CVE intelligence and bounded remediation
CVE-2026-0689 — Extremenetworks Extremecloud Iq Site Engine security vulnerability
In ExtremeCloud IQ – Site Engine (XIQ‑SE) before 26.2.10, a vulnerability in the NAC administration interface allows an authenticated NAC administrator to retrieve masked sensitive parameters from HTTP responses. Although credentials appear redacted in the user interface, the application returns the underlying credential values in the HTTP response, enabling an authorized administrator to recover stored secrets that may exceed their intended access. We would like to thank the Lockheed Martin Red Team for responsibly reporting this issue and working with us through coordinated disclosure.

Matched remediation archetype
Information disclosure and sensitive data exposure
This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.
Check exposure
- Trace sensitive data through responses, errors, logs, metrics, traces, caches, exports, files, backups, and client bundles.
- Identify affected subjects, tenants, retention windows, access controls, and downstream copies without opening unnecessary sensitive records.
- Review metadata, timing, status, length, and existence signals as well as direct content disclosure.
Remediate safely
- Minimize collection and output, apply field-level authorization and redaction at a centralized boundary, and return generic external errors.
- Remove secrets and sensitive data from logs, artifacts, URLs, caches, and client-side bundles; rotate credentials that may have been exposed.
- Update the affected component and add synthetic-data tests for response, error, observability, and export paths.
