CVE-2026-19656
ScadaLTS 2.7.8.1 exposes a server-side method that lacks authorization checks, allowing any authenticated user (including one holding only low-privilege, read-only permissions) to execute arbitrary operating system commands on the host.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.29%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
