It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-79840 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Hewlett Packard Enterprise HPE NonStop XABroker. 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-2026-79840/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-79840/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-79840","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-79840/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-79840","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-grc6-c3v3-rgpj"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"HPE NonStop XABroker","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A buffer overflow in HPE NonStop XABroker allows attackers to cause memory corruption and application crashes.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"hpe","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.3,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-121","name":"Stack-based Buffer Overflow"}],"description":"A buffer overflow vulnerability in HPE NonStop XABroker may cause memory corruption, resulting in application crash.","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":"HPE NonStop XABroker - Memory corruption vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-79840","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":"HPE NonStop RDMA SERVICES NSK - Out-of-bounds memory write vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-79841"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"HPE NonStop ODBC/MX Server - Memory corruption vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-79839"},"products":["HPE NonStop XABroker"],"published":"2026-10-15","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":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-15","vendors":["Hewlett Packard Enterprise"]},"summary":"A buffer overflow in HPE NonStop XABroker allows attackers to cause memory corruption and application crashes.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-79840/"}
