Users should upgrade affected versions of the BACnet Stack to 1.4.6, 1.5.1, 1.6.1, or later versions such as 1.7.0 where the vulnerability is fixed. Applying these official patches fully mitigates the issue. No additional mitigation steps are indicated by the vendor advisory.

Description

A high-severity out-of-bounds write vulnerability (CWE-787) exists in the BACnet Stack open source protocol library for embedded systems. Versions 1.4.0 up to but not including 1.4.6, 1.5.0 up to but not including 1.5.1, and 1.6.0 up to but not including 1.6.1 are affected. The issue occurs in the BACnet MS/TP receive path when decoding COBS frames, where the decode function can write past the end of the buffer due to incorrect capacity handling. This flaw has been fixed in versions 1.4.6, 1.5.1, 1.6.1, and 1.7.0.
