CVE-2026-20007 describes a deep packet inspection bypass vulnerability in Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense (FTD) Software, specifically affecting Snort 2 and Snort 3 engines. A logic error in the Snort rule integration allows unauthenticated, remote attackers to bypass configured Snort rules, permitting traffic that should have been dropped. With a CVSS score of 5.8 (Medium), this vulnerability has a low attack complexity and could lead to unauthorized traffic entering the network, though it does not impact confidentiality or availability. There is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or inclusion in the CISA KEV catalog, and community discussion is minimal.
