UART is a physical serial interface requiring hardware proximity, making AV:P correct; the NVD-assigned AV:N directly contradicts the description's physical-proximity requirement.

DescriptionCVE.org

An integer handling flaw in the cobs_decode function of SpaceDot AcubeSAT OBC software commit eaf90ec allows physically-proximate attackers with UART access to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted input.

AnalysisAI

Denial of service in SpaceDot AcubeSAT On-Board Computer (OBC) software at commit eaf90ec is triggered by a crafted input to the cobs_decode function, exploiting an integer handling flaw (CWE-400) over the UART serial interface. Physical proximity to the hardware is required, rendering the NVD-assigned CVSS vector (AV:N) inconsistent with the description's explicit 'physically-proximate' access requirement - a likely scoring error that significantly overstates remote risk. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires direct physical access to the UART serial port of the AcubeSAT OBC hardware - the attacker must be co-located with the device and able to connect a serial interface (e.g., USB-to-UART adapter) to the UART pins or header. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment Real-world risk is substantially lower than the CVSS 7.5 base score implies. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker with physical access to a satellite integration lab connects to the AcubeSAT OBC UART debug port, constructs a malformed COBS-encoded byte sequence designed to trigger the integer handling flaw in cobs_decode, and transmits it over the serial interface, causing the OBC software to crash or hang and resulting in a denial of service to the satellite's on-board computer. No public proof-of-concept exploit has been identified; physical hardware access is an absolute prerequisite.
Remediation No vendor-released patch or fixed version has been identified at time of analysis; the only reference is a third-party GitHub issue rather than an official SpaceDot advisory. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, inventory all systems running SpaceDot AcubeSAT OBC software and document their physical security posture, particularly UART interface accessibility. …
