CVE-2026-67873 Vulnerability Summary

CVE-2026-67873: A heap-based buffer overflow exists in lib60870-C 2.4.0 in the server-side FileSegment ASDU encoding path. The issue occurs because FileSegment_encode() validates only the standalone segment length via FileSegment_GetMaxDataSize() and does not verify the residual capacity of the current ASDU frame before encoding object fields and segment data

Assessing the Risk of CVE-2026-67873

Access Complexity Graph

The exploitability of CVE-2026-67873 depends on two key factors: attack complexity (the level of effort required to execute an exploit) and privileges required (the access level an attacker needs).

Exploitability Analysis for CVE-2026-67873

No exploitability data is available for CVE-2026-67873.

Understanding AC and PR

A lower complexity and fewer privilege requirements make exploitation easier. Security teams should evaluate these aspects to determine the urgency of mitigation strategies, such as patch management and access control policies.

Attack Complexity (AC) measures the difficulty in executing an exploit. A high AC means that specific conditions must be met, making an attack more challenging, while a low AC means the vulnerability can be exploited with minimal effort.

Privileges Required (PR) determine the level of system access necessary for an attack. Vulnerabilities requiring no privileges are more accessible to attackers, whereas high privilege requirements limit exploitation to authorized users with elevated access.

CVSS Score Breakdown Chart

Above is the CVSS Sub-score Breakdown for CVE-2026-67873, illustrating how Base, Impact, and Exploitability factors combine to form the overall severity rating. A higher sub-score typically indicates a more severe or easier-to-exploit vulnerability.
