CRITICAL 9.8REMOTE
CVE-2026-71278 is a critical-severity flaw (CVSS 9.8) affecting affected software. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.
rust-iot-platform allows creating a "calc rule" via POST /calc-rule/create (api/src/controller/calc_rule_router.rs) containing an arbitrary field. This route does not take the AuthToken request guard used elsewhere in the application, making it reachable without authentication.
Why this priority
- Critical severity
- CISA SSVC: automatable with total technical impact
- Remotely exploitable, no login, no user action
A fixed release or distro patch exists.
