Ibm Openbmc 1110.00 – 1110.11
Raw vector
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:LSummary
CVE-2026-7254 is a medium-severity Improper Validation of Specified Quantity in Input (CWE-1284) vulnerability in Ibm Openbmc. Its CVSS base score is 5.3 (Medium).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Application or System Exploitation (T1499.004); ranked at the 15th 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 SC-5 (Denial-of-service Protection) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Control response
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Directly enforces validation of input quantities, mitigating the CWE-1284 flaw that unauthenticated users exploit to trigger DoS.
Provides explicit denial-of-service protection mechanisms to limit the impact of network-based resource exhaustion attacks.
Restricts network traffic at system boundaries, reducing exposure of the vulnerable BMC interfaces to unauthenticated external actors.

Security testing in development can detect missing quantity validation but does not itself implement the control.
Secure development lifecycle mandates input validation for quantity fields, directly preventing CWE-1284.
Application security requirements explicitly call for validation of size/length inputs, mitigating CWE-1284.
Secure architecture principles encourage robust input handling but do not specifically address quantity validation.
Secure coding standards require explicit checks on numeric quantity inputs, fully addressing CWE-1284.
