Buffer overread via Secure NCP integer underflow
Published Feb 20, 2026 · Updated Feb 20, 2026
Integer underflow in Silicon Labs Simplicity SDK allows physically proximate attackers to overread a Secure NCP host buffer. Silicon Labs has not disclosed the affected function or the exact arithmetic operation that underflows while the Secure NCP host processes the packet. Physical access to the NCP-host interface is required in releases through 2025.6.2 and 2025.12.0 through 2025.12.1; neither remote reachability nor code execution is reported.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
