What is CVE-2026-107726?

CVE-2026-107726 is a critical memory corruption vulnerability in hazelcast, published on 8 Oct 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.

Official description

Hazelcast is a unified real-time data platform combining stream processing with a fast data store. Prior to 5.4.5, 5.5.10, and 5.6.1, improper validation of data supplied by a malicious client able to connect to a cluster allows arbitrary reads from a cluster member's Java heap, off-heap data, and JVM process address space. The same flaw can crash cluster members and, in some Hazelcast Enterprise Edition configurations, corrupt memory with possible arbitrary code execution. Both slim and full distributions are affected. This issue is fixed in versions 5.4.5, 5.5.10, 5.6.1, and 5.7.0.

Weakness: CWE-20
