CVE-2026-127125RT-Labs P-Net null pointer dereference
CVE-2026-127125 is a null pointer dereference in RT-Labs P-Net, rated medium (6.0 on CVSS 4.0).
Why this priority: Medium severity, with no exploitation signal.
Published · Updated · NVD status: Deferred
What it is
Code uses a null pointer and crashes, usually taking the service down.
How it is reached
An attacker can exploit it from the same local network segment, without an account, and nobody has to click anything. Success also depends on conditions the attacker does not fully control.
What an attacker gains
A successful attack can take it offline. In practice, this kind of flaw lets an attacker crash the process, read memory, or in the worst case run code.
Is it being exploited?
There is no public report of exploitation yet.
What to do
- Upgrade RT-Labs P-Net to 1.0.4 or later.
- Segment the networks that can reach it.
Description from NVD
P-Net before 1.0.4 aborts the Application Relationship of an RPC session when a fragment of a response has been resent without being acknowledged, without checking that the session has an Application Relationship. A request for an existing Application Relationship that is sent on another activity than its Connect, and gets a fragmented response, is handled on a session without one. If the response is not acknowledged, a NULL pointer is dereferenced and the device crashes. A conformant IO-controller does not send such requests. The attacker must have observed the AR UUID of an established Application Relationship and requires ADJACENT network access.
What this means for your architecture.
A CVE names a product. Whether it matters depends on where that product sits in your systems: what reaches it, which trust boundary it guards and what it can reach once compromised. Veriom maps your components, their relationships and your trust boundaries from your code, cloud and delivery evidence, so you can see where a component like this sits. The radar itself does not look at your systems.
Components it touches
- Native code: operating systems, browsers and firmware. The flaw sits wherever native code reads untrusted data.
- Network appliances and media or file parsers. The flaw sits wherever native code reads untrusted data.
Trust boundaries in play
- Local network segment. The attacker must share a network segment with the target.
- Wherever native code reads untrusted data. An attacker who crosses it can crash the process, read memory, or in the worst case run code.
Questions to answer about your own systems
- Where does RT-Labs P-Net run in your systems, and at which version?
- Which network segments can reach them?
- What can it reach once compromised: which data stores, secrets and services?
