No public exploits or patches are currently documented.

CVE-2026-113694 is an improper authorization vulnerability in the SmartIT user attachment feature of BMC IT Service Management Suite versions 25.3.01, 25.4.01, and 26.1.01. It allows authenticated users with limited privileges to access or modify attachment resources belonging to other users without proper authorization. The vulnerability has a medium severity with a CVSS 4.0 base score of 5.3.

Exposure of sensitive information in the SmartIT system-account settings of BMC IT Service Management Suite versions 25.3.01, 25.4.01, and 26.1.01 allows authenticated users to retrieve a system username and encrypted password value.

Path traversal in the SmartIT file-management feature of BMC IT Service Management Suite versions 25.3.01, 25.4.01, and 26.1.01 allows authenticated administrators to read files outside the intended directory.

Stored cross-site scripting in the SmartIT knowledge-article feature of BMC IT Service Management Suite versions 25.3.01, 25.4.01, and 26.1.01 allows authenticated users to execute stored scripts in other users' browsers.

Stored cross-site scripting in the SmartIT attachment feature of BMC IT Service Management Suite versions 25.3.01, 25.4.01, and 26.1.01 allows authenticated users to execute uploaded script content in other users' browsers.

Stored cross-site scripting in the SmartIT work-notes feature of BMC IT Service Management Suite versions 25.3.01, 25.4.01, and 26.1.01 allows authenticated users to execute stored scripts in other users' browsers.

Server-side request forgery in the SmartIT URL-based attachment feature of BMC IT Service Management Suite versions 25.3.01, 25.4.01, and 26.1.01 allows authenticated users to make server-side requests to internal services and observe response information.

CVE-2026-10537 is an authentication bypass vulnerability in BMC Control-M/Enterprise Manager and Control-M/Server. It arises from a misconfiguration that may allow unauthenticated remote users to access certain service functionalities. This could lead to information exposure or impact service availability. The vulnerability affects versions 9.0.20 up to but not including 9.0.22, and potentially earlier unsupported versions. The CVSS 4.0 base score is 6.9, indicating a medium severity level.

BMC Helix Network Management on-premises versions 26.3.00 prior to 26.3.01 contain a critical authentication bypass vulnerability. When SAML single sign-on is configured, unauthenticated attackers can log in as the local administrator using any password. This allows attackers to gain SuperAdmin privileges, enabling them to modify device credentials, execute device commands, and alter audit records.

OpenBMC's IPMI implementation, phosphor-net-ipmid, contains a logic flaw in which an unauthenticated client can force the RAKP Message 1 handler to return before it overwrites the authentication object's constructor defaults. The IPMI service then accepts a RAKP Message 3 whose HMAC is computed with the constant 20-byte 'userKey' initialized from the string '0penBmc' and an often-predictable 'bmcRandomNum'. Several downstream vendors implement phosphor-net-ipmid as their IPMI stack, such as NVIDIA and H3C.

OpenBMC's IPMI implementation, phosphor-net-ipmid, is vulnerable to a logic flaw where the authorization context of an existing session can be replaced with a target account while still maintaining the original integrity and encryption keys. Several downstream vendors implement phosphor-net-ipmid as their IPMI stack, such as NVIDIA and H3C. This issue effectively allows for privilege escalation without re-authentication.

Messaging consumer functionality allows deserialization of user-controlled data without sufficient restriction of allowed object types in the out of support Control-M/Server and Control-M/Enterprise Manager versions 9.0.20.x and potentially earlier. This issue may allow an authenticated attacker to trigger unintended server-side behavior through crafted serialized content.

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.

The Control-M/Enterprise Manager uses weak protections for stored hashes of account passwords, potentially allowing offline password recovery attacks if credential data is obtained by an attacker. This vulnerability affects Control-M/Enterprise Manager unsupported versions 9.0.20.x and potentially earlier unsupported versions

BMC FootPrints ITSM versions 20.20.02 through 20.24.01.001 contain a deserialization of untrusted data vulnerability in the ASP.NET servlet's VIEWSTATE handling that allows authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code. Attackers can supply crafted serialized objects to the VIEWSTATE parameter to achieve remote code execution and fully compromise the application. The following hotfixes remediate the vulnerability: 20.20.02, 20.20.03.002, 20.21.01.001, 20.21.02.002, 20.22.01, 20.22.01.001, 20.23.01, 20.23.01.002, and 20.24.01.

BMC FootPrints ITSM versions 20.20.02 through 20.24.01.001 contain a blind server-side request forgery vulnerability in the externalfeed/RSS API component that allows authenticated attackers to trigger arbitrary outbound requests from the server. Attackers can exploit insufficient validation of externally supplied resource references to interact with internal services or cause resource exhaustion impacting availability. The following hotfixes remediate the vulnerability: 20.20.02, 20.20.03.002, 20.21.01.001, 20.21.02.002, 20.22.01, 20.22.01.001, 20.23.01, 20.23.01.002, and 20.24.01.

BMC FootPrints ITSM versions 20.20.02 through 20.24.01.001 contain a blind server-side request forgery vulnerability in the searchWeb API component that allows authenticated attackers to cause the server to initiate arbitrary outbound requests. Attackers can exploit improper URL validation to perform internal network scanning or interact with internal services, impacting system availability. The following hotfixes remediate the vulnerability: 20.20.02, 20.20.03.002, 20.21.01.001, 20.21.02.002, 20.22.01, 20.22.01.001, 20.23.01, 20.23.01.002, and 20.24.01.
