7.2 · HIGH
Published Mar 17, 2026 CWE-78 EPSS 1.51% (73th pctl)

Overview

CVE-2026-23759 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on March 17, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.2 (HIGH).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.2, rated HIGH. It can be exploited remotely over the network. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical Description

Perle IOLAN STS/SCS terminal server models with firmware versions prior to 6.0 allow authenticated OS command injection via the restricted shell accessed over Telnet or SSH. The shell 'ps' command does not perform proper argument sanitization and passes user-supplied parameters into an 'sh -c' invocation running as root. An authenticated attacker who can log in to the device can inject shell metacharacters after the 'ps' subcommand to execute arbitrary OS commands with root privileges, leading to full compromise of the underlying operating system.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
