What is CVE-2023-37915?

OpenDDS, an open-source C++ implementation of the Object Management Group (OMG) Data Distribution Service, is susceptible to a vulnerability that can lead to process crashes. This issue arises from the parsing of a malformed PID_PROPERTY_LIST in a DATA submessage during participant discovery. Attackers can exploit the vulnerability remotely by sending a corrupt DATA submessage to a known multicast port, causing a crash in the OpenDDS processes. Users are strongly encouraged to upgrade to version 3.25, as there are no known workarounds available.

Affected Version(s)
