High CVSS 7.6

CVE-2026-6682

Elm-chan Fatfs

In FatFS R0.16 and earlier contains a FAT32 integer overflow bug in mount_volume() where fasize *= fs->n_fats can wrap, leading to attacker-controlled file-size metadata and unsafe read lengths in downstream callers. This maps to CWE-190 (Integer Overflow or Wraparound). Estimated CVSS v3.1 vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:P/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H (7.6, High). Remote delivery is also possible in OTA/update pipelines. The estimated CISA SSVC vectors are Exploitation: PoC, Technical Impact: Total.

What this means

Exposure
Exploitable with physical access to the device, 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. The impact spreads beyond the vulnerable component into other parts of the system.
Weakness
A computation exceeds the integer type’s range, producing a nonsensical size and a broken allocation.
Likelihood
Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.

What to doFold into the next patch cycle.

Read automatically from the CVSS vector, the weakness type (CWE) and the EPSS score. The technical description above remains the one published by NIST.
