Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
A weakness has been identified in RT-Thread up to 5.0.2. This affects the function sys_getaddrinfo of the file components/lwp/lwp_syscall.c. Executing a manipulation of the argument ai_addr can lead to memory corruption. The attack can only be executed locally. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks. The pull request to fix this issue awaits acceptance.
AnalysisAI
Memory corruption in RT-Thread's Linux-compatible process (lwp) syscall layer allows a local low-privileged user to crash the RTOS kernel by supplying a crafted ai_addr argument to the sys_getaddrinfo handler in components/lwp/lwp_syscall.c. All RT-Thread versions through 5.0.2 are affected, with impact limited to availability (VA:H) - no confidentiality or integrity loss is indicated. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the target device to be running RT-Thread version 5.0.2 or earlier with the lwp (Linux-compatible process) subsystem compiled and active - this is not enabled in all RT-Thread configurations and represents a specific build-time choice. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N) with E:P supplemental metric accurately characterizes the threat: local-only access, low complexity, low privilege, no interaction, and exclusively availability impact. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | A low-privileged application or user process running on an RT-Thread 5.0.2 device with lwp enabled calls `getaddrinfo()` with a specially crafted `ai_addr` pointer argument, which the kernel-side `sys_getaddrinfo` handler writes to without adequate bounds validation. The resulting out-of-bounds memory corruption in kernel space causes the RT-Thread kernel to crash, taking down all processes and services on the device. … |
| Remediation | No officially released patched version is available at time of analysis. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
