bacnet_stack 1.3.1 contains an Out-of-bounds Read in bacnet_tag_number_decode which allows attackers to cause a denial of service.
AnalysisAI
Denial of service in BACnet Stack 1.3.1 occurs through an out-of-bounds read in the bacnet_tag_number_decode function, allowing remote attackers to crash affected building automation systems by sending crafted BACnet protocol messages. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS scores the exploitation probability at a very low 0.02%, though the network-reachable nature of BACnet deployments in critical infrastructure warrants attention.
Technical ContextAI
BACnet Stack is an open-source implementation of the Building Automation and Control Networks (BACnet) protocol (ASHRAE/ANSI 135, ISO 16484-5), widely deployed in HVAC, lighting, access control, and other building management systems. The vulnerability sits in bacnet_tag_number_decode, a parsing routine responsible for decoding the application-layer tag numbers that prefix every BACnet APDU data element. CWE-125 (Out-of-bounds Read) indicates the function reads memory past the boundary of an input buffer - typically due to missing length checks when a malformed or truncated tag header is processed - which can dereference unmapped memory and crash the process handling BACnet/IP (UDP/47808) or BACnet/MSTP traffic.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis; the only references are the upstream repository and tracking issue https://github.com/bacnet-stack/bacnet-stack/issues/1270, so operators should monitor that issue for a fixed release and pull the upstream commit once merged. As compensating controls, restrict BACnet/IP (UDP/47808) and BACnet/MSTP traffic to trusted management VLANs and block it at the perimeter - BACnet should never be Internet-exposed; place a BACnet-aware firewall or BBMD that drops malformed APDUs in front of vulnerable devices, accepting that legitimate cross-subnet BACnet discovery may need explicit allowlisting. Where a device crash would disrupt life-safety or HVAC operations, plan for watchdog-driven auto-restart or process supervision so a single malformed packet does not produce sustained outage, and rate-limit unsolicited BACnet messages at the network edge.
