Summary

CVE-2026-109338 is a high-severity Uncaught Exception (CWE-248) vulnerability. Its CVSS base score is 7.1 (High).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Endpoint Denial of Service (T1499); ranked at the 22th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-8 (Security and Privacy Engineering Principles) and SC-24 (Fail in Known State) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Security engineering principles include robust exception management to keep the system in a defined state.

Fail-in-known-state reduces the impact when an uncaught exception occurs by preserving a safe condition.

Error handling requirements force structured catching and response to exceptions instead of allowing them to propagate uncaught.
