An issue was discovered in the ROS communications-related packages (aka roscomm or ros-melodic-ros-comm) through 1.14.3. parseOptions() in tools/rosbag/src/record.cpp has an integer overflow when a crafted split option can be entered on the command line.

An issue was discovered in the ROS communications-related packages (aka roscomm or ros-melodic-ros-comm) through 1.14.3. ROSASSERTMSG only works when ROSASSERTENABLED is defined. This leads to a problem in the remove() function in clients/roscpp/src/libros/spinner.cpp. When ROSASSERTENABLED is not defined, the iterator loop will run out of the scope of the array, and cause denial of service for other components (that depend on the communication-related functions of this package). NOTE: The reporter of this issue now believes it was a false alarm.

An issue was discovered in the ROS communications-related packages (aka roscomm or ros-melodic-ros-comm) through 1.14.3. A buffer overflow allows attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via an IP address with a long hostname.
