Critical CVSS 9.8
CVE-2026-49435
NVD analysis in progress
Keysight IxChariot Endpoint and associated products contain a stack-based buffer overflow. An unauthenticated remote attacker can send a specially crafted packet and execute arbitrary code with administrative privileges.
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable remotely over the network, without authentication and with no action from the victim.
- Impact
- An attacker can read sensitive data, modify or destroy data and take the service offline.
- Weakness
- A stack overflow overwrites the return address, which often leads to code execution.
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
