Information Disclosure
Information disclosure occurs when an application unintentionally exposes sensitive data that aids attackers in reconnaissance or directly compromises security.
How It Works
Information disclosure occurs when an application unintentionally exposes sensitive data that aids attackers in reconnaissance or directly compromises security. This happens through multiple channels: verbose error messages that display stack traces revealing internal paths and frameworks, improperly secured debug endpoints left active in production, and misconfigured servers that expose directory listings or version control artifacts like .git folders. APIs often leak excessive data in responses—returning full user objects when only a name is needed, or revealing system internals through metadata fields.
Attackers exploit these exposures systematically. They probe for common sensitive files (.env, config.php, backup archives), trigger error conditions to extract framework details, and analyze response timing or content differences to enumerate valid usernames or resources. Even subtle variations—like "invalid password" versus "user not found"—enable account enumeration. Exposed configuration files frequently contain database credentials, API keys, or internal service URLs that unlock further attack vectors.
The attack flow typically starts with passive reconnaissance: examining HTTP headers, JavaScript bundles, and public endpoints for version information and architecture clues. Active probing follows—testing predictable paths, manipulating parameters to trigger exceptions, and comparing responses across similar requests to identify information leakage patterns.
Impact
- Credential compromise: Exposed configuration files, hardcoded secrets in source code, or API keys enable direct authentication bypass
- Attack surface mapping: Stack traces, framework versions, and internal paths help attackers craft targeted exploits for known vulnerabilities
- Data breach: Direct exposure of user data, payment information, or proprietary business logic through oversharing APIs or accessible backups
- Privilege escalation pathway: Internal URLs, service discovery information, and architecture details facilitate lateral movement and SSRF attacks
- Compliance violations: GDPR, PCI-DSS, and HIPAA penalties for exposing regulated data through preventable disclosures
Real-World Examples
A major Git repository exposure affected thousands of websites when .git folders remained accessible on production servers, allowing attackers to reconstruct entire source code histories including deleted commits containing credentials. Tools like GitDumper automated mass exploitation of this misconfiguration.
Cloud storage misconfigurations have repeatedly exposed sensitive data when companies left S3 buckets or Azure Blob containers publicly readable. One incident exposed 150 million voter records because verbose API error messages revealed the storage URL structure, and no authentication was required.
Framework debug modes left enabled in production have caused numerous breaches. Django's DEBUG=True setting exposed complete stack traces with database queries and environment variables, while Laravel's debug pages revealed encryption keys through the APP_KEY variable in environment dumps.
Mitigation
- Generic error pages: Return uniform error messages to users; log detailed exceptions server-side only
- Disable debug modes: Enforce production configurations that suppress stack traces, verbose logging, and debug endpoints through deployment automation
- Access control audits: Restrict or remove development artifacts (
.git, backup files,phpinfo()) and internal endpoints before deployment - Response minimization: API responses should return only necessary fields; implement allowlists rather than blocklists for data exposure
- Security headers: Deploy
X-Content-Type-Options, remove server version banners, and disable directory indexing - Timing consistency: Ensure authentication and validation responses take uniform time regardless of input validity

Division-by-zero denial of service in Linux kernel's Intel i915 DRM driver when loading on certain machines with DSC (Display Stream Compression) enabled in command mode. The driver incorrectly applies horizontal timing adjustments based on compression ratio in command mode, causing line_time_us to become zero and triggering a kernel panic. Affects Linux kernel versions 5.6 and later; patch available via stable kernel releases.
Denial of service in the Linux kernel's mpu3050 gyroscope driver allows local authenticated attackers to crash the system via incorrect IRQ handler cleanup during module unload. A mismatch between the registered IRQ handler (mpu3050->trig) and the handler passed to free_irq() (mpu3050) causes improper cleanup, leading to resource leaks and potential kernel panic when the device is removed or the driver is unloaded. No public exploit code identified; patch available across affected kernel series.
Resource leak in the Linux kernel MPU3050 gyro driver allows local authenticated users to cause denial of service through memory exhaustion by repeatedly triggering iio_trigger_register() failures that fail to release previously allocated interrupt handlers. The vulnerability affects multiple kernel versions and requires local access with unprivileged user privileges, resulting in potential system availability impact with low real-world exploitation likelihood (EPSS 0.02%).
Race condition in the Linux kernel MPU3050 gyroscope driver allows local attackers with low privileges to potentially achieve code execution, data corruption, or information disclosure. The vulnerability stems from premature registration of the IIO device before complete initialization in the probe function, creating a window where userspace can interact with incompletely configured hardware. While CVSS rates this 7.8 HIGH with local attack vector, EPSS score of 0.02% (7th percentile) indicates extremely low probability of active exploitation. Patches available across all maintained kernel branches (5.10.253, 5.15.203, 6.1.168, 6.6.134, 6.12.81, 6.18.22, 6.19.12, 7.0). No evidence of active exploitation (not in CISA KEV) or public proof-of-concept code.

