CVE-2026-14685: State Issue in HdrHistogram
CVE-2026-14685 is a medium severity vulnerability in HdrHistogram versions 2.2.0, 2.2.1, and 2.2.2. It involves a state issue in the recordValueWithCount function of the AbstractHistogram component. The vulnerability arises from manipulation of the count argument and requires local access to exploit. No official fix or patch has been announced yet.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability affects the recordValueWithCount function in the AbstractHistogram.java file of HdrHistogram up to version 2.2.2. Manipulating the count argument leads to a state issue within the component. Exploitation requires local environment access, and no user interaction is needed. The issue was reported early to the project, but no response or remediation has been provided. The CVSS 4.8 score reflects a medium impact with low attack complexity and local attack vector.
Potential Impact
The vulnerability can cause a state issue in the AbstractHistogram component when the count argument is manipulated. This may affect the integrity or correctness of histogram data processing. Exploitation is limited to local attackers with low privileges. There is no indication of remote exploitation or elevation of privileges. No known exploits are currently in the wild.
Mitigation Recommendations
No official fix or patch is currently available for this vulnerability. Since exploitation requires local access, restricting local user permissions and access may reduce risk. Monitor the vendor's advisory channels for updates and patches. Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance.
