CVE-2026-46538 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.9/10 on the CVSS scale. Microsoft UFO open-source framework for intelligent automation across devices and platforms. In 3.0.1-4-ge2626659, Microsoft UFO's constellation client tracks pending task responses by session_id only and does not verify that a TASK_END message came from the device that originally received the task. EPSS estimates a 0.22% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Description

Microsoft UFO open-source framework for intelligent automation across devices and platforms. In 3.0.1-4-ge2626659, Microsoft UFO's constellation client tracks pending task responses by session_id only and does not verify that a TASK_END message came from the device that originally received the task. When the constellation sends a task to a target device, it records a pending Future under a session key. The pending task record stores the expected device ID, but the completion path ignores that binding. If another authenticated peer device sends a forged TASK_END with the same session_id, the constellation accepts the response and completes the victim device's pending Future with attacker-controlled result data. This is an authenticated cross-device task-result injection issue.
