CVE-2026-20479
HighCVSS 7.5Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Elevated risk53th percentile - higher than 53% of all known CVEs
Summary
In Modem, a missing bounds check could lead to an out-of-bounds read, allowing remote denial of service if the UE connects to a rogue base station controlled by the attacker. No additional privileges or user interaction are needed.
Risk Assessment
An attacker with a rogue base station could disrupt modem operation, causing loss of network connectivity.
Recommendation
Apply patch MOLY00741071 which adds bounds checking.
Other vulnerabilities in Modem
See all- CVE-2026-68591Medium
In Modem, there is a possible escalation of privilege due to a permissions bypass. This could lead to local escalation of privilege if a malicious actor has already obtained the System privilege. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
- CVE-2026-68589Medium
In Modem, there is a possible out of bounds write due to a missing bounds check. This could lead to local escalation of privilege if a malicious actor has already obtained the System privilege. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
- CVE-2026-68588Medium
In Modem, there is a possible way (for XXX) to XXXXX due to an integer overflow. This could lead to remote denial of service if a UE has connected to a rogue base station controlled by the attacker, with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
- CVE-2026-20600Medium
In Modem, there is a possible application crash due to a logic error. This could lead to remote denial of service if a UE has connected to a rogue base station controlled by the attacker, with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.

- CVE-2026-20597Medium
In Modem, there is a possible out of bounds read due to a missing bounds check. This could lead to remote denial of service if a UE has connected to a rogue base station controlled by the attacker. No additional execution privileges or user interaction are needed for exploitation.
- CVE-2026-20596Medium
In Modem, there is a possible out of bounds read due to improper input validation. This could lead to remote denial of service if a UE has connected to a rogue base station controlled by the attacker. No additional execution privileges or user interaction are needed for exploitation.
