Published Nov 12, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 5.3 Medium EPSS n/a KEV · Not listed
Description
BACnet Stack is a BACnet open source protocol stack C library for embedded systems. From versions 1.4.0 to before 1.4.4, and 1.5.0 to before 1.5.1, an uninitialized value use vulnerability in bacnet-stack's AtomicReadFile record-access ACK encoder allows unauthenticated remote attackers to corrupt the encoded OCTET STRING length and payload boundary in network responses by sending a crafted AtomicReadFile request that reaches a successful record-access path. This issue has been patched in versions 1.4.4 and 1.5.1.
