No fix is confirmed yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for the fix.

If configured as a server, CodeMeter Runtime before versions 8.41a and 9.10 issues handles per connection and relies on a cryptographically weak SID as sole authenticator. An attacker can brute-force the SID, recover another session's handle number, and read license information belonging to another handle.

Exploitation none (CISA Vulnrichment) · Automatable no (CISA Vulnrichment) · Technical impact partial (CISA Vulnrichment). All three are CISA's SSVC values (Vulnrichment). EchelonGraph applied CISA's decision table to them; CISA publishes SSVC inputs and the table, not a decision for each CVE. Mission impact is CISA's Mission & Well-being decision point, and only you can judge it. CISA's table makes it high when Mission Prevalence is Essential — the vulnerable component "directly provides capabilities that constitute at least one MEF for at least one entity" (MEF: mission essential function) — or when Public Well-Being Impact is Irreversible: "multiple fatalities are likely", the cyber-physical system "is likely lost or destroyed", "extreme or serious externalities" are imposed on other parties, or social systems such as elections or the financial grid "are destabilized and potentially collapse".

Data Freshness Timeline

(refreshed 22× in last 7d / 100× in last 30d)

Each row is a time one of our pipelines fetched, updated or re-scored this CVE. For example, "NVD update" means NVD published or revised its analysis for this CVE; "MITRE cvelistV5" means we ingested or refreshed it from the CNA feed. An arrow marks a change the record states ("CVSS v3 → 9.1"); EPSS and GHSA rows show the values recorded at that time, not what changed (EPSS values are rounded; hover one for the exact figures). Most recent first.

Showing the most recent 99 of 165 refreshes on record for this CVE.

A repeat, a row identical to one the same pipeline wrote less than 10 seconds earlier, is not a separate refresh and is not counted. 1 repeat row among the latest 100 is merged into the row it repeats. The 66 oldest rows on record are not shown and were not checked, so the counts can still include repeats.

Frequently asked(5)

What is CVE-2026-81576?
CVE-2026-81576 is a high-severity vulnerability; its CVE record was published on August 27, 2026. If configured as a server, CodeMeter Runtime before versions 8.41a and 9.10 issues handles per connection and relies on a cryptographically weak SID as sole authenticator. An attacker can brute-force the SID, recover another session's handle number, and read license information belonging to another…
When was CVE-2026-81576 made public?
CVE-2026-81576 was made public on August 25, 2026: that is the date its CVE record's CNA, WIBU-SYSTEMS AG, gives for when the vulnerability was made public. The CVE record itself was published on August 27, 2026. EchelonGraph's copy of the record carries a last-modified date of September 1, 2026; the record at its source may have been updated since.
Is CVE-2026-81576 actively exploited?
CVE-2026-81576 is not currently on CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. FIRST EPSS estimates a 0.3% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days (25th percentile of EPSS-scored CVEs).
What is the CVSS score of CVE-2026-81576?
CVE-2026-81576 has a CVSS base score of 7.7 (a secondary CVSS source that NVD displays; NVD's own analysis pending).
How do I remediate CVE-2026-81576?
No fix for CVE-2026-81576 is confirmed yet. Until one is published, restrict network exposure of the affected system or apply the vendor's mitigation — for example, keep it off the internet or limit it to trusted networks — and watch the vendor's advisory for the fix. The vendor advisories EchelonGraph has for CVE-2026-81576 are linked in the Vendor Advisories panel on this page.
