CVE-2026-48132
As a result, a specially crafted or malformed packet can cause the VPN processing service to terminate unexpectedly, leading to denial of service (temporary interruption of VPN negotiations/traffic).
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.14%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