The EPSS score of 0.02% indicates minimal real-world exploitation risk despite the moderate CVSS 5.5 severity, reflecting the combination of local-only access requirement, authentication need, and the niche nature of GPIB USB device usage.
Double-free memory corruption in Linux kernel USB ULPI subsystem allows local authenticated attackers with low privileges to potentially achieve arbitrary code execution, denial of service, or information disclosure. The flaw exists in ulpi_register_interface() error handling since kernel 4.2 (commit 289fcff4b), where device_register() failure triggers cleanup via put_device() followed by redundant kfree(), corrupting kernel memory. Patches available across stable kernel branches (5.10.253, 5.15.203, 6.1.168, 6.6.134, 6.12.81, 6.18.22, 6.19.12, 7.0). EPSS score of 0.02% suggests low likelihood of mass exploitation despite high CVSS 7.8, likely due to local attack vector and requirement for device registration failure conditions.
Use-after-free condition in Linux kernel USB Test and Measurement Class (USBTMC) driver allows local authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges. The vulnerability occurs when the usbtmc_release function fails to properly flush pending anchored URBs, leaving dangling references that can be exploited in the HCD giveback path. Vendor patches are available across multiple stable kernel versions (5.10.253, 5.15.203, 6.1.168, 6.6.134, 6.12.81, 6.18.22, 6.19.12, and 7.0). Despite the high CVSS score of 7.8, the EPSS exploitation probability is very low at 0.02% (7th percentile), indicating limited real-world targeting, and no active exploitation or public POC has been identified.
A memory leak in the Linux kernel's USB misc usbio driver allows local attackers with low privileges to cause a denial of service by exhausting kernel memory through repeated USB device probe failures. The vulnerability arises when usb_submit_urb() fails during device initialization, leaving allocated URB structures unreleased and accumulating with each failed probe attempt.
Denial of service in Linux kernel USB dwc2 gadget driver allows local authenticated users to trigger a deadlock via improper spin lock handling in dwc2_hsotg_udc_stop(). The vulnerability stems from a locking protocol violation where dwc2_gadget_exit_clock_gating() expects a held lock but is called without one, causing spin_unlock on an unheld lock followed by a lock held indefinitely, resulting in system hang. No public exploit code identified at time of analysis.
Denial of service in Linux kernel bridge module via malformed IPv6 Neighbor Discovery options allows local authenticated attackers to crash the system by crafting packets with invalid ND option lengths that cause memory access violations in the br_nd_send() function.

EPSS exploitation probability is very low at 0.02%, reflecting the requirement for local authenticated access and low attack complexity.
Memory leak in Linux kernel comedi subsystem allows local privileged users to exhaust kernel memory and cause denial of service. The vulnerability exists in do_cmd_ioctl() where chanlist memory is not properly freed when runflags is not set following an exceptional exit, due to incomplete reference counting logic introduced in commit 4e1da516debb. CVSS 5.5 (local, low complexity, requires user privilege) with EPSS 0.02% indicates this is a lower-priority local DoS affecting systems with comedi driver loaded and untrusted local users.
Memory leak in Linux kernel s390/zcrypt subsystem allows local authenticated attackers to exhaust memory resources by repeatedly using CCA cards as accelerators for clear key RSA requests (ME and CRT operations). The vulnerability stems from incomplete refactoring where AP message allocations via ap_init_apmsg() are not properly freed in two code paths, causing heap memory exhaustion over time and enabling denial of service on s390 systems with CCA cryptographic hardware.
Double-free memory corruption in the Linux kernel reset-gpio subsystem allows local authenticated users to escalate privileges or crash the system. The vulnerability exists in reset_add_gpio_aux_device() error handling since commit 5fc4e4cf7a22, where auxiliary_device_uninit() triggers a release callback that frees memory, but the error path then calls kfree() on the same pointer. Patches available for kernel versions 6.19.12+ and 7.0+. EPSS score of 0.02% (5th percentile) indicates low probability of widespread exploitation. Not listed in CISA KEV; no public exploit identified at time of analysis.
Memory corruption in the Linux kernel virtual terminal (vt) subsystem allows local authenticated users to trigger kernel crashes and potentially escalate privileges. When a console switches to an alternate screen and then gets resized, the saved Unicode buffer retains stale dimensions. Upon returning to the primary screen, operations like screen clearing (csi_J) access memory out of bounds using current dimensions against the old buffer, causing kernel oops. EPSS exploitation probability is low (0.02%, 4th percentile), no active exploitation confirmed, but vendor patches are available across multiple stable kernel branches (5.x, 6.18.x, 6.19.x).
