CVE-2025-56364: n/a
A use of uninitialized value vulnerability exists in the Matter SDK (connectedhomeip) before 1.4.0, where the `GetDestinationGroupId().Value()` method is called without first checking whether a value exists. This leads to a crash when an InvokeCommand is sent without initializing the destination group ID. The issue affects all versions before commit 0360cc3 (Dec 5, 2024) and leads to denial of service through SIGABRT. It is fixed by adding a .HasValue() check before access.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability arises from calling GetDestinationGroupId().Value() without first checking if the destination group ID has a value, leading to a use of uninitialized value. When an InvokeCommand is sent without initializing this ID, the software crashes with SIGABRT, resulting in denial of service. The flaw affects all versions of the Matter SDK before commit 0360cc3 (Dec 5, 2024), which corresponds to versions before 1.4.0. The fix involves adding a .HasValue() check before accessing the value to prevent the crash.
Potential Impact
The vulnerability causes a denial of service condition by crashing the Matter SDK when processing certain InvokeCommand requests that lack an initialized destination group ID. There is no indication of code execution or data leakage. No known exploits are reported in the wild.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. The issue is fixed in commit 0360cc3 dated December 5, 2024, which corresponds to version 1.4.0. Users should upgrade to version 1.4.0 or later once available to remediate this vulnerability.
