Description

Fast DDS is a C++ implementation of the DDS (Data Distribution Service) standard of the OMG (Object Management Group

). Prior to versions 3.4.1, 3.3.1, and 2.6.11, when the security mode is enabled, modifying the DATA Submessage within an

SPDP packet sent by a publisher causes a heap buffer overflow, resulting in remote termination of Fast-DDS. If the fields

of PID_IDENTITY_TOKEN or PID_PERMISSIONS_TOKEN in the DATA Submessage are tampered with — specially readOctetVector

reads an unchecked vecsize that is propagated unchanged into readData as the length parameter — the attacker-contro

lled vecsize can trigger a 32-bit integer overflow during the length calculation. That overflow can cause large alloca

tion attempt that quickly leads to OOM, enabling a remotely-triggerable denial-of-service and remote process termination.

Versions 3.4.1, 3.3.1, and 2.6.11 patch the issue.

How this vulnerability can be exploited

This issue can be reached over the network, attack complexity is low, an attacker needs no privileges on the target. No user interaction is required. The scope is unchanged, so the impact stays within the vulnerable component. Rated impact: confidentiality none, integrity none, availability high.

CVSS metrics in full

The score comes from this vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H

  • Attack vector: Network — reachable from anywhere that can route to the service.
  • Attack complexity: Low — the attack works reliably, with no preparation.
  • Privileges required: None — an unauthenticated stranger can try it.
  • User interaction: None — nobody has to be tricked into anything.
  • Scope: Unchanged — the damage stays inside the vulnerable component.
  • Confidentiality impact: None.
  • Integrity impact: None.
  • Availability impact: High — total loss, or loss the attacker controls.
