CVE-2026-90464: Fireware OS Authenticated File Modification Vulnerability

Sources read

Source agreement

Tam uyum

Evidence confidence

%63

Short explanation

Missing command validation in WatchGuard Fireware OS firewall diagnostic commands allows a remote, authenticated attacker to modify files with root privileges. The patch status is currently unknown.

Why does it matter?

The ability of an authenticated attacker to create or modify arbitrary files and adjust kernel parameters with root privileges via management CLI commands poses significant integrity risks to the affected system.

What should be done?

Follow official vendor advisories
Restrict and secure management CLI access
Review access controls and authorization levels

Show the technical text from the sources

An external control of file path vulnerability in a WatchGuard Fireware OS firewall diagnostic command allows a remote, authenticated attacker with at least read-only (Device Monitor) privileges and access to the management CLI to create, truncate, or overwrite arbitrary files and modify kernel parameters with root privileges by submitting a specially crafted command.
