CVE-2026-47146
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 · uneditedIn EmberZNet v9.0.2 and earlier, malformed Color Control messages can lead to asserts that terminate the process. These messages must come from a device that has already joined the network. Only devices supporting the Color Control cluster may be impacted.
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 · high confidenceIn EmberZNet Zigbee stack versions 9.0.2 and earlier, specially crafted malformed Color Control cluster messages trigger assertion failures that crash the process. An attacker must have a previously authenticated device on the network to send these malicious packets, making this a network-adjacent denial-of-service vulnerability affecting only devices implementing the Color Control cluster.

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 EmberZNet firmware versionRetrieve the firmware version from the device firmware image, boot logs, or management interface. This is typically displayed in startup diagnostics or available via debug commands such as 'version' or 'info' depending on the device implementation.Affected if The installed EmberZNet version is 9.0.2 or earlier.
-
Confirm Color Control cluster implementationExamine the device's Zigbee cluster configuration or endpoint description to determine whether the Color Control cluster (cluster ID 0x0300) is included in any of the device's endpoints.Affected if The device implements the Color Control cluster (Zigbee cluster ID 0x0300).
-
Verify network-adjacent attack surfaceReview network configuration logs or access control settings to confirm whether unauthenticated or previously authenticated devices can send Zigbee cluster messages to the affected device.Affected if The device accepts Color Control cluster messages from other network devices without additional validation beyond standard Zigbee authentication.
A device is affected if it runs EmberZNet version 9.0.2 or earlier AND implements the Color Control cluster (cluster ID 0x0300), making it vulnerable to denial-of-service from malformed packets sent by authenticated network devices.

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 · scopedApply the EmberZNet vendor patch for this vulnerability and update all affected devices to the patched firmware version. Network segmentation and monitoring for anomalous Color Control messages can provide interim detection capability.
EmberZNet version newer than 9.0.2 (specific fixed release available from Silicon Labs)
- 1. Identify all EmberZNet devices running version 9.0.2 or earlier in your network
- 2. Check Silicon Labs documentation or release notes for the fixed version (version newer than 9.0.2)
- 3. Plan a maintenance window for the upgrade, ensuring network continuity
- 4. Upgrade EmberZNet to the fixed release version
- 5. After upgrade, verify that the Color Control cluster is functioning properly
- 6. Test with legitimate Color Control commands to confirm the assert no longer triggers on malformed messages
