CVE-2026-89147
Net-SNMP through 5.9.5.2 Denial of Service via Blocking Unauthenticated SMUX Read
02 Description
Net-SNMP through 5.9.5.2 Denial of Service via Blocking Unauthenticated SMUX Read
03 Exploitation and scoring
- Exploitation
- Public exploit code exists. CISA's assessment records a public proof of concept. That is not a report of exploitation in the wild.
- SSVC decision
- ExploitationpocPublic proof-of-concept exploit code exists. Not a report of exploitation in the wild.
- AutomatableyesAn attacker can reliably automate reconnaissance through exploitation, so this scales.
- Technical ImpactpartialSuccessful exploitation gives limited control of the vulnerable component.
- EPSS probability
- 0.48% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days.
- EPSS percentile
- Equal to or higher than the score of 41.5% of scored records. A rank, not a probability.
- NVD base score
- 8.7 (CVSS v4.0), scored by the NVD independently of the CNA.
- NVD CVSS 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/E:X/CR:X/IR:X/AR:X/MAV:X/MAC:X/MAT:X/MPR:X/MUI:X/MVC:X/MVI:X/MVA:X/MSC:X/MSI:X/MSA:X/S:X/AU:X/R:X/V:X/RE:X/U:X
- NVD analysis status
- Awaiting Analysis. NVD last modified this record on 2026-09-24.
- Red Hat severity
- No Red Hat rating. Red Hat rates the CVEs that affect its products.
Exploit-prediction scores from FIRST. Independent scoring and analysis status from the NVD. Vendor severity from Red Hat. Exploitation assessment and catalog membership from CISA.
