CVE-2026-14786: radareorg radare2 str.c r_str_word_get0set integer overflow
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 7/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.18% (FIRST EPSS).
- Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- No fixed version is recorded, but the references include a patch (commit or PR) link.
- Severity is disputed: the assigning authority (CNA) scores it 4.8, NVD 1.9.
Low priority for now. See the fix and affected versions sections below.
