This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.5, rated HIGH. It can be exploited remotely over the network. No authentication or special privileges are required for exploitation.

Technical Description

COVESA Open1722 through 0.9.2 contains a stack buffer overflow vulnerability that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to write past the end of a fixed 15-slot stack array by sending a crafted UDP datagram containing more than 15 ACF-CAN messages. The avtp_to_can() function increments its write index without bounding it against the caller-supplied array size, and because the listener accepts datagrams from any sender matching a hardcoded unauthenticated stream ID transmitted in plaintext, attackers can corrupt adjacent stack memory to achieve arbitrary code execution or denial of service.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
