NVD analysis in progress
As part of Cisco's ongoing commitment to proactive security and product quality, the Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN engineering team has conducted a comprehensive internal security review. This review resulted in software hardening releases that address multiple internally discovered vulnerabilities. The vulnerabilities tracked by CVE-2026-20312 are related to Cleartext storage of sensitive information issues that are grouped under the Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) CWE-312.
What this means

- Weakness
- Sensitive data is stored in cleartext, readable by anyone who reaches the storage.
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
