CVSS v3.1 |
| A DHCP server, or anyone on the LAN who answers a DISCOVER first, can make the client read about a
kilobyte past the end of the received message.
The option walk keeps a pointer and an offset in step, and the only bound check uses the offset:
```c
/* addons/dhcp/nxd_dhcp_client.c:7538, 7572 */
while (i < length - 1)
{
...
size = *(++data); /* data moves 1: type -> length byte */
data += size + 1; /* data moves size + 1 more */
i += size + 1; /* i moves only size + 1 */
}
```
A TLV option occupies size + 2 bytes. `data` is advanced by size + 2 in total, `i` by size + 1, so
the offset falls one byte behind the real read position for every option the walk skips. After
enough skipped options the check `i < length - 1` still holds while `data` is already past the end
of the message, and the subsequent read of the type and length bytes comes from whatever follows.
A single OFFER carrying a long run of skippable options is enough:
```
ERROR: AddressSanitizer: heap-buffer-overflow
READ of size 1 at 0x61b000000794 thread T5
#0 _nx_dhcp_search_buffer addons/dhcp/nxd_dhcp_client.c:7541
#1 _nx_dhcp_get_option_value addons/dhcp/nxd_dhcp_client.c:7082
0x61b000000794 is located 164 bytes to the right of 1648-byte region
```
A well formed OFFER through the same path is handled normally, the client records the offer and
moves to REQUESTING, so the difference is the option layout rather than the harness.
The read runs in the DHCP client thread while the client is still unconfigured, so it happens on
every boot in reach of a hostile DHCP responder. The values read are used to configure the
interface, which is how the disclosed bytes become observable.
Advance `i` by size + 2, or derive the bound from `data` rather than keeping a second counter. |
| An unprivileged, memory-protected ThreadX module can have the kernel read and write memory at addresses of its choosing, in privileged mode, and can use that to clear the MPU enable bit and remove its own isolation boundary.
The Module Manager decided whether a privileged service could dereference an object address a module named by asking only whether that address fell outside the module. The manager's object pool is outside every module, so the test was satisfied by an address shifted into the interior of one of the module's own privileged allocations, which denotes no object at all. The bytes such an address presents as a control block are bytes the module put there through ordinary create and set services, so the control block ID at the front of them could be made to read as any type the module chose, and the `_txe_` layer's ID test then agreed. The reported chain uses that to reach a privileged `memset` across an attacker-chosen range. |
| An unauthenticated client can drain the RTSP server's packet pool with a couple of dozen requests
that carry a Session header the parser cannot convert.
The Session branch returns the raw NetX error code instead of an RTSP status code:
```c
/* addons/rtsp/nx_rtsp_server.c:2754 */
status = _nx_utility_string_to_uint(field_value_ptr, field_value_length, &session_id);
if (status)
{
return(status); /* NX_INVALID_PARAMETERS / NX_SIZE_ERROR / NX_OVERFLOW */
}
```
Every other branch of the same function maps its failure to an RTSP status first. The CSeq branch
eighteen lines earlier does exactly that (line 2736 returns NX_RTSP_STATUS_CODE_BAD_REQUEST). The
raw code then reaches `_nx_rtsp_server_error_response_send` (nx_rtsp_server.c:1234), which does not
recognise it, takes a path that returns without releasing the response packet it already allocated,
and the block never goes back to the pool.
Six requests with an empty Session header against a 22 packet pool:
```
valid requests: after request 6: pool available = 21, AFTER = 22 / 22
malformed requests: after request 6: pool available = 16, AFTER = 17 / 22
```
One block per request, not returned when the client disconnects. Twenty six requests take the pool
to zero and the server starts failing allocations, after which it serves nobody. If the pool is
shared with the rest of the application, as it is in the shipped sample, the rest of the stack
stops with it.
Convert the `_nx_utility_string_to_uint` failure in the Session branch into
NX_RTSP_STATUS_CODE_BAD_REQUEST the way the CSeq branch does, and release the response packet on
every exit path of `_nx_rtsp_server_error_response_send`. |
| Improper validation of non-secure (NS) pointers in multiple TrustZone-M non-secure callable (NSC) entry functions allows an attacker executing in the non-secure world to supply pointers to secure memory. The secure firmware subsequently dereferences these attacker-controlled pointers without verifying that they reference non-secure memory, resulting in unintended disclosure of secure memory contents. This violates the isolation guarantees provided by Arm TrustZone-M and can be leveraged as a memory disclosure or corruption primitive that may enable recovery of sensitive cryptographic material. |
| Any host on the LAN can send two mDNS records and make the responder write past the end of its
transmit packet.
