CVE-2026-76433
Status: AnalyzedMedium (5.3)—
A vulnerability in the client provisioning download feature of Cisco ISE and Cisco ISE-PIC could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to access protected files on an affected device.
This vulnerability is due to insufficient validation of directory traversal character sequences in a user-supplied path when the software processes provisioning resource requests. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted request to the provisioning download service. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to access protected files without authentication, potentially exposing sensitive information.
CVSS
- Version: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N
- Base score: 5.3
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 1.27%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 69
- Score date: 10/1/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
