A denial of service vulnerability exists in the parseNormalModeParameters functionality of MZ Automation GmbH libiec61850 1.5.0. A specially-crafted series of network requests can lead to denial of service. An attacker can send a sequence of malformed iec61850 messages to trigger this vulnerability.
In the MZ Automation LibIEC61850 in versions prior to 1.5.1 an unauthenticated attacker can craft a goose message, which may result in a denial of service.
A NULL pointer dereference in AcseConnection_parseMessage at src/mms/iso_acse/acse.c of libiec61850 v1.5.0 can lead to a segmentation fault or application crash.
In libIEC61850 before version 1.4.3, when a message with COTP message length field with value < 4 is received an integer underflow will happen leading to heap buffer overflow. This can cause an application crash or on some platforms even the execution of remote code. If your application is used in open networks or there are untrusted nodes in the network it is highly recommend to apply the patch. This was patched with commit 033ab5b. Users of version 1.4.x should upgrade to version 1.4.3 when available. As a workaround changes of commit 033ab5b can be applied to older versions.
MmsValue_decodeMmsData in mms/iso_mms/server/mms_access_result.c in libIEC61850 through 1.4.0 has a heap-based buffer overflow when parsing the MMS_BIT_STRING data type.
In libIEC61850 1.4.0, getNumberOfElements in mms/iso_mms/server/mms_access_result.c has an out-of-bounds read vulnerability, related to bufPos and elementLength.
In libIEC61850 1.4.0, StringUtils_createStringFromBuffer in common/string_utilities.c has an integer signedness issue that could lead to an attempted excessive memory allocation and denial of service.
In libIEC61850 1.4.0, MmsValue_newOctetString in mms/iso_mms/common/mms_value.c has an integer signedness error that can lead to an attempted excessive memory allocation.
