CVE-2026-85490
When Brocade ASCG before 3.5.0 processes support bundle archives ingested from remote compromised endpoints, the application fails to sanitize path traversal sequences contained within archive entries prior to extraction. An unauthenticated remote attacker capable of sending or intercepting ingested archive files can leverage this flaw to write arbitrary files to restricted locations on the underlying host, potentially leading to remote code execution.
CVSS
- Version: 4.0

- Base score: 7.7
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.27%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 18
- Score date: 10/13/2026
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).