Denial of service via runtime PM usage count underflow in the rz-mtu3-cnt counter driver allows local privileged users to disable hardware counters and trigger kernel warnings by repeatedly writing to the sysfs enable file. Multiple writes of the same value (0 or 1) to the enable attribute cause the runtime PM reference count to become misaligned with actual hardware state, leading to register access with clocks disabled and potential PWM channel conflicts. EPSS exploitation probability is minimal (0.02%) despite local access requirement, indicating this is primarily a local reliability issue rather than a remote attack vector.
Denial of service in Linux kernel counter driver (rz-mtu3-cnt) allows local attackers with low privileges to crash the system by exploiting a race condition where counter and PWM sub-drivers overwrite a shared device pointer, causing incorrect runtime power management operations. The vulnerability affects kernel versions prior to specific patch levels across the 6.x and 7.x branches, with EPSS exploitation probability of 0.02% indicating low real-world exploitation likelihood despite the availability of a vendor patch.
Denial of service in Linux kernel VXLAN module allows local authenticated attackers to crash the system via malformed IPv6 neighbor discovery options in vxlan_na_create(). A crafted ND option with incorrect length values can cause out-of-bounds access or undersized payload reads, triggering a kernel panic. EPSS exploitation probability is low at 0.02%, but the vulnerability is confirmed patched across multiple stable kernel branches (5.10.253, 5.15.203, 6.1.168, 6.6.134, 6.12.81, 6.18.22, 6.19.12).
Memory leaks in the ftgmac100 Ethernet driver's ring allocation function allow local authenticated users to cause a denial of service through resource exhaustion on driver initialization failure. The vulnerability is triggered when ftgmac100_alloc_rings() fails during intermediate allocation stages, returning directly without freeing previously allocated resources (rx_skbs, tx_skbs, rxdes, txdes, rx_scratch). This affects Linux kernel versions prior to fixes released in stable branches 5.10.253, 5.15.203, 6.1.168, 6.6.134, 6.12.81, 6.18.22, 6.19.12, and 7.0.
Linux kernel IOMMU page table unmapping operations fail to invalidate extended memory regions when unmapping lands mid-entry in large/contiguous mappings, causing stale TLB entries. Affects kernel 6.19 through pre-7.0 versions with IOMMU subsystem enabled. Local authenticated attackers with low privileges can potentially access unmapped memory or escalate privileges by exploiting incomplete invalidations during IOMMU unmap operations. EPSS score of 0.02% (5th percentile) suggests minimal real-world exploitation likelihood. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, though vendor acknowledges theoretical risk is low as 'nothing relies on unmapping a large entry.' Vendor-released patches available for stable branches.
Denial of service in Linux kernel scheduler extension (sched_ext) allows local privileged attackers to crash systems by triggering incorrect task migration validation. The vulnerability exists in the is_bpf_migration_disabled() function, which fails to correctly identify migration-disabled tasks on non-PREEMPT_RCU configurations, potentially dispatching such tasks to remote CPUs and triggering kernel errors in task_can_run_on_remote_rq(). EPSS exploitation probability is very low at 0.02%, but CVSS 5.5 indicates local attackers with standard user privileges can cause denial of service.
Resource leaks in the Linux kernel GPIO subsystem allow local attackers with low privileges to cause denial of service through memory exhaustion during gpiochip initialization error handling. The vulnerability arises from improper reference counting in gpiochip_add_data_with_key() after device initialization, where error paths fail to release device references, leading to memory not being freed on function failure. CVSS 5.5 with EPSS 0.02% indicates low real-world exploitation probability despite local attack vector.
Use-after-free in Linux kernel thermal subsystem allows local attackers with low privileges to execute arbitrary code, escalate privileges, or crash the system. The vulnerability stems from race conditions between thermal zone removal and power management resume operations, where delayed work items can continue executing after thermal zone objects are freed. EPSS score of 0.02% (5th percentile) suggests low probability of mass exploitation despite high CVSS severity. Vendor patches available across multiple stable kernel branches (6.12.83, 6.18.22, 6.19.12, 7.0) via upstream commits. No active exploitation confirmed in CISA KEV at time of analysis.
Double-free memory corruption in the Linux kernel's fastrpc driver allows local attackers with low privileges to achieve high-impact code execution, privilege escalation, or denial of service. The vulnerability occurs when fastrpc_init_create_static_process() fails to nullify a freed heap pointer (cctx->remote_heap) in its error path, enabling fastrpc_rpmsg_remove() to free the same memory twice during device removal. Patches available across kernel versions 6.6.134, 6.12.81, 6.18.22, 6.19.12, and mainline 7.0. EPSS score of 0.02% indicates low observed exploitation probability, with no active exploitation confirmed at time of analysis.
Denial of service in the Linux kernel USB gadget ECM (Ethernet Control Model) driver allows local authenticated attackers to crash the system by exploiting improper net_device lifecycle management during bind and unbind cycles. When the gadget device unbinds, the network device survives with dangling sysfs symlinks, causing kernel issues when accessed or when the device tree is traversed. The vulnerability affects Linux kernel versions prior to patches released in 6.12.81, 6.18.22, 6.19.12, and 7.0.
