CVE-2026-49318: Indian Scout Bobber 2025 Infotainment Digital Round skips PIN entry when WCM is silent at boot
Incorrect behavior order in the Infotainment / Digital Round display of the Indian Motorcycle Scout Bobber + Tech 2025 model year allows an adjacent-network attacker to bypass the PIN entry screen. The Infotainment uses presence of Wireless Control Module (WCM) traffic during its boot window as a proxy for whether an immobilizer is fitted; if no WCM messages are observed, it skips the PIN entry screen and shows the normal user interface. An attacker who silences the WCM during the boot window — for example via a separately tracked CAN bus-off technique — can present a fully unlocked Infotainment despite the PIN never being entered. Specific timing and protocol details have been withheld pending vendor remediation.
Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
On the 2025 Indian Motorcycle Scout Bobber + Tech, the Infotainment Digital Round display can skip the PIN screen if Wireless Control Module traffic is absent during boot. This may show the normal interface without PIN entry. The CVE rates this low severity because the stated impact is limited confidentiality exposure and requires close/physical or adjacent access.
Executive priority
Treat as low urgency but worth tracking for affected fleets. Business impact is likely privacy or user-interface exposure, not confirmed vehicle control. Prioritize vendor confirmation during normal maintenance unless affected motorcycles handle sensitive rider data or face elevated tampering risk.
Technical view
The display uses WCM traffic during a boot window as a proxy for immobilizer presence. If no WCM messages are observed, it skips PIN entry. The record cites incorrect behavior order and handling issues. Timing and protocol details are withheld pending vendor remediation. CVSS is 2.4: AV:P/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N.
Likely exposure
Exposure appears limited to Indian Motorcycle Scout Bobber + Tech 2025 models with the Infotainment Digital Round display. The source does not identify other model years, other Indian Motorcycle products, or a specific firmware range.
Exploitation context
The CVE describes an adjacent-network attacker who can silence WCM traffic during boot, including through a separately tracked CAN bus-off technique. It does not report public exploit availability or active exploitation. KEV status is false in the provided bundle.
Researcher notes
The record withholds timing and protocol details. Avoid assuming broader CAN compromise from this CVE alone. The weakness is the boot-time decision order: absence of WCM traffic leads to skipping PIN. Evidence is limited to the CVE description and CWE reference.
Mitigation direction
Check Indian Motorcycle or dealer guidance for firmware updates or service actions.
Do not rely on the display PIN as the only protection for sensitive information.
Limit unsupervised physical access to affected motorcycles until vendor guidance is available.
Track the separately referenced CAN bus-off issue if disclosed by the vendor.
Validation and detection
Inventory 2025 Scout Bobber + Tech motorcycles with Digital Round displays.
Confirm current infotainment firmware and ask the vendor or dealer about affected builds.
Review whether the display exposes personal data when unlocked.
Monitor CVE and vendor channels for remediation details.
