Summary

CVE-2026-56787 is a medium-severity Off-by-one Error (CWE-193) vulnerability in Rtklib Rtklib. Its CVSS base score is 6.9 (Medium).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploitation for Privilege Escalation (T1068); ranked at the 26th 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-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SA-15 (Development Process, Standards, and Tools) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Vulnerability Data

RTKLIB through 2.4.3 contains an off-by-one out-of-bounds read vulnerability in the decode_ssr3 function at src/rtcm3.c:1446 that allows remote attackers to trigger a global buffer overflow via crafted RTCM3 SSR messages with attacker-controlled signal mode fields. Remote attackers can exploit this…
