A successful exploit could allow the attacker to connect to an affected device and send crafted input that could be executed as code with&nbsp;root privileges. The exploitation of this vulnerability could also cause the S1HAL process to crash, which could cause the device to reload.","published":"2026-09-02T17:17:31.547","modified":"2026-09-02T17:17:31.547","cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"CRITICAL","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"epss":null,"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":null,"affectedPackages":[],"fix":null,"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://sec.cloudapps.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-n9k-s1-rce-EH8dEtr"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","NVD","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-09-02T17:17:31.547"}}