Denial of service in Linux kernel USB gadget EEM function allows local privileged attackers to crash the system by triggering a dangling sysfs symlink condition during gadget device unbind cycles. The vulnerability arises from improper net_device lifecycle management when the parent gadget device is destroyed while the network device persists, resulting in kernel panic or system instability. CVSS 5.5 reflects local privilege requirement (PR:L) and high availability impact, with EPSS at 0.02% percentile indicating minimal real-world exploitation probability despite patch availability.
USB gadget subsystem net_device lifecycle mismanagement in Linux kernel allows local privileged users to cause denial of service through sysfs corruption. The f_subset gadget function creates dangling sysfs symlinks when unbinding due to improper device reparenting, resulting in inaccessible network device references and potential system instability. A local user with sufficient privileges can trigger unbind/rebind cycles to exhaust resources or corrupt the sysfs filesystem state.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: f_rndis: Fix net_device lifecycle with device_move The net_device is allocated during function instance creation and registered during the bind phase with the gadget device as its sysfs parent. When the function unbinds, the parent device is destroyed, but the net_device survives, resulting in dangling sysfs symlinks: console:/ # ls -l /sys/class/net/usb0 lrwxrwxrwx ... /sys/class/net/usb0 -> /sys/devices/platform/.../gadget.0/net/usb0 console:/ # ls -l /sys/devices/platform/.../gadget.0/net/usb0 ls: .../gadget.0/net/usb0: No such file or directory Use device_move() to reparent the net_device between the gadget device tree and /sys/devices/virtual across bind and unbind cycles. During the final unbind, calling device_move(NULL) moves the net_device to the virtual device tree before the gadget device is destroyed. On rebinding, device_move() reparents the device back under the new gadget, ensuring proper sysfs topology and power management ordering. To maintain compatibility with legacy composite drivers (e.g., multi.c), the borrowed_net flag is used to indicate whether the network device is shared and pre-registered during the legacy driver's bind phase.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: f_hid: move list and spinlock inits from bind to alloc There was an issue when you did the following: - setup and bind an hid gadget - open /dev/hidg0 - use the resulting fd in EPOLL_CTL_ADD - unbind the UDC - bind the UDC - use the fd in EPOLL_CTL_DEL When CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST was enabled, a list_del corruption was reported within remove_wait_queue (via ep_remove_wait_queue). After some debugging I found out that the queues, which f_hid registers via poll_wait were the problem. These were initialized using init_waitqueue_head inside hidg_bind. So effectively, the bind function re-initialized the queues while there were still items in them. The solution is to move the initialization from hidg_bind to hidg_alloc to extend their lifetimes to the lifetime of the function instance. Additionally, I found many other possibly problematic init calls in the bind function, which I moved as well.
Permissive CORS policy in MeTube up to version 2026.04.09 allows remote attackers to bypass same-origin restrictions by exploiting wildcard origin acceptance (cors_allowed_origins='*') in the on_prepare function of app/main.py, potentially enabling cross-domain data theft or unauthorized API access. The vulnerability requires user interaction (UI:P) but grants information disclosure via cross-domain requests. Publicly available exploit code exists; upgrade to 2026.04.10 fixes the issue by restricting origins to a configurable allowlist.
Weak password recovery in D-Link M60 up to version 1.20B02 allows remote attackers to compromise device authentication through manipulation of the /usr/bin/httpd binary, requiring high attack complexity but with publicly disclosed exploit code available. The vulnerability enables information disclosure and potential unauthorized access to device management functions despite the low CVSS score of 2.9 reflecting limited confidentiality impact.
Integer underflow in Open-SAE-J1939 library's transport protocol handler enables remote unauthenticated attackers to corrupt arbitrary memory locations via manipulated CAN frame sequence numbers. CVSS 9.8 reflects network-accessible attack surface with no authentication barriers, though exploitation requires deployment in CAN-connected environments (industrial control systems, automotive networks). EPSS data unavailable; SSVC indicates total technical impact with automated exploitation potential but no confirmed active exploitation.
Out-of-bounds memory read in openxc/isotp-c ISO-TP Single Frame handler allows adjacent network attackers to trigger denial of service or extract sensitive information via malicious CAN frames. The vulnerability exists in all versions through commit 5a5d19245f65 (August 2021) and stems from unchecked use of a 4-bit payload length field directly as memcpy buffer size. EPSS data unavailable; no CISA KEV listing indicates no confirmed widespread exploitation, though publicly available technical analysis exists (GitHub Gist reference).
V2Board through version 1.7.4 exposes sensitive server authentication tokens via GET parameters in the UniProxy API endpoint, causing tokens to be recorded in web server access logs, browser history, HTTP Referer headers, and intermediary proxies. An attacker who obtains access to any log source can extract the token and impersonate a proxy server node, potentially intercepting all user traffic passing through that node.
