Network-AI: Interpretation Conflict

CVE-2026-73615 is a high-severity interpretation conflict vulnerability in Network-AI from Jovancoding, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.8 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an attacker with a low-privileged account, without any action from a user. The record lists version 5.15.1 as the first without the flaw, so updating Network-AI to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.65% chance of exploitation within 30 days, higher than 52% of scored CVEs.

Official description

Network-AI versions before 5.15.1 contain a security matcher bypass vulnerability where SandboxPolicy evaluates raw command strings with quotes preserved while the executor tokenizes commands by stripping quotes before execution. Attackers can craft quoted commands that evade blocklist checks and approval gates while the executor runs the identical unquoted dangerous argv.

The underlying weakness: Interpretation Conflict

Product A handles inputs or steps differently than Product B, which causes A to perform incorrect actions based on its perception of B's state.
