CVE-2026-19507Network attack vector

Denial of service via unbounded password hashing

Published Aug 19, 2026 · Updated Aug 19, 2026

Uncontrolled resource consumption in RDK Management LLC RDK-B WebUI allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via oversized passwords. The login handler in /usr/www2/check.jst hashes the entire supplied password with SHA-256 before rejecting the attempt and imposes no length limit on that untrusted input. Any network-reachable WebUI login endpoint is exposed to remote unauthenticated attackers, and repeated large requests can make the interface and related services slow or unresponsive.
