In open62541 v1.5.5, the server-side AddReferences implementation contains an incomplete validation flaw for non-local ExpandedNodeId targets. A remote attacker can send a crafted AddReferencesRequest with an empty targetServerUri and a non-zero targetNodeId.serverIndex, causing the target node pointer to remain NULL while execution continues.
An integer overflow in the UAVariant arrayDimensions product computation in open62541 may allow a remote attacker to read out-of-bounds heap memory, potentially disclosing sensitive information.
An integer overflow in the UAVariant arrayDimensions product computation in open62541 may allow a remote attacker to trigger an out-of-bounds write.
An unsigned integer underflow in the PubSub signature verification path in open62541 may allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service via a crafted UDP packet.
Open62541 v1.4.6 is has an assertion failure in fuzzbinarydecode, which leads to a crash.
An unauthenticated remote attacker can exhaust server memory via the FindServers Discovery Service in open62541. The serverUris field of FindServersRequest is not validated for length or array size. An attacker can declare an arbitrarily large string (up to ~3.9 GB) delivered across intermediate chunks without ever sending the final chunk. The server buffers all chunks in RAM indefinitely until the SecureChannel times out. The attack is pre-session and bypasses all encryption configuration. The issue affects open62541: from 1.4.0 through 1.4.16, from 1.5.0 through 1.5.4, master.
An unauthenticated remote attacker can exhaust server memory via the GetEndpoints Discovery Service in open62541. The endpointUrl field of GetEndpointsRequest is not validated for length. An attacker can declare an arbitrarily large string (up to ~4.09 GB via the UInt32 length field) delivered across intermediate chunks without ever sending the final chunk. The server buffers all chunks in RAM indefinitely until the SecureChannel times out. The attack is pre-session and bypasses all encryption configurations.
The issue affects open62541: from 1.4.0 through 1.4.16, from 1.5.0 through 1.5.4, master.
An issue in open62541 v.1.5.5 and before allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service via crafted CreateSubscription, CreateMonitoredItems(Sampling), Publish, TransferSubscriptions, and DeleteSubscriptions requests
open62541 1.5.5 contains an out-of-bounds read in the client-side function responseReadNamespacesArray() in src/client/uaclientconnect.c.
An issue in open62541 v.1.5.5 and before allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service via the UAClientgetRemoteDataTypes component
Buffer Overflow vulnerability exists in open62541 1.5.5 when the Local Discovery Server (LDS) is built with multicast discovery enabled through the MDNSD backend. An unauthenticated remote attacker can send a RegisterServer or RegisterServer2 request containing many unique discoveryUrls. This allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service.
open62541 1.5.5 contains a buffer-overflow in the high-level attribute reading logic in src/client/uaclienthighlevel.c. This allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.
open62541 1.5.5 contains a heap-based buffer overflow in the default HistoryRead path when the default history database is used with the memory backend.
Buffer Overflow vulnerability in open62541 v1.5.5 allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service via the Discovery/LDS handling.
An issue in open62541 v.1.5.5 and before allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service via the NodeManagement type-instantiation logic component
In open62541 1.5.5, a server-side use-after-free exists in the local MonitoredItem callback path. The issue occurs when UASubscriptionlocalPublish continues to use the current UANotification after a callback invokes UAServerdeleteMonitoredItem for the current local MonitoredItem. This allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.
Buffer Overflow vulnerability in open62541 v1.5.5 allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service via the ServiceCall validates input arguments against runtime-resolved InputArguments metadata
The package open62541/open62541 before 1.2.5, from 1.3-rc1 and before 1.3.1 are vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS) due to a missing limitation on the number of received chunks - per single session or in total for all concurrent sessions. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by sending an unlimited number of huge chunks (e.g. 2GB each) without sending the Final closing chunk.
VariantencodeJson in open62541 1.x before 1.0.4 has an out-of-bounds write for a large recursion depth.
A vulnerability was identified in open62541 up to 1.5.5. Affected by this issue is the function responseReadNamespacesArray of the file src/client/uaclientconnect.c of the component Shared Client Library. Such manipulation of the argument ServerNamespaceArray leads to null pointer dereference. The attack can be executed remotely. The attack requires a high level of complexity. The exploitation is known to be difficult. The exploit is publicly available and might be used. The project closed the issue report, stating that this is not the official way to report a security vulnerability.