The string table stores each name in a slot rounded up to a multiple of four:
```c
/* addons/mdns/nxd_mdns.c:11436, 11443, 11447 */
memory_len = ((memory_len & 0xFFFFFFFC) + 8) & 0xFFFFFFFF;
...
len = *((USHORT*)(p - 2)); /* slot size, not string length */
if ((len == memory_len) && ... _nx_mdns_name_match(start, memory_ptr, memory_size) ...)
```
The lookup that decides whether an incoming name is already stored compares the rounded slot size,
so names of 12, 13, 14 and 15 characters share one bucket. A second name in the bucket is answered
with the pointer to the first, and the record then carries a string up to three bytes longer than
the length the caller accounted for. `_nx_mdns_packet_rr_add` (nxd_mdns.c:8911) sizes its only
bound check from that stale length, and `_nx_mdns_name_string_encode` writes the real string.
Two PTR records are enough, both ordinary mDNS responses to a `_http._tcp` query, with owner names
whose lengths fall in the same bucket:
```
==87491==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: heap-buffer-overflow
WRITE of size 1 at 0x611000000124 thread T5
#0 _nx_mdns_name_string_encode addons/mdns/nxd_mdns.c:13096
#1 _nx_mdns_packet_rr_add addons/mdns/nxd_mdns.c:8911
0x611000000124 is 0 bytes to the right of 228-byte region
```
The overflow is one to three bytes of attacker-influenced name data past `nx_packet_data_end`. In a
normal pool that lands in the next packet in the same pool rather than in a redzone, so the visible
effect is a corrupted neighbouring packet or a corrupted pool free list rather than a clean crash.
Compare the slot size against the stored string length before declaring a match, or keep the
string length in the slot header and return it to the caller so the encoder and the bound check
agree. |
| The security fix for CVE-2025-0728 in eclipse-threadx NetX Duo refactors error handling in the HTTP server PUT process to use a shared cleanup label, but this unified cleanup path unconditionally calls fx_file_close() even when the file was never successfully opened. Multiple error branches jump to the shared cleanup label before any file open operation has occurred, causing fx_file_close() to operate on an uninitialized file handle, leading to undefined behavior, double-close issues, or memory corruption. |
| The vulnerability stems from an incorrect error-checking logic in the CreateCounter() function (in threadx/utility/rtos_compatibility_layers/OSEK/tx_osek.c) when handling the return value of osek_get_counter(). Specifically, the current code checks if cntr_id equals 0u to determine failure, but @osek_get_counter() actually returns E_OS_SYS_STACK (defined as 12U) when it fails. This mismatch causes the error branch to never execute even when the counter pool is exhausted.
As a result, when the counter pool is depleted, the code proceeds to cast the error code (12U) to a pointer (OSEK_COUNTER *), creating a wild pointer. Subsequent writes to members of this pointer lead to writes to illegal memory addresses (e.g., 0x0000000C), which can trigger immediate HardFaults or silent memory corruption.
This vulnerability poses significant risks, including potential denial-of-service attacks (via repeated calls to exhaust the counter pool) and unauthorized memory access. |
| A denial-of-service vulnerability exists in the NetX IPv6 component functionality of Eclipse ThreadX NetX Duo. A specially crafted network packet of "Packet Too Big" with more than 15 different source address can lead to denial of service. An attacker can send a malicious packet to trigger this vulnerability. |
| The function _ux_host_class_storage_media_mount() is responsible for mounting partitions on a USB mass storage device. When it encounters an extended partition entry in the partition table, it recursively calls itself to mount the next logical partition.
