However, the entry is marked with a state of 'REJECTED,' indicating that after review, this CVE identifier was not accepted as a valid vulnerability. There are no technical details, affected versions, or exploit information provided, and no CVSS score is assigned. The absence of patch links, known exploits, or technical details further supports that this is not an active or recognized security threat. The rejection status typically means that the reported issue either does not meet the criteria for a CVE, was a duplicate, or was otherwise invalidated during the CVE assignment process.

Since CVE-2022-26038 is a rejected CVE with no valid vulnerability associated, there is no direct impact on any systems or organizations, including those in Europe. No exploitation or attack vectors are known or documented, and therefore no confidentiality, integrity, or availability risks are present from this identifier. European organizations are not at risk from this non-existent threat.

No specific mitigation actions are necessary for CVE-2022-26038 as it does not represent a valid vulnerability. Organizations should continue to follow standard security best practices and monitor official vulnerability databases and vendor advisories for confirmed and active threats.
