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-2026-88831 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Red Hat Hardened Images. 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-2026-88831/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-88831/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-88831","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-88831/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-88831","record":{"aliases":["AZL-105131","BELL-CVE-2026-88831","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-88831","ECHO-00bb-2927-406e","GHSA-w27x-jw4w-69xf","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-88831"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"BusyBox httpd","requires_auth":"none","summary":"BusyBox httpd fails open on invalid CIDR rules, allowing attackers to bypass IP-based access controls.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-636","name":"Not Failing Securely"}],"description":"BusyBox httpd IP deny rules with invalid CIDR prefix lengths fail open, leaving a parsed IP with a zeroed mask so the rule matches no clients.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Busybox: busybox: httpd silently fails open when ip deny rules contain invalid cidr prefix lengths","id":"CVE-2026-88831","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Busybox: busybox: romfs volume id parsing performs unbounded memcpy into fixed-size label buffer, causing heap overflow","id":"CVE-2026-88832"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Busybox: busybox: tls montgomery reduction allocates bytes instead of digits, causing a pre-auth heap buffer overflow","id":"CVE-2026-88830"},"products":["Red Hat Hardened Images"],"published":"2026-09-23","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":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-09-25","vendors":["Red Hat"]},"summary":"BusyBox httpd fails open on invalid CIDR rules, allowing attackers to bypass IP-based access controls.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-88831/"}
