MITRE ATT&CK
1 technique across 1 tactic: Collection The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Impact | Out-of-bounds reads can leak sensitive information from memory, while out-of-bounds writes can corrupt data or enable code execution. With a CVSS score of 6.5 (MEDIUM), this represents a moderate risk. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker provides a crafted input that causes the application to read or write beyond buffer boundaries, potentially leaking memory contents or hijacking control flow. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Mar 15, 2026
A memory disclosure vulnerability exists in libcoap's OSCORE configuration parser in libcoap before release-4.3.5-patches. An out-of-bounds read may occur when parsing certain configuration values, allowing an attacker to infer or read memory beyond string boundaries in the .rodata section. This could potentially lead to information disclosure or denial of service.

Attack Technique
A buffer overflow occurs when a program writes more data to a memory buffer than it was allocated to hold, causing the excess data to spill into adjacent memory regions.
Information disclosure occurs when an application unintentionally exposes sensitive data that aids attackers in reconnaissance or directly compromises security.
Denial of Service attacks render applications or systems unavailable by overwhelming resources or triggering failure conditions.
