Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions libIEC61850 versions prior to 1.6.2
Description The parseUserInformation() function in src/mms/iso acse/acse.c fails to properly validate the negative bufPos returned by BerDecoder decodeLength() for truncated long-form lengths, checking for zero instead. This allows an unauthenticated remote peer to send a malformed AARE PDU (Application Association Request) during association, leading to an infinite CPU loop or a one-byte out-of-bounds read and process abort if the preceding byte is inaccessible.
Recommendations Update to version 1.6.2.
