CVE-2026-35084
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 · uneditedA remote attacker with user privileges can exploit a stack buffer overflow in dali-devconfig to gain full system access as root.
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 · moderate confidenceA stack buffer overflow vulnerability in dali-devconfig allows an authenticated remote attacker to overflow a stack-allocated buffer and execute arbitrary code with root privileges, achieving full system compromise.

Affected products & versions What the vendor confirmedThe version ranges the vendor confirmed as vulnerable. If your version sits inside a range here, treat yourself as exposed until you have upgraded.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify the device productCheck the system or web interface for the product name - look for 'Mbs Solutions Universal Gateway' or check /proc/cpuinfo, /etc/version, or the device web UI for product identificationAffected if The device is NOT the Mbs Solutions Universal Gateway - different products are not affected by this specific CVE
-
Check the installed firmware versionAccess the device management interface, check system info page, or use CLI command like 'version', 'show version', or check /etc/firmware_version if availableAffected if The firmware version is any version below 6_00_07 (e.g., 6_00_06, 5_xx_xx, etc.) - versions prior to 6_00_07 contain the vulnerable code
-
Verify dali-devconfig utility presence and exposureCheck if the dali-devconfig binary exists on the system - look in /usr/bin/, /sbin/, or similar directories; check if the service is listening on network ports using 'netstat -tulpn' or 'ss -tulpn'Affected if dali-devconfig is present AND exposed on a network interface - the vulnerability requires this specific utility to be accessible
-
Assess authentication and user accessReview user accounts configured on the device - check /etc/passwd, user management UI, or authentication logs to determine if non-privileged user accounts existAffected if There are authenticated user accounts with any privilege level - the CVE states an attacker needs 'existing user privileges' to exploit this flaw
The environment is affected only if the device is a Mbs Solutions Universal Gateway running firmware version below 6_00_07 with dali-devconfig accessible to authenticated users on the network.

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.
dbcve · scoped6_00_07
Restrict network access to dali-devconfig, implement strict input validation on all user-controlled data entering the vulnerable buffer, and apply vendor security patches when available.
Universal Gateway Firmware version 6_00_07
- 1. Obtain the Universal Gateway Firmware version 6_00_07 from the vendor's official support portal or download center
- 2. Access the device administration interface or console
- 3. Navigate to the firmware update or system upgrade section
- 4. Upload the firmware version 6_00_07 file
- 5. Apply the firmware update and wait for the device to reboot
- 6. Verify the firmware version has been successfully updated to 6_00_07
- 7. Confirm the dali-devconfig component is no longer vulnerable by testing or reviewing release notes