Stack-based out-of-bounds read in Open CASCADE Technology (OCCT) V8_0_0_rc5 VRML parser allows local attackers with low privileges to cause denial of service by submitting a crafted VRML file. The vulnerability stems from unsafe pointer arithmetic in the quoted-string escape handler that reads past a fixed-size stack buffer without bounds validation. CISA SSVC assessment indicates exploitation is not currently active and not readily automatable, suggesting this is a localized attack requiring user interaction with malicious files.
Open CASCADE Technology (OCCT) V8_0_0_rc5 contains multiple out-of-bounds read vulnerabilities and infinite recursion flaws in its IGES and STEP file parsers that can be triggered by maliciously crafted CAD files, resulting in denial of service or memory disclosure. Local attackers with low privilege can exploit these issues without user interaction by supplying crafted IGES or STEP files to applications using OCCT. EPSS-based risk assessment indicates moderate exploitation probability; CISA SSVC framework rates this as non-automated with partial technical impact (denial of service and information disclosure).
Authenticated admin users in V2Board through version 1.7.4 can exploit unsanitized sort parameters in the user management interface to disclose sensitive database information including password hashes and authentication tokens through ORDER BY-based information disclosure. The vulnerability requires admin privileges and does not enable data modification or service disruption, but allows attackers with administrative access to extract confidential user data by analyzing sort order patterns.
Heap-based out-of-bounds read in Open CASCADE Technology V8_0_0_rc5 OBJ file parser allows local attackers to cause denial of service or leak sensitive memory contents when victims open malicious OBJ files. The vulnerability stems from missing buffer length validation in RWObj_Reader::read() after Standard_ReadLineBuffer::ReadLine() returns minimal 1-byte buffers, leading to unsafe memory access at aLine + 2. EPSS data not available; no confirmed active exploitation or public proof-of-concept identified at time of analysis. Requires user interaction, limiting automated exploitation potential.
Out-of-bounds read in Open CASCADE Technology V8_0_0_rc5 VRML parser allows denial of service when processing crafted VRML files with invalid coordIndex values.

Heap-based out-of-bounds reads in Open CASCADE Technology (OCCT) V8_0_0_rc5 STL ASCII parser allow local attackers to trigger denial of service or disclose process memory by convincing users to open maliciously crafted STL files with extremely short lines. The vulnerability stems from improper length validation of buffers returned by Standard_ReadLineBuffer::ReadLine() before strncasecmp operations or direct byte access in RWStl_Reader::ReadAscii. CVSS score of 7.1 reflects high confidentiality and availability impact requiring user interaction. No public exploit code, active exploitation (CISA KEV), or vendor patch information identified at time of analysis, though technical details are publicly available via GitHub Gist.
Route Services in Cloud Foundry Routing Release v0.118.0-v0.371.0 and CF Deployment v0.0.2-v54.14.0 allow authenticated malicious developers to bypass application egress rules by configuring route-services that redirect traffic to internal network destinations otherwise unreachable from external networks or the application itself. This affects the scope of the routing infrastructure, enabling information disclosure and potential lateral movement within the Gorouter network.
IBM watsonx.data versions 2.2 through 2.3 fail to enforce proper network segmentation between Kubernetes pods in the Lakehouse component, allowing attackers with network access to the cluster to transfer data between pods without authentication or authorization controls. This integrity vulnerability has a moderate CVSS score of 5.3 and requires adjacent network access and specific configuration conditions to exploit.
IBM watsonx.data intelligence versions 5.2.0, 5.2.1, 5.3.0, and 5.3.1 store user credentials in plain text within local filesystem locations, allowing any local user to read sensitive authentication material without authentication. This information disclosure vulnerability affects confidentiality but not integrity or availability, and requires local filesystem access to exploit.
Format string injection in Notepad++ 8.9.3 Find Results panel handler allows local attackers to cause denial of service and disclose stack memory by distributing malicious nativeLang.xml language pack files that trigger unsafe format string interpretation during search operations. User interaction is required to load the poisoned language pack and perform a search. No active exploitation confirmed, but patch is available from vendor.

EPSS score not available for this recent CVE; no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and not currently listed in CISA KEV.
Out-of-bounds read in Absolute Secure Access macOS client prior to version 14.50 allows remote attackers with control of a modified server to send malformed packets triggering denial of service. The vulnerability requires high attack complexity (modified server infrastructure and user interaction) and results in availability impact only, with a low CVSS score of 2.3 reflecting limited real-world severity despite network accessibility.
Format string vulnerability in Secure Access client for macOS prior to version 14.50 allows authenticated local attackers to leak sensitive data from process memory via crafted logging input, potentially exposing secrets through log files. The vulnerability requires local access and valid user privileges but no user interaction. Patch is available from the vendor.
