Hi all,

Both security issues below have been assigned CVE IDs CVE-2026-63339 and 
CVE-2026-63338, respectively.

The reporter who responsibly disclosed these issues plans to publish 
more details (including the PoC and the root cause) on the oss-security 
mailing list.

We have agreed that they will wait until August 11th, 2026, 12:00 UTC 
before publishing.

If you have not already upgraded your IXP Manager installation to 
v7.3.1, you should do so within the next week.

  - Barry
