CVE detail
CVE-2026-6682
In FatFS R0.16 and earlier contains a FAT32 integer overflow bug in mount_volume() where fasize *= fs->n_fats can wrap, leading to attacker-controlled file-size metadata and unsafe read lengths in downstream callers. This maps to CWE-190 (Integer Overflow or Wraparound). Estimated CVSS v3.1 vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:P/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H (7.6, High). Remote delivery is also possible in OTA/update pipelines. The estimated CISA SSVC vectors are Exploitation: PoC, Technical Impact: Total.

- Seven Bugs in FatFs Put IoT and Embedded Devices at RiskSecurity Affairs
runZero found 7 flaws in FatFs, a filesystem used in IoT and embedded devices. Bugs can cause memory corruption, crashes, or data leaks via crafted storage. Cybersecurity firm runZero has disclosed seven vulnerabilities in FatFs, a compact open-source library that lets embedded devices read and write FAT and exFAT formatted storage, the same formats used […]
newssecurityaffairs.comJul 6, 2026, 10:20 AM d, and FatFs mishandles the bad data. runZero rated the set CVSS Medium to High, with no Criticals. The headline bug is CVE-2026-6682 (CVSS 7.6), an integer overflow in the code that mounts a FAT32 volume. Bad math can produce a false file size, which later code treats as a real read length. On real hardware, that can become memory corruption and code
