Hidden commands bypass safety controls

The advisory states that successful exploitation of the vulnerability CVE-2026-18844 could allow an attacker to disable electrical safety mechanisms or modify stimulation output settings. The flaw affects the device’s command interface and does not require the advisory to state whether it has been exploited in the wild; CISA does not claim exploitation has occurred.
