Official Description
Heap out-of-bounds read in PKCS7 parsing. A crafted PKCS7 message can trigger an OOB read on the heap. The missing bounds check is in the indefinite-length end-of-content verification loop in PKCS7_VerifySignedData().
Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-5392 requires adjacent network access, limiting remote exploitation but still posing risk in shared or local network environments.
The vulnerability requires no privileges and no user interaction, making it a prime target for automated exploitation campaigns and worm-like propagation.
A proof-of-concept (PoC) exploit exists for CVE-2026-5392. While not yet confirmed in active campaigns, the availability of PoC code increases exploitation risk substantially.
