Description
A vulnerability was detected in GL.iNet GL-MT3000 up to 4.4.5. The affected element is the function logread.get_system_log of the file /usr/lib/oui-httpd/rpc/logread of the component Logread Lua RPC plugin. The manipulation of the argument module results in command injection. The attack can be launched remotely. The exploit is now public and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure and confirmed the existence of the vulnerability.
Detection & mitigation playbook
VulnerabilityDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for the affected component. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.
Remediation status
No patched version of the affected component has shipped for CVE-2026-18598 yet. Where your build allows, override or pin the dependency away from the vulnerable range, and apply any maintainer-recommended mitigation.
Mitigate without a patch
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
How O3 protects you
O3 pinpoints whether CVE-2026-18598 is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.
Tailored to CVE-2026-18598. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
