CVE-2026-18671
IBM i 7.6, 7.5, 7.4, and 7.3 could allow an authenticated attacker to force a NetServer server thread exception, caused by an integer overflow during bounds checking in request processing.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.36%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
