PatchSiren cyber security CVE debrief
CVE-2026-95107 Eclipse Foundation CVE debrief
A vulnerability in Eclipse ThreadX allows an attacker to corrupt the manager object pool by allocating an object of a size that overflows, causing the object pool to serve a block that is too small. This can lead to the manager writing its private header past the end of the block and into neighboring memory. The issue arises when the `txm_module_object_allocate` function is called with a size that overflows when the Module Manager adds its own 16-byte private header. Defenders responsible for Eclipse ThreadX deployments should assess exposure and prioritize remediation due to the potential for object pool corruption and system instability.

Who should care
Defenders responsible for Eclipse ThreadX deployments should assess exposure and prioritize remediation. This vulnerability can lead to a corruption of the manager object pool, potentially causing system instability or crashes.
Why it matters
Defenders responsible for Eclipse ThreadX deployments should assess exposure and prioritize remediation due to the potential for object pool corruption and system instability.
- Corruption of the manager object pool, potentially causing system instability or crashes
- Possible denial of service due to object pool corruption
- Potential for attackers to exploit this vulnerability to cause system instability or crashes
- Verification of vendor-provided patches and updates is necessary to prevent exploitation
Technical summary
The vulnerability occurs when the `txm_module_object_allocate` function is called with a size that overflows when the Module Manager adds its own 16-byte private header. This causes the object pool to serve a block that is too small, leading to a corruption of the manager object pool. The issue affects Eclipse ThreadX versions 6.0.1 to 6.5.1.202602a and can lead to system instability or crashes if exploited. Defenders should review vendor-provided patches and updates to prevent exploitation and monitor system logs for potential exploitation attempts.
Defensive priority
High
Recommended defensive actions
- Assess exposure and prioritize remediation for Eclipse ThreadX versions 6.0.1 to 6.5.1.202602a
- Verify vendor-provided patches and updates for Eclipse ThreadX
- Monitor system logs for potential exploitation attempts
- Review compensating controls for exposed systems while remediation is scheduled and verified
- Check relevant monitoring, detection, and logs for exposed assets that need extra review
- Track exceptions, retest remediated assets, and close the item only after evidence is documented
- Confirm whether affected product deployments exist in managed environments and assign an owner for follow-up
