CVE-2026-95111 · Severity: info · Published 2026-10-20

Eclipse ThreadX is an embedded real-time operating system kernel used in IoT and embedded devices. A memory protection flaw in the Module Manager's queue handling allows a protected module to read up to 96 bytes beyond the boundaries of its allocated memory, potentially exposing sensitive data from adjacent memory regions such as other modules' data or kernel control blocks.

## Quick answers

**Is CVE-2026-95111 exploited in the wild?** No. Junglewise Threat Intelligence has no report of CVE-2026-95111 being exploited in the wild.

**How severe is CVE-2026-95111?** Informational severity, published 20 October 2026.

**Which products and versions are affected?** Eclipse ThreadX 6.0.1 through 6.5.1.202602a.

**Is there a fix for CVE-2026-95111?** Yes: fixed in 6.5.2.202603. Until then: Disable queue front-send by defining TXM_QUEUE_FRONT_SEND_CALL_NOT_USED, or deploy modules without memory protection enabled (though this removes protection entirely and is not recommended as a mitigation strategy). Junglewise finds every place you run it, drafts the upgrade and applies it once you approve.

**How is CVE-2026-95111 attacked?** It is attacked with local access, in a software library.

**Am I affected by CVE-2026-95111?** Check whether you run Eclipse ThreadX at an affected version. Junglewise does that check for you around the clock: connect your code, cloud and domains, and it matches new vulnerabilities like this one against what you actually run and tells you when one reaches you.

## How to fix

- Fixed in 6.5.2.202603

Disable queue front-send by defining TXM_QUEUE_FRONT_SEND_CALL_NOT_USED, or deploy modules without memory protection enabled (though this removes protection entirely and is not recommended as a mitigation strategy).

## Technical details

The front-send dispatcher in the Module Manager passes a queue message size as a word count to the buffer range check, which expects a byte count. This causes the range check to accept buffers 4 times smaller than intended (on all module ports where sizeof(ULONG) = 4). When _txe_queue_front_send executes in privileged mode, it reads 4× the intended byte range from the source buffer and writes the overflow into the queue's message area, where a receiving module can read the over-disclosed data. The vulnerability requires memory protection to be enabled and affects ThreadX versions 6.0.1 through 6.5.1.

## Affected products

- Eclipse ThreadX 6.0.1 through 6.5.1.202602a