Authorization bypass in Clerk JavaScript SDKs allows authenticated users to proceed past combined authorization checks they should fail. When developers use has() or auth.protect() with multiple authorization dimensions (e.g., role + reverification, permission + billing feature, or billing plan + permission), the predicate incorrectly returns true for users who satisfy only a subset of the required conditions. Sessions and authentication remain secure, but gated actions may execute for under-privileged users. Patches released across all affected SDK packages (Core 2 and Core 3) with no API changes. No public exploit code identified at time of analysis, but the vulnerability is straightforward to trigger in production code patterns explicitly outlined in the vendor advisory.
Out-of-bounds read in the GnuTLS DTLS handshake reassembly logic lets remote unauthenticated attackers trigger an integer underflow by sending malformed handshake fragments with zero length and a non-zero offset, enabling information disclosure or denial of service against Red Hat-shipped GnuTLS (RHEL 6 through 10, OpenShift Container Platform 4, and Red Hat Hardened Images). Reported by Red Hat with a vendor patch available and errata released; no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS is very low (0.04%, 11th percentile) with SSVC exploitation status 'none'. CVSS 9.1 reflects high confidentiality and availability impact over the network at low complexity without authentication.
GnuTLS with OCSP verification enabled incorrectly accepts revoked server certificates when presented with specially crafted multi-record OCSP responses during TLS handshakes, allowing attackers to bypass certificate revocation checks and establish connections to compromised servers. The vulnerability requires high attack complexity and specific OCSP configuration, affecting Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6-10, Red Hat Hardened Images, and OpenShift Container Platform 4. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at the time of analysis.
Certificate name-constraints bypass in GnuTLS allows a remote attacker to craft a leaf certificate whose Subject Alternative Name differs only in letter casing from a constrained dNSName or rfc822Name, causing GnuTLS to accept a certificate that its excludedSubtrees/permittedSubtrees policy should reject. The flaw stems from case-sensitive comparison of name-constraint labels and enables unauthorized access, impersonation, or information disclosure across software (notably Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6-10 and OpenShift Container Platform 4) that relies on GnuTLS for X.509 validation. SSVC notes a public proof-of-concept exists, though EPSS exploitation probability is very low (0.03%, 9th percentile) and the issue is not in CISA KEV.
Weblate fails to revoke Django REST Framework API tokens when users change their passwords, allowing attackers with knowledge of a user's old credentials to continue accessing APIs indefinitely even after password changes. The vulnerability affects authenticated users on Weblate versions prior to 5.17.1 and requires high attack complexity due to the need for legitimate account access, but carries meaningful risk in multi-user translation environments where password compromise may go undetected.
Keycloak's Account REST API remains partially accessible even when explicitly disabled via the `--features-disabled=account,account-api` flag, allowing authenticated users to read and modify account data through five unprotected endpoints under `/account/v1alpha1/` that lack the required `checkAccountApiEnabled()` access control gate present in four sibling endpoints within the same service class.
Authenticated users with minimal namespace-scoped privileges can obtain administrative credentials for arbitrary OpenShift clusters provisioned through the MCE hub via the assisted-service REST API. The vulnerability exists in AUTH_TYPE=local mode (the only mode available in on-premises deployments), where the local authenticator grants full administrative access to any request bearing a valid JWT with no per-endpoint restrictions. A valid JWT is embedded as plaintext in the InfraEnvStatus.ISODownloadURL, readable by any user with get rights on an InfraEnv object, enabling extraction of kubeadmin passwords and kubeconfigs for all spoke clusters.
Remote authenticated attackers can flood PDKS (Personnel and Document Tracking System) through uncontrolled interaction frequency, achieving high integrity and availability impacts without confidentiality breach. This workforce management software by MeWare Software Development Inc. is vulnerable to denial-of-service conditions and potential data integrity compromise through rate-limiting bypass. Affects versions from V16.20200313 through VMYR_3.5.2025117. TR-CERT advisory available, EPSS data not provided, no CISA KEV listing identified.
Code injection in Qt SVG module allows attackers to execute arbitrary QML/JavaScript when applications load malicious SVG files through Qt Quick's VectorImage component. Exploitation requires local file access and user interaction (opening crafted SVG). While QML execution is more restricted than native code, attackers can still trigger denial of service, exfiltrate application data, or manipulate UI logic depending on the victim application's privilege context. No active exploitation confirmed (not in CISA KEV), but patch available from Qt Project reduces urgency for immediate emergency response.
Authenticated remote attackers can access sensitive personal information in MeWare PDKS versions 16.20200313 through before VMYR_3.5.2025117 due to improper access controls. The vulnerability allows disclosure of private data without authorization, affecting confidentiality. CVSS score of 6.5 reflects moderate severity with network accessibility and low attack complexity, though authentication is required. No active exploitation or public proof-of-concept has been confirmed at time of analysis.
