What’s Vulnerable › Vulnerabilities
CVE-2026-81581: User input in WibuKey is used (without proper sanitization) to compute the address of a pointer, which can be exploited to let the user point to any storage, to which Windows responds with a denial of service.
- Severity: high (CVSS 8.8 v3.1)
- Exploited in the wild: not listed in CISA KEV
- EPSS: 0.2% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days
- Public exploit or detection template: none known
- Published: 2026-08-27 · updated 2026-09-03
- Weakness: CWE-119
Description
Improper validation of memory boundaries in WibuKey64.sys of WibuKey up to 6.70 for Windows can be exploited by an attacker by setting the pointers outside the scope of the program. This usually results in a denial of service, yet we cannot rule out the possibility of exploits that can cause Remote Code Execution and Privilege Escalation (since the driver runs with system privileges).
Affected products
- wibu-systems-ag wibukey: before 6.71 — fixed in 6.71
How to fix
Upgrade to a fixed version: wibu-systems-ag wibukey 6.71. Check the vendor advisory for mitigations.
