CVE-2026-27565 is a critical OS command injection vulnerability in IODD file processing in affected IO-Link industrial master devices from Pepperl+Fuchs, Phoenix Contact, and Carlo Gavazzi running firmware earlier than 1.7.4. An unauthenticated remote attacker can submit a malicious IODD file that causes embedded shell commands to execute with root privileges. Exploitation can also write a root-privileged shell script to persistent storage, allowing it to remain active after a reboot.
