CVE-2026-39456 is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog. No public exploit code is tracked. It is rated CVSS 5.6 (medium) and affects Media Transcode Accelerator; no fixed version is listed yet.

## Summary

Software affected: Media Transcode Accelerator, in its versions before the fixed build (version numbers omitted here). An attacker with local access and high-privilege login can trigger a denial of service, disrupting availability of the affected system without gaining access to its data, and no user interaction is needed.

Model-written summary (anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5). Verify details against the original sources.

## Affected

- n/a Media Transcode Accelerator: before version 1.0.0-00128

## Description

Improper input validation for some Media Transcode Accelerator before version 1.0.0-00128 within Ring 3: User Applications may allow a denial of service. System software adversary with a privileged user combined with a high complexity attack may enable denial of service. This result may potentially occur via local access when attack requirements are not present without special internal knowledge and requires no user interaction. The potential vulnerability may impact the confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (high) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.

## What to do

## Check your systems with an agent

```text
Check whether my systems are affected by CVE-2026-39456 (Improper input validation for some Media Transcode Accelerator before version 1.0.0-00128 within Ring 3: User Applications may allow a…), using the cve.now data below.

Rules: work read-only. Do not run exploit code, proof-of-concept scripts or scanners that send attack payloads, and do not change any configuration, package, image or deployment. Report findings only.

What cve.now has for CVE-2026-39456 (entry last updated 2026-11-10):
Affected:
- n/a Media Transcode Accelerator: versions before version 1.0.0-00128
Fixed versions: none listed yet.
Setup: unknown whether the bug needs a non-default feature or setting. Check the advisory.
CISA KEV: CVE-2026-39456 is not listed as of cve.now's last read.
This KEV status is for CVE-2026-39456 only. If you also check another CVE, look up its own KEV status; never assume it from this one.

How to check:
- Installed software: check what is actually running, not what a repo declares. Read the version from each host, container image and Kubernetes node (the binary's version output, the OS package database, image layers), and check whether the conditions above hold there. Distribution packages may carry a backported fix under an older version number; confirm against the distribution's own advisory.

Verify against the linked advisories before concluding, and cite the date you read each one:
- https://intel.com/content/www/us/en/security-center/advisory/intel-sa-01510.html
Do not conclude an asset is unaffected unless you checked it and the evidence covers both its version and the conditions above. If you could not check something, mark it unknown and say what is missing.

Report a table with one row per asset and these columns: Asset | Version or build | Status (affected, fixed, not applicable, unknown) | Compensating controls | Exposure (internet-facing, internal, none) | Evidence | Next action.
