DescriptionCVE.org

ccoap 77f55c4b466e99327c24ace8a2913d3ba7e2ccd5 contains a vulnerability in the option parsing logic that causes a segmentation fault when processing malformed COAP messages with insufficient option data.

AnalysisAI

Denial-of-service via segmentation fault in ccoap's option parsing logic allows unauthenticated remote attackers to crash any service built on the library by sending a single malformed CoAP message. The vulnerability exists at commit 77f55c4b466e99327c24ace8a2913d3ba7e2ccd5 of the ipflavors/ccoap C library, where the option parser does not adequately validate that sufficient data is present before accessing option fields, triggering an out-of-bounds write (CWE-787). …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires that the target host runs a CoAP service built with ccoap at or prior to commit 77f55c4b466e99327c24ace8a2913d3ba7e2ccd5, with the CoAP UDP port reachable from the attacker's network position. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 score of 7.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H) accurately reflects the network-reachable, zero-authentication, low-complexity nature of triggering a DoS. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, audit systems to identify all dependencies on ccoap, review deployed versions against commit 77f55c4b466e99327c24ace8a2913d3ba7e2ccd5, and assess which CoAP endpoints are exposed to untrusted networks. …
