Overview

CVE-2026-97863 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on September 25, 2026.

A security analyst who subsequently executes the generated .sh file unmodified would run the injected commands with their own privileges, potentially exposing fireSIGHT Manager credentials, modifying ACL rules, or compromising the analyst workstation. Additionally, the module contai
