arcadedb: Comparison Using Wrong Factors
CVE-2026-75840 is a high-severity comparison using wrong factors vulnerability in arcadedb from ArcadeData, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.5 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. The record lists version 26.8.1 as the first without the flaw, so updating arcadedb to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.43% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.
High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.
