CVE-2026-29645
NEMU (OpenXiangShan/NEMU) before v2025.12.r2 contains an improper instruction-validation flaw in its RISC-V Vector (RVV) decoder. The decoder does not correctly validate the funct3 field when decoding vsetvli/vsetivli/vsetvl, allowing certain invalid OP-V instruction encodings to be misinterpreted and executed as vset* configuration instructions rather than raising an illegal-instruction exception. This can be exploited by providing crafted RISC-V binaries to cause incorrect trap behavior, architectural state corruption/divergence, and potential denial of service in systems that rely on NEMU for correct execution or sandboxing.
CVSS

Vector CVSS AV:N/AC:L/PR:N: acceso remoto sin privilegios. Aplicación NEMU expuesta acepta binarios RISC-V malformados (CWE-131: validación deficiente) que corrompen estado arquitectónico (T1565.001) y causan negación de servicio mediante trap behavior incorrecto (T1499.004).
Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
