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-2026-8686 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: FreeRTOS coreMQTT. 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-2026-8686/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-8686/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-8686","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-8686/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-8686","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6qh9-r6jp-2wxc"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"MQTT client library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A missing bounds check in the MQTT v5.0 property parser allows a malicious broker to cause a denial of service in applications using the coreMQTT library.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"AMZN","cpe":[{"product":"coremqtt","vendor":"freertos"}],"cvss":{"score":8.7,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-125","name":"Out-of-bounds Read"}],"description":"Missing bounds validation in the MQTT v5.0 property parser in coreMQTT before 5.0.1 allows an MQTT broker to cause a denial of service by sending a crafted packet.\n\nTo remediate this issue, users should upgrade to v5.0.1.","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":"DoS from MQTT v5.0 Deserialization Fault in core MQTT","id":"CVE-2026-8686","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Missing authorization in Advance Nav Menu Manager","id":"CVE-2026-8688"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Infility Global \u003c= 2.15.16 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) SQL Injection via 'orderby' Parameter","id":"CVE-2026-8685"},"products":["coreMQTT"],"published":"2026-05-15","related":[],"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":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-05-15","vendors":["FreeRTOS"]},"summary":"A missing bounds check in the MQTT v5.0 property parser allows a malicious broker to cause a denial of service in applications using the coreMQTT library.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-8686/"}
