CVE-2026-27520 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 8.7/10 on the CVSS scale. Binardat 10G08-0800GSM network switch firmware versions prior to V300SP10260209 store a user password in a client-side cookie as a Base64-encoded value accessible via the web interface. Because Base64 is reversible and provides no confidentiality, an attacker who can access the cookie value can recover the plaintext password.. EPSS estimates a 0.20% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
