CVE-2026-48137
There is an untrusted pointer dereference vulnerability in the NI grpc-device sideband streaming API that may allow an attacker to cause an arbitrary memory dereference, potentially resulting in remote code execution.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.80%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
