CVE-2026-49325: CWE-1384 Improper Handling of Physical or Environmental Conditions in Indian Motorcycle (Polaris Inc.) Scout Bobber + Tech
Improper handling of physical conditions in the bike-shutdown control of the Indian Motorcycle Scout Bobber + Tech 2025 model year allows a physical attacker with access to the Wireless Control Module (WCM) wiring harness to bypass the anti-theft shutdown. The WCM signals shutdown to a peer ECU via a falling-edge voltage transition on a dedicated wire pair. The receiving ECU does not distinguish between an active shutdown pulse and an open-circuit / disconnected condition; interrupting the relevant wires leaves the motorcycle fully operable even though the WCM never validated the rider's PIN. Specific connector details have been withheld pending vendor remediation.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability arises from the improper handling of physical or environmental conditions (CWE-1384) in the shutdown control of the Indian Motorcycle Scout Bobber + Tech 2025 model. The WCM sends a shutdown signal via a falling-edge voltage transition on a dedicated wire pair to a peer ECU. However, the ECU does not distinguish between an active shutdown pulse and an open-circuit condition. By physically interrupting the wiring harness, an attacker can bypass the anti-theft shutdown mechanism, leaving the motorcycle operable without PIN validation. Specific connector details are withheld pending vendor remediation. The CVSS v3.1 base score is 4.6 (medium severity), reflecting a physical attack vector with low complexity and no required privileges or user interaction, causing availability impact.
Potential Impact
The impact is that an attacker with physical access to the WCM wiring harness can bypass the anti-theft shutdown feature, allowing unauthorized operation of the motorcycle without PIN validation. This compromises the availability control intended to prevent theft. There is no confidentiality or integrity impact reported. No known exploits are currently in the wild.
Mitigation Recommendations
No official patch or remediation has been announced by the vendor at this time. Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, physical access to the WCM wiring harness should be restricted to trusted personnel only. Monitor vendor communications for updates on official fixes or mitigations.