Dancer::Session::Abstract through version 1.3522 generates cryptographically weak session identifiers by combining predictable inputs (file path, process ID, epoch time) with an insufficiently-seeded Perl rand() function, allowing remote attackers to predict valid session IDs and hijack user sessions without authentication. The vulnerability affects Perl-based web applications using Dancer framework's default session handling; active exploitation is not confirmed but the attack requires only guessing a session ID, making it practically exploitable.
Uninitialized variable use in Linux kernel CIFS replay logic allows local authenticated attackers to potentially access sensitive kernel memory, corrupt data, or trigger denial of service. The vulnerability exists in CIFS request replay code paths where certain local variables lack proper reinitialization after replay labels, potentially causing undefined behavior during SMB session recovery operations. Patches available for kernel versions 6.6.128, 6.12.75, 6.18.16, 6.19.6, and 7.0. EPSS score of 0.02% indicates minimal observed exploitation activity, consistent with the local access requirement and specialized triggering conditions.

JetBrains IDEA versions before 2024.3.7.1, 2025.1.7.1, 2025.2.6.2, 2025.3.4.1, and 2026.1.1 are affected. The vulnerability achieves scope change (CVSS S:C) enabling cross-context information theft with high confidentiality impact but no integrity or availability damage. No active exploitation (KEV-absent) or public POC identified at time of analysis, though vendor disclosure suggests controlled remediation timeline.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: rtnetlink: add missing netlink_ns_capable() check for peer netns rtnl_newlink() lacks a CAP_NET_ADMIN capability check on the peer network namespace when creating paired devices (veth, vxcan, netkit). This allows an unprivileged user with a user namespace to create interfaces in arbitrary network namespaces, including init_net. Add a netlink_ns_capable() check for CAP_NET_ADMIN in the peer namespace before allowing device creation to proceed.
Double-free vulnerability in Linux kernel Xen privcmd driver allows local authenticated attackers to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code or cause denial of service. When userspace performs partial munmap() on privcmd mappings, VMA splitting creates duplicate pointers to the same memory pages array, leading to kvfree() being called twice on the same allocation during VMA cleanup. Xen Security Advisory XSA-487 confirms this issue affects virtualization hosts running Xen paravirtualized domains. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, with EPSS score of 0.03% indicating low predicted exploitation probability. Vendor-released patches available for stable kernel versions 5.10.254, 5.15.204, 6.1.170, 6.6.137, 6.12.85, 6.18.26, and 7.0.3.
Apache Airflow's SmtpHook performs STARTTLS upgrades without SSL certificate validation, allowing man-in-the-middle attackers to intercept SMTP credentials. Remote unauthenticated attackers positioned between an Airflow worker and SMTP server can present a self-signed certificate, complete the TLS handshake, and capture login credentials sent after the upgrade. The vulnerability affects apache-airflow-providers-smtp versions 2.0.0 through 2.x and is patched in version 3.0.0 or later. No public exploit code identified at time of analysis, but EPSS score of 0.01% indicates low real-world exploitation probability despite confidentiality impact.
Out-of-bounds read in ASR Kestrel's nr_fw power control module enables authenticated remote attackers to trigger buffer overflow conditions, potentially disclosing sensitive information and compromising system integrity with low-to-moderate impact across security boundaries. Exploitable over the network with low complexity by attackers holding low-privilege credentials. EPSS data unavailable; not currently listed in CISA KEV. Vendor advisory confirms patch released February 10, 2026.
Out-of-bounds read in Exim before 4.99.2 when UTF-8 operators are enabled allows remote unauthenticated attackers to leak sensitive information through error messages by sending email with malformed UTF-8 trailing characters in headers. The vulnerability has high attack complexity due to the requirement for UTF-8 operator enablement and specific malformed input crafting, but requires no user interaction and operates over the network on default deployments.
The `BetaLocalFilesystemMemoryTool` in the Anthropic TypeScript SDK created memory files and directories using the Node.js default modes (`0o666` for files, `0o777` for directories), leaving them world-readable on systems with a standard umask and world-writable in environments with a permissive umask such as many Docker base images. A local attacker on a shared host could read persisted agent state, and in containerized deployments could modify memory files to influence subsequent model behavior. Users on the affected versions are advised to update to the latest version. Claude SDK thanks `lucasfutures` for the report.
Plack::Middleware::XSendfile through version 1.0053 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary files from nginx-proxied servers by injecting malicious X-Sendfile-Type and X-Accel-Mapping headers. When the middleware's sendfile type is not explicitly configured, clients can force nginx's X-Accel-Redirect mode and manipulate path mappings to access sensitive files outside intended directories. The middleware has been deprecated as of version 1.0053 and will be removed in future Plack releases. EPSS score of 0.01% suggests low current exploitation activity despite the high CVSS 9.1 rating. No public exploit code identified at time of analysis, though the attack technique mirrors the documented CVE-2025-61780 vulnerability in Rack::Sendfile.
