CVE-2026-23827 | Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution via Heap Buffer Overflow in Network Management Service

A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in a Network management service of AOS-8 and AOS-10 that could allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to achieve remote code execution. Successful exploitation could allow an unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code as a privileged user on the underlying operating system, potentially leading to a system compromise. Exploitation may also result in a denial-of-service (DoS) condition affecting the impacted system process.

Attack vector (AV:N)
Could be attacked over the internet or any normal routed network—not just someone sitting at the machine.
Attack complexity (AC:L)
Once they can reach the bug, pulling it off is straightforward—no weird race conditions or rare setup.
Privileges required (PR:N)
No account or special rights needed—anonymous or random user is enough.
User interaction (UI:N)
Nobody has to click “OK” or open a trap file; it can work without a victim helping.
Scope (S:U)
Damage stays in the same “trust bubble” as the broken component—no big spill into unrelated systems.
Confidentiality (C:N)
Doesn’t really leak secrets in a meaningful way.
Integrity (I:N)
Data isn’t meaningfully altered or forged.
Availability (A:H)
Could take the service down hard or make it unusable for people who depend on it.
