DescriptionCVE.org

In Bouncy Castle for Java before 1.85, OER parser recurses without depth limit on self-referential IEEE 1609.2 schema. This issue also affects Bouncy Castle for Java LTS before 2.73.12, and Bouncy Castle for Java FIPS (BC-FJA) before bcutil-fips 2.0.7 (2.0.X series) and 2.1.7 (2.1.X series).

AnalysisAI

Unbounded recursion in Bouncy Castle's OER (Octet Encoding Rules) parser enables remote unauthenticated denial-of-service against any Java application processing IEEE 1609.2 V2X messages. Because the IEEE 1609.2 schema is cyclic - an Ieee1609Dot2Data structure can nest inside its own SignedData payload - a few kilobytes of crafted input drive the parser into unbounded recursive descent, terminating in a JVM StackOverflowError. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires that the target application uses Bouncy Castle's OERInputStream to parse IEEE 1609.2 or ETSI TS 103 097 V2X message structures from attacker-controlled input, and that this parsing occurs before signature verification - which is the standard operational flow in the affected library. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.7 (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VA:H) accurately characterises the threat: network-reachable, unauthenticated, low complexity, high availability impact, no confidentiality or integrity effect. … 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 Upgrade to Bouncy Castle for Java 1.85 or later, Bouncy Castle LTS 2.73.12 or later, or bcutil-fips 2.0.7 (2.0.x series) or 2.1.7 (2.1.x series). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
