijacking depending on compiler hardening and the surrounding code. The affected CPE is cpe:2.3:a:hitachi:jp1/automatic_job_management_system_3_-_manager, identifying the Manager component of Hitachi's JP1/Automatic Job Management System 3 job-management suite. The vendor vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:L indicates the flaw is reachable over the network without authentication or user interaction and that successful exploitation would have high confidentiality and integrity impact with low availability impact; the sources do not describe which interface, protocol, port, or crafted input triggers the overflow, so the specific exploitation mechanism is not confirmed beyond network reachability to a vulnerable-version Manager.

Stack-based Buffer Overflow Vulnerability in JP1/Automatic Job Management System 3.
This issue affects JP1/Automatic Job Management System 3 - Manager: from 10-00 before 13-50-31.
Executive ViewAI
Hitachi JP1/AJS3 Manager versions 10-00 through 13-50-29 contain a critical unauthenticated buffer overflow (CVE-2026-76936) that could allow remote attackers to corrupt memory, leading to high confidentiality and integrity impact with limited availability impact. The flaw affects a core job scheduling component, so any organization using these versions faces potential unauthorized access to scheduling data and tampering with automated workflows, which could disrupt business operations and expose sensitive information.
Apply vendor patch.
