FKIE_CVE-2026-7426

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-04-29 20:16 - Updated: 2026-05-04 13:12

Severity

8.1 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H

Summary

Insufficient validation of the prefix length field in IPv6 Router Advertisement processing in FreeRTOS-Plus-TCP before V4.2.6 and V4.4.1 allows an adjacent network actor to cause memory corruption by sending a crafted Router Advertisement with a prefix length value exceeding the maximum valid length, resulting in a heap buffer overflow. Users processing IPv4 RA only are not impacted. To mitigate this issue, users should upgrade to the fixed version when available.
