CVE-2026-28775 — Datacast Sfx2100 Firmware security vulnerability

Critical CVSS 10

An unauthenticated Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability exists in the SNMP service of International Datacasting Corporation (IDC) SFX Series SuperFlex SatelliteReceiver. The deployment insecurely provisions the `private` SNMP community string with read/write access by default. Because the SNMP agent runs as root, an unauthenticated remote attacker can utilize `NET-SNMP-EXTEND-MIB` directives, abusing the fact that the system runs a vulnerable version of net-snmp pre 5.8, to execute arbitrary operating system commands with root privileges.

Matched remediation archetype

Command, code, expression, and template injection

This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.

Check exposure

  • Trace untrusted values to process execution, interpreters, evaluators, template engines, dynamic imports, and administrative scripting features.
  • Determine whether the affected path is reachable across each trust boundary and which service account or host privilege it inherits.
  • Review configuration for optional execution features, unsafe compatibility modes, and shell invocation.

Remediate safely

  • Replace string-built commands or evaluated code with fixed operations and structured argument APIs that do not invoke a shell.
  • Use strict allowlists for operation identifiers and reject unexpected input before it reaches any interpreter.
  • Update the affected component and add inert regression tests covering metacharacters, encoding variants, and alternate request paths.
