Summary

CVE-2026-108133 is a high-severity Release of Invalid Pointer or Reference (CWE-763) vulnerability. Its CVSS base score is 7.8 (High).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique OS Credential Dumping (T1003); ranked at the 23th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SA-15 (Development Process, Standards, and Tools) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Mitigating Controls

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Developer testing and evaluation directly exercises deallocation paths and can find incorrect release calls or mismatched alloc/free pairs.

Documented development standards and tools can mandate safe memory-management idioms and static checks that avoid invalid releases.

An SDLC that incorporates security can embed memory-safety requirements, reducing the chance such coding errors are introduced.

Engineering principles require correct resource management and memory-release patterns that stop invalid pointer releases from being coded.

blocks

A.8.25 mandates a secure-SDLC process (requirements, checkpoints, secure coding guidelines, testing, training) but does not itself stop an invalid pointer/reference from being released; the coding defect can still be written, reach production, and be exploitable.

blocks

A.8.26 only requires that security requirements (including resilience against attacks such as buffer overflows) be identified and specified during development; it does not itself enforce, implement or assure those requirements, so the invalid-pointer weakness can still arise and be exploited.

blocks

A.8.27 mandates establishing and applying secure engineering principles (e.g. least privilege, security by design, hardening) during architecture and development; it does not stop an invalid pointer release from being exploitable once the coding error exists in the product.

prevents

Secure coding standards directly prohibit mismatched or incorrect pointer-release calls.

finds

Security testing can detect invalid pointer releases before release.
