MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Execution, Privilege Escalation The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Impact | The CVSS vector (AV:L/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) indicates a local attack vector requiring high privileges and high attack complexity, which significantly constrains real-world exploitability. While the impact ratings (confidentiality, integrity, and availability all high) suggest severe consequences if successfully exploited, the prerequisites—local access and elevated privileges—mean this is not a trivial remote code execution vector. The availability of a vendor patch and the report from GovTech CSG suggest responsible disclosure. Without confirmed EPSS data, KEV status, or public POC availability in the provided intelligence, the real-world risk appears moderate to organizations with strong privilege separation and access controls, but elevated for environments where local attackers or compromised accounts with high privileges are plausible threat models. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker with high-level privileges on a system running vulnerable Echo-Mate (e.g., an administrator account or a compromised service with elevated permissions) could craft a specific sequence of operations that triggers a use-after-free condition. For example, by manipulating Echo-Mate's internal state or crafting malicious input that causes the application to reference freed memory, the attacker could leak sensitive data from adjacent memory regions, corrupt critical data structures, or crash the application. High attack complexity suggests the exploit is not trivial and may require detailed knowledge of Echo-Mate's memory layout and internal behavior, but the availability of a vendor patch indicates this has been demonstrated and confirmed. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Mar 24, 2026
A Use After Free (UAF) vulnerability exists in No-Chicken Echo-Mate prior to version V250329, allowing an attacker with high privileges to cause memory corruption that may lead to information disclosure, data integrity violations, or denial of service. The vulnerability is classified as CWE-416 and carries a CVSS score of 6.4; a security patch is available from the vendor via GitHub pull request.
RemediationAI
Upgrade No-Chicken Echo-Mate to version V250329 or later. Review and merge the vendor patch available at https://github.com/No-Chicken/Echo-Mate/pull/5 into your deployment. Until patching is completed, restrict high-privilege account access to Echo-Mate to only trusted users and administrators, enforce principle of least privilege for service accounts running Echo-Mate, and monitor process memory and system logs for signs of memory corruption or unexpected crashes. Consider isolating Echo-Mate instances in sandboxed or containerized environments to limit lateral movement if exploitation occurs.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The vulnerability is rooted in CWE-416 (Use After Free), a classic memory safety issue where the application references memory that has already been freed or deallocated. In Echo-Mate (identified via CPE cpe:2.3:a:no-chicken:echo-mate:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*), improper memory lifecycle management allows attackers to access or manipulate freed memory regions. This typically occurs in applications written in memory-unsafe languages (C/C++) or in language runtimes with manual memory management. The consequence is potential corruption of in-flight data structures, leading to cascading failures in confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

The engine reads each signal below and applies a fixed list of rules from top to bottom. The first rule that matches sets the recommended action – like a statement, every line is shown.
What every action level means
SSVC AssessmentENISA
Priority Score
Attack Technique
Use-after-free vulnerabilities occur when a program continues to access memory through a pointer after that memory has been deallocated.
Memory corruption occurs when a program writes data beyond the boundaries of allocated memory regions or accesses memory in unintended ways, violating the integrity of the process's address space.
Denial of Service attacks render applications or systems unavailable by overwhelming resources or triggering failure conditions.
