CVE-2026-91041 PUBLISHED

FileX fault-tolerant log replay writes past the destination sector when mounting a crafted FAT image

Assigner: eclipse
Reserved: 23.09.2026 Published: 20.10.2026 Updated: 20.10.2026

Mounting an attacker-controlled FAT image with fault tolerance enabled causes an out-of-bounds heap write during log replay. The write is attacker-positioned and attacker-valued, and on a common embedded memory layout it reaches the FX_MEDIA driver callback, giving control of the instruction pointer.
