KG BRAIN2, published on 20 Jul 2026. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-16246 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Bizerba SE \u0026 Co. KG BRAIN2. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-16246/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-16246/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-16246","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-16246/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-16246","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-r977-vhwm-4c47"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"BRAIN2 desktop application","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Insecure permissions on ProgramData allow local attackers to modify files, potentially leading to privilege escalation or data tampering.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"misconfiguration"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"bizerba","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.3,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:H/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-276","name":"Incorrect Default Permissions"}],"description":"In BRAIN2 versions prior to 3.09, the\napplication LogPathConfig.exe is executed during setup.
