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

The CVE record's CNA (VulnCheck) lists grokability snipe-it versions 8.6.3 up to but not including 8.7.0 as affected, and grokability snipe-it versions 8.7.0 as unaffected. No release containing a fix is confirmed on record.

Snipe-IT before 8.7.0 fails to validate soft-deleted state in API checkout endpoints, allowing authenticated users with checkout permissions to bind live inventory to trashed targets. Attackers can submit POST requests to hardware, component, or consumable checkout endpoints with soft-deleted user, asset, or location IDs to create orphaned references that corrupt the asset ledger and audit trails.

EG Risk is EchelonGraph's 0–100 priority score: it fuses intrinsic severity with real-world exploitation and automatability so you can rank equal-severity CVEs and fix the most dangerous first. Higher = act sooner. Distinct from the 0–10 EG Score (severity).

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 18× in last 7d / 78× 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.

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. 2 repeat rows among the latest 95 are merged into the row they repeat.

Frequently asked(5)

What is CVE-2026-86768?
CVE-2026-86768 is a medium-severity vulnerability; its CVE record was published on September 9, 2026. Snipe-IT before 8.7.0 fails to validate soft-deleted state in API checkout endpoints, allowing authenticated users with checkout permissions to bind live inventory to trashed targets. Attackers can submit POST requests to hardware, component, or consumable checkout endpoints with soft-deleted user,…
When was CVE-2026-86768 made public?
CVE-2026-86768 was made public on August 24, 2026: that is the date its CVE record's CNA, VulnCheck, gives for when the vulnerability was made public. The CVE record itself was published on September 9, 2026. EchelonGraph's copy of the record carries a last-modified date of September 16, 2026; the record at its source may have been updated since.
Is CVE-2026-86768 actively exploited?
CVE-2026-86768 is not currently on CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. FIRST EPSS estimates a 0.3% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days (26th percentile of EPSS-scored CVEs).
What is the CVSS score of CVE-2026-86768?
CVE-2026-86768 has a CVSS base score of 5.4 (a secondary CVSS source that NVD displays; NVD's own analysis pending).
How do I remediate CVE-2026-86768?
No fix for CVE-2026-86768 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 CVE record's CNA (VulnCheck) lists grokability snipe-it versions 8.6.3 up to but not including 8.7.0 as affected, and grokability snipe-it versions 8.7.0 as unaffected. No release containing a fix is confirmed on record. The vendor advisories EchelonGraph has for CVE-2026-86768 are linked in the Vendor Advisories panel on this page.
