An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-78008 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: WatchGuard Fireware OS. 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-2026-78008/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-78008/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-78008","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-78008/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-78008","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-48wp-98wm-5fpp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Firewall OS","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"An authenticated administrator can cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code via a buffer overflow in the WatchGuard Fireware OS Management Web UI.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WatchGuard","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8.6,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-787","name":"Out-of-bounds Write"}],"description":"A buffer overflow vulnerability in the WatchGuard Fireware OS Management Web UI allows an authenticated administrator with network access to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition or potentially execute arbitrary code by sending specially crafted network traffic.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Fireware OS Authenticated Buffer Overflow in wgagent","id":"CVE-2026-78008","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Fireware OS Out-of-Bounds Read in iked Allows Unauthenticated Denial of Service (DoS)","id":"CVE-2026-78009"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"The Events Calendar \u003c= 6.17.4 - Unauthenticated PHP Object Injection to Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2026-78006"},"products":["Fireware OS"],"published":"2026-08-27","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"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":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-09-03","vendors":["WatchGuard"]},"summary":"An authenticated administrator can cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code via a buffer overflow in the WatchGuard Fireware OS Management Web UI.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-78008/"}