SAML response redirection in Admidio 5.0.8 and earlier allows attackers to steal signed authentication assertions containing user credentials and profile data by exploiting missing validation of the AssertionConsumerServiceURL in SAML AuthnRequests. The Identity Provider (IdP) accepts attacker-controlled destination URLs from SAML requests without verifying them against registered Service Provider endpoints, enabling assertion theft and account impersonation across federated applications. No public exploit code identified at time of analysis, though proof-of-concept demonstration is included in the GitHub security advisory GHSA-p9w9-87c8-m235. EPSS data not available for this CVE.
Admidio members_assignment_data.php endpoint leaks hidden profile field values through a blind search oracle attack. Role leaders with ROLE_LEADER_MEMBERS_ASSIGN permissions can infer exact values of hidden PII fields (birthdays, street addresses, cities, postal codes, countries) by observing which users appear in search results, despite these fields being suppressed from JSON output. The vulnerability affects Admidio versions up to 5.0.8 and is fixed in 5.0.9.
Prototype pollution in n8n's XML node allows authenticated workflow editors to achieve remote code execution through global prototype manipulation. The vulnerability affects n8n workflow automation platform versions prior to 1.123.32, 2.17.4, and 2.18.1, enabling attackers with workflow creation privileges to inject malicious properties into JavaScript object prototypes that can be exploited by other nodes to execute arbitrary code. Vendor-released patches are available for all affected version branches. No public exploit code or active exploitation (CISA KEV) has been identified at time of analysis, though the CVSS 10.0 score reflects the critical scope change and complete system compromise potential.
CKAN fails to validate SMTP server certificates, allowing attackers to spoof the configured mail server with any certificate including self-signed ones and intercept SMTP credentials and email content via man-in-the-middle attack. Versions below 2.10.10 and 2.11.0 through 2.11.4 are affected. Vendor-released patches are available in CKAN 2.10.10 and 2.11.5.
GNU wget2 incorrectly validates TLS server certificates, accepting certificates with improper Key Usage (KU) or Extended Key Usage (EKU) attributes. This allows attackers who have compromised certificates issued for non-server purposes to impersonate legitimate servers in TLS connections, enabling man-in-the-middle attacks that leak sensitive information such as authentication credentials or request/response data.
Insufficient option length validation in the IPv6 Router Advertisement parser in FreeRTOS-Plus-TCP before V4.2.6 and V4.4.1 allows an adjacent network actor to cause a denial of service (device crash) by sending a crafted Router Advertisement with a truncated PREFIX_INFORMATION option that is smaller than the expected structure size. To mitigate this issue, users should upgrade to the fixed version when available.
Dell/Alienware Purchased Apps, versions prior to 1.1.31.0, contain an Improper Link Resolution Before File Access ('Link Following') vulnerability. A low privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to Arbitrary File Write
AgentFlow's local web API accepts non-JSON content types on POST /api/runs and POST /api/runs/validate endpoints without enforcing application/json validation, allowing attackers to bypass trust-boundary enforcement on sensitive operations. Attackers can exploit this content-type validation weakness through browser-driven or local cross-origin requests to abuse the localhost API and enable attack chains against the local control plane.

Netskope was notified about a potential gap in the Endpoint DLP Module for Netskope Client on Windows systems. The successful exploitation of the gap can potentially allow an unprivileged user to trigger an out-of-bounds read within a driver, leading to a Blue-Screen-of-Death (BSOD). Successful exploitation would require the Endpoint DLP module to be enabled in the client configuration. A successful exploit can potentially result in a denial-of-service for the local machine.
A vulnerability in the access control mechanism of SonicOS may allow certain management interface functions to be accessible under specific conditions.
Improper link resolution before file access ('link following') vulnerability in TUBITAK BILGEM Software Technologies Research Institute Pardus About allows Symlink Attack. This issue affects Pardus About: before v1.2.1.
Jenkins Matrix Authorization Strategy Plugin 2.0-beta-1 through 3.2.9 (both inclusive) invokes parameterless constructors of classes specified in configuration when deserializing inheritance strategies, without restricting the classes that can be instantiated, allowing attackers with Item/Configure permission to instantiate arbitrary types, which may lead to information disclosure or other impacts depending on the classes available on the classpath.
Ollama for Windows does not perform integrity or authenticity verification of downloaded update executables. Unlike other platforms, the Windows implementation of the update verification routine unconditionally returns success so no digital signature or trust validation is performed before staging or executing update payloads, enabling attacker‑supplied executables to be accepted and later executed by the application. Critically, Ollama for Windows performs silent automatic updates, so the malicious payload may be installed automatically without user awareness. Maintainers of this project were notified early about this vulnerability, but didn't respond with the details of vulnerability or vulnerable version range. Versions from 0.12.10 to 0.17.5 were tested and confirmed as vulnerable, other versions were not tested but might also be vulnerable.