This recursion occurs in _ux_host_class_storage_partition_read(), which parses up to four partition entries. If an extended partition is found (with type UX_HOST_CLASS_STORAGE_PARTITION_EXTENDED or EXTENDED_LBA_MAPPED), the code invokes:
_ux_host_class_storage_media_mount(storage, sector + _ux_utility_long_get(...));
There is no limit on the recursion depth or tracking of visited sectors. As a result, a malicious or malformed disk image can include cyclic or excessively deep chains of extended partitions, causing the function to recurse until stack overflow occurs. |
| In FileX before 6.4.2, the file support module for Eclipse Foundation ThreadX, there was a possible buffer overflow in the FileX RAM disk driver. It could cause a remote execurtion after receiving a crafted sequence of packets |
| In Eclipse Foundation NextX Duo before 6.4.4, a module of ThreadX, the _nx_secure_tls_process_clienthello() function was missing length verification of
certain SSL/TLS client hello message: the ciphersuite length and
compression method length. In case of an attacker-crafted message with
values outside of the expected range, it could cause an out-of-bound
read. |
| In NetX Duo version before 6.4.4, the component of Eclipse Foundation ThreadX, there was an incorrect bound check resulting it out by two out of bound read. |
| In NextX Duo before 6.4.4, in the HTTP client module, the network support code for Eclipse Foundation ThreadX, the parsing of HTTP header fields was missing bounds verification. A crafted server response could cause undefined behavior. |

| Azure RTOS USBx is a USB host, device, and on-the-go (OTG) embedded stack, fully integrated with Azure RTOS ThreadX and available for all Azure RTOS ThreadX–supported processors. Azure RTOS USBX implementation of host support for USB CDC ECM includes an integer underflow and a buffer overflow in the `_ux_host_class_cdc_ecm_mac_address_get` function which may be potentially exploited to achieve remote code execution or denial of service. Setting mac address string descriptor length to a `0` or `1` allows an attacker to introduce an integer underflow followed (string_length) by a buffer overflow of the `cdc_ecm -> ux_host_class_cdc_ecm_node_id` array. This may allow one to redirect the code execution flow or introduce a denial of service. The fix has been included in USBX release [6.1.12](https://github.com/azure-rtos/usbx/releases/tag/v6.1.12_rel). Improved mac address string descriptor length validation to check for unexpectedly small values may be used as a workaround. |
| Azure RTOS USBX is a USB host, device, and on-the-go (OTG) embedded stack. In versions prior to 6.1.10, an attacker can cause a buffer overflow by providing the Azure RTOS USBX host stack a HUB descriptor with `bNbPorts` set to a value greater than `UX_MAX_TT` which defaults to 8. For a `bNbPorts` value of 255, the implementation of `ux_host_class_hub_descriptor_get` function will modify the contents of `hub` -> `ux_host_class_hub_device` -> `ux_device_hub_tt` array violating the end boundary by 255 - `UX_MAX_TT` items. The USB host stack needs to validate the number of ports reported by the hub, and if the value is larger than UX_MAX_TT, USB stack needs to reject the request. This fix has been included in USBX release 6.1.10. |

| Azure RTOS USBX is a high-performance USB host, device, and on-the-go (OTG) embedded stack, that is fully integrated with Azure RTOS ThreadX. The case is, in [_ux_host_class_pima_read](https://github.com/azure-rtos/usbx/blob/master/common/usbx_host_classes/src/ux_host_class_pima_read.c), there is data length from device response, returned in the very first packet, and read by [L165 code](https://github.com/azure-rtos/usbx/blob/082fd9db09a3669eca3358f10b8837a5c1635c0b/common/usbx_host_classes/src/ux_host_class_pima_read.c#L165), as header_length. Then in [L178 code](https://github.com/azure-rtos/usbx/blob/082fd9db09a3669eca3358f10b8837a5c1635c0b/common/usbx_host_classes/src/ux_host_class_pima_read.c#L178), there is a “if” branch, which check the expression of “(header_length - UX_HOST_CLASS_PIMA_DATA_HEADER_SIZE) > data_length” where if header_length is smaller than UX_HOST_CLASS_PIMA_DATA_HEADER_SIZE, calculation could overflow and then [L182 code](https://github.com/azure-rtos/usbx/blob/082fd9db09a3669eca3358f10b8837a5c1635c0b/common/usbx_host_classes/src/ux_host_class_pima_read.c#L182) the calculation of data_length is also overflow, this way the later [while loop start from L192](https://github.com/azure-rtos/usbx/blob/082fd9db09a3669eca3358f10b8837a5c1635c0b/common/usbx_host_classes/src/ux_host_class_pima_read.c#L192) can move data_pointer to unexpected address and cause write buffer overflow. The fix has been included in USBX release [6.1.12](https://github.com/azure-rtos/usbx/releases/tag/v6.1.12_rel). The following can be used as a workaround: Add check of `header_length`: 1. It must be greater than `UX_HOST_CLASS_PIMA_DATA_HEADER_SIZE`. 1. It should be greater or equal to the current returned data length (`transfer_request -> ux_transfer_request_actual_length`). |
