Summary

CVE-2026-46463 is a medium-severity Integer Overflow or Wraparound (CWE-190) vulnerability in Dell Data Domain Operating System. Its CVSS base score is 6.5 (Medium).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 16th 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 SI-10 (Information Input Validation) and SC-5 (Denial-of-service Protection) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise TechniquesAI

T1190 Exploit Public-Facing Application Initial Access
Adversaries may attempt to exploit a weakness in an Internet-facing host or system to initially access a network.
Why these techniques?

Unauthenticated remote exploitation of a public-facing appliance directly matches T1190; integer overflow leads only to DoS with no code execution or other behaviors described.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

prevent

Directly enforces validation of inputs to block malformed data that triggers the integer overflow (CWE-190) leading to DoS.

prevent

Provides mechanisms to limit or absorb the denial-of-service impact from remote exploitation of the overflow.

prevent

Restricts remote network access paths that an unauthenticated attacker would use to reach the vulnerable Data Domain service.

detects

Security testing in development can detect integer overflows before release.

prevents

Secure SDLC mandates input validation and arithmetic checks that prevent integer overflows.

degrades

Application security requirements include bounds checking and safe arithmetic to avoid overflow conditions.

degrades

Secure architecture principles require defensive coding patterns that mitigate integer wraparound risks.

prevents

Secure coding standards explicitly forbid unsafe integer operations and mandate overflow-safe constructs.
