7DescriptionGitHub Advisory
NanoMQ MQTT Broker (NanoMQ) is an all-around Edge Messaging Platform. Versions prior to 0.24.11 have a remotely triggerable heap buffer overflow in the uri_param_parse function of NanoMQ's REST API. The vulnerability occurs due to an off-by-one error when allocating memory for query parameter keys and values, allowing an attacker to write a null byte beyond the allocated buffer. This can be triggered via a crafted HTTP request. Version 0.24.11 patches the issue.
AnalysisAI
Heap buffer overflow in NanoMQ MQTT Broker's REST API allows remote unauthenticated attackers to trigger denial of service via crafted HTTP requests. The off-by-one error in uri_param_parse function (CWE-122) affects all versions prior to 0.24.11. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the NanoMQ REST API feature to be enabled and network-accessible to the attacker. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | Real-world risk is moderate-high for internet-exposed NanoMQ deployments despite the 7.7 CVSS score. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker identifies an internet-exposed NanoMQ broker instance through port scanning or IoT device reconnaissance (common on ports 8081/18083 for REST API). They craft an HTTP GET or POST request to any REST API endpoint with maliciously formatted query parameters containing precise byte sequences to trigger the off-by-one overflow in uri_param_parse. … |
| Remediation | Upgrade NanoMQ MQTT Broker to version 0.24.11 or later, which contains the vendor-released patch addressing the off-by-one heap overflow (commit 69a97b3b39cc218f044f1c8896f4d3d8757bb394 available at https://github.com/nanomq/nanomq/commit/69a97b3b39cc218f044f1c8896f4d3d8757bb394). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
