Last modified

CVE-2026-78012 is a critical-severity vulnerability rated 9.8/10 on the CVSS scale. An issue in the NetStaX EtherNet/IP Stack prior to v5.6.1 could allow a large Class 3 explicit-message request to exceed the application-side receive buffer without generating an error or warning. The result could be memory corruption, a device crash, or a potential remote attack vector without the originating device receiving a CIP error indicating that the request could not be processed.. EPSS estimates a 0.47% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
