CVE-2026-10539: CWE-305 Authentication bypass by primary weakness in BMC Control-M/Server
A Control-M/Server communication command does not sufficiently filter or sanitize user-supplied input. Under certain conditions, this issue may allow an unauthenticated attacker to execute unauthorized commands on the affected server, potentially leading to compromise of the server. This vulnerability affects Control-M/Server versions 9.0.20.x to 9.0.21.200 (included) and potentially earlier unsupported versions.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-10539 is an authentication bypass vulnerability in BMC Control-M/Server caused by insufficient input filtering in a communication command. This flaw may permit an unauthenticated attacker to execute unauthorized commands on the affected server, potentially compromising it. The vulnerability affects Control-M/Server versions 9.0.20.x to 9.0.21.200 inclusive and possibly earlier unsupported versions. No official patch or remediation guidance is currently available from the vendor, and no known exploits have been reported in the wild.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows an unauthenticated attacker to bypass authentication controls and execute unauthorized commands on the Control-M/Server, potentially leading to full server compromise. The CVSS 4.0 base score of 9.5 reflects the critical nature of this vulnerability with high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, restrict network access to the Control-M/Server to trusted users only and monitor for suspicious activity related to command execution. Avoid exposing the affected versions to untrusted networks.
