The vulnerabilities tracked by CVE-2026-20276 are related to insufficient control flow management issues that are grouped under the Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) CWE-691.
A vulnerability in the GRand Unified Bootloader (GRUB) for Cisco IOS XR Software could allow an unauthenticated attacker with physical access to the device to view sensitive files on the console using the GRUB bootloader command line. This vulnerability is due to the inclusion of unnecessary commands within the GRUB environment that allow sensitive files to be viewed. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by being connected to the console port of the Cisco IOS XR device when the device is power-cycled. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to view sensitive files that could be used to conduct additional attacks against the device.
A vulnerability in the Topology Discovery Service of Cisco One Platform Kit (onePK) in Cisco IOS Software, Cisco IOS XE Software, Cisco IOS XR Software, and Cisco NX-OS Software could allow an unauthenticated, adjacent attacker to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on an affected device. The vulnerability is due to insufficient length restrictions when the onePK Topology Discovery Service parses Cisco Discovery Protocol messages. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a malicious Cisco Discovery Protocol message to an affected device. An exploit could allow the attacker to cause a stack overflow, which could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code with administrative privileges, or to cause a process crash, which could result in a reload of the device and cause a DoS condition.
The SNMPv2 implementation in Cisco IOS XR allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (snmpd daemon reload) via a malformed SNMP packet, aka Bug ID CSCur25858.
Cisco IOS XR on ASR 9000 devices does not properly use compression for port-range and address-range encoding, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended Typhoon line-card ACL restrictions via transit traffic, aka Bug ID CSCup30133.
