CVE-2026-111434
Use of Externally-Controlled format string vulnerability in openEuler iSulad on Linux. This vulnerability is associated with program file src/daemon/modules/image/oci/oci_load.c. This issue affects iSulad: through 2.1.6. When the iSulad daemon performs container lifecycle operations (such as create, start, exec, stop, etc.) through the isula runtime (shim), the daemon reads the stderr output of the shim process via a pipe for error information display. If the buffer contains format specifiers such as %s, %x, or %n, it may trigger a format string vulnerability, potentially leading to information leakage, denial of service, or the risk of arbitrary writes.

NVD has not supplied machine-readable vulnerable CPE product/version entries for this CVE. This is an information gap, not proof that no products are affected. Check the vendor advisory references below.
Remediation & validation
- Identify exposure by comparing the affected product and version ranges with your asset inventory, SBOM and externally exposed services.
- Review the linked vendor security advisory or patch notes. Upgrade to a vendor-confirmed fixed release; do not infer a fixed version from the CVE description.
- Until patched, consider restricting network access or disabling the affected feature where operationally safe. These are temporary controls, not a substitute for a vendor fix.
- Validate the remediation with a version check and vulnerability rescan, then retain change evidence.
No fixed version is displayed unless it is explicitly established by a vendor advisory. Follow the vendor's release notes for exact product and branch applicability.
