An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-18416 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Zephyrproject Zephyr. 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-2026-18416/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18416/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-18416","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18416/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-18416","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-m3mv-vvm4-h58g"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Zephyr RTOS","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An out-of-bounds read in Zephyr RTOS CoAP server allows attackers to read uninitialized stack memory via crafted URI queries.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"zephyr","cpe":[{"product":"zephyr","vendor":"zephyrproject"}],"cvss":{"score":3.7,"severity":"low","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-125","name":"Out-of-bounds Read"}],"description":"The CoAP link-format helper match_path_uri() in subsys/net/lib/coap/coap_link_format.c compares a registered resource path against the URI carried in a Uri-Query href= option. That URI is not NUL terminated, but the inner character loop advanced its index k once per path character without ever testing it against the option length len. When a registered path segment is longer than the supplied URI and the URI is a prefix of it, the loop reads uri[len] and beyond, past the end of the option value.\n\nThe path is reached from coap_well_known_core_get_len() and coap_well_known_core_get() via match_queries_resource(), i.e. by any unauthenticated GET /.well-known/core?href=/\u003cprefix\u003e request to a device that serves /.well-known/core (for the CoAP server subsystem, CONFIG_COAP_SERVER_WELL_KNOWN_CORE, default y) and has at least one resource that declares struct coap_core_metadata attributes.\n\nThe over-read does not reach the receive buffer. The well-known-core builders parse the query into a stack-local struct coap_option, whose value is a fixed array (value[12], or CONFIG_COAP_EXTENDED_OPTIONS_LEN_VALUE bytes) that the option bytes are copied into, so uri points into that copy. Reading past len therefore reads the unused, uninitialized tail of the array and, when the option fills it, the bytes just past it in the same stack frame. (In the ZoAP library of v1.8.0 to v1.9.x the option value was instead a pointer into the received packet, and the over-read ran past the option inside the packet buffer.)\n\nThe impact is bounded. The number of bytes read past the end is limited by the length of the resource path segment, and each additional byte is only read if it happens to equal the next path character, so in practice the over-read is one byte. It also cannot influence the response: returning a match requires the final compared index to be len - 1 or len, both in bounds, so out-of-bounds bytes only ever steer the loop to the next candidate resource. The consequence is undefined behaviour, not information disclosure and not a matching error.\n\nThe fix adds a k \u003e= len guard at the top of the inner loop, so every uri[k] dereference is within the option value while still allowing a trailing * wildcard to match a longer path.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Out-of-bounds read in CoAP well-known-core Uri-Query href matching (match_path_uri)","id":"CVE-2026-18416","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"zephyrproject:zephyr","products":["zephyrproject:zephyr"],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Wild pointer dereference in Zephyr BSD sockets when a TCP listening socket reports an asynchronous error","id":"CVE-2026-18417"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Out-of-bounds write in the IEEE 802.15.4 L2 transmit path for oversized non-6LoWPAN frames","id":"CVE-2026-18415"},"products":["zephyr"],"published":"2026-09-28","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Out-of-bounds read/write in HTTP WebSocket upgrade via non-null-terminated Sec-WebSocket-Key","id":"CVE-2026-5067","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-06-09"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Bluetooth HCI Error Handling Double Free","id":"CVE-2022-3806","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-01-19"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in getaddrinfo","id":"CVE-2017-14199","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-04-12"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-1000800","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-09-06"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"DOS: Incorrect handling of the initial HCI ACL_MTU handshake packet leads to crash of bluetooth host layer","id":"CVE-2021-3329","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-02-26"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"DoS: Invalid Initialization in le_read_buffer_size_complete","id":"CVE-2023-0397","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-01-19"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Usb bluetooth device ACL read cb buffer overflow","id":"CVE-2021-3966","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-01-11"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-09-30","vendors":["zephyrproject"]},"summary":"An out-of-bounds read in Zephyr RTOS CoAP server allows attackers to read uninitialized stack memory via crafted URI queries.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18416/"}
