CVE-2026-102726Unbounded PPP IPCP Option Parsing Causes a Worker Stall and Out-of-bounds Read
High 7.1
In plain English
A high-severity out-of-bounds read in Eclipse ThreadX NetX Duo from Eclipse Foundation. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.2% (higher than 5% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
In Eclipse ThreadX NetX Duo versions 6.0 through 6.5.2.202603a, the PPP IPCP code parses a peer's Configure-Nak without validating each option's length. A malicious PPP peer can stall the PPP thread indefinitely with a zero-length option, taking the link down, and can read back up to four bytes of packet-buffer memory per exchange with a short address option.
