Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Ericsson Packet Core Controller (PCC) versions prior to 1.39 contain a vulnerability in Configuration Management, allowing an attacker to execute specifically crafted commands to reveal system secret through error messages.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · low confidence
Developing — this CVE was published recently and its authoritative NVD entry is still being established, so we're holding a technical summary until the source data settles rather than publish something unreliable. Re-checking after 2026-08-10.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

Ericsson Packet Core Controller version 1.39 or later

  1. 1. Identify the current installed version of Ericsson Packet Core Controller (PCC) by accessing the system's version management interface or running the appropriate version check command.
  2. 2. Confirm the current version is earlier than 1.39, which is the vulnerable version range.
  3. 3. Obtain the Ericsson Packet Core Controller version 1.39 or later from Eriksson's official software distribution channel.
  4. 4. Follow Eriksson's standard upgrade procedure for PCC, ensuring proper backup of configuration data before initiating the upgrade.
  5. 5. After upgrade completion, verify the new version is 1.39 or higher.
  6. 6. Test the Configuration Management functionality to confirm error messages no longer expose system secrets.
Caveat Review Eriksson's release notes for version 1.39 to check for any configuration or feature changes that may require adjustment
