HIGHPre-NVD 8.68.6—
EchelonGraph scoreMEDIUM confidence

This high-severity CVE scores 8.6 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.3% (16th percentile of EPSS-scored CVEs). GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).

The decoder in readFromDataView in lib0 before 0.2.119 can be tricked into reading more than it should from a buffer. The vulnerability allows reading past the decoders' view, thus exposing adjacent process memory. This can be anything that is currently in the head, for example credentials or logs. This is similar to but different from GHSA-r5c8-rf4w-qrq8.

A fix is available. Apply it within your standard update timelines at low or medium mission impact and sooner than that at high.

Exploitation none (CISA Vulnrichment) · Automatable yes (CISA Vulnrichment) · Technical impact partial (CISA Vulnrichment). Mission impact is CISA's Mission & Well-being decision point, and only you can judge it: high means the affected system is essential to your organisation's mission, or its compromise could cause irreversible harm to people.
