DescriptionCVE.org

A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability in the WatchGuard Fireware OS iked process allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code by sending specially crafted network traffic.

AnalysisAI

Remote code execution in WatchGuard Fireware OS affects the iked (IKE/IPsec VPN key-exchange) daemon, where a stack-based buffer overflow lets a remote, unauthenticated attacker run arbitrary code by sending specially crafted network traffic. Because iked terminates VPN negotiations at the network edge, any Firebox appliance exposing IKE/IPsec is reachable pre-authentication. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The affected Firebox must expose the iked (IKE/IPsec VPN key-exchange) service to the attacker - i.e., an IPsec VPN feature (Mobile VPN with IPsec or branch-office IPsec) is enabled and UDP 500/4500 is reachable from the attacker's network position. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment This rates as a genuine high priority, not an inflated CVSS number. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Apply the fixed Fireware OS release identified in the WatchGuard PSIRT advisory (https://psirt.watchguard.com/CVE-2026-19318) - patch available per vendor advisory; an exact fixed version is not included in the provided data, so confirm the target build directly from that advisory rather than assuming one. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: inventory all WatchGuard Firebox appliances and document firmware versions; disable IKE/IPsec services where operationally feasible or restrict IPsec access to trusted source IP ranges only. …
