CVE-2025-1978Network attack vector

Unauthenticated remote code execution

Published May 7, 2026 · Updated May 7, 2026

Code injection in Hitachi Storage Navigator and maintenance consoles allows remote attackers to execute code over the network. Hitachi identifies CWE-94 but has not disclosed the affected request, code path, or operation that mishandles attacker-controlled input. No authentication or user interaction is required, and the executed code can read or modify data and interrupt management operations.
