CVE-2026-62973

BACnet Stack: Remote Global-Buffer-Overflow Read in readpropm via Malformed ReadPropertyMultiple-ACK

Published Nov 13, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 7.5 High EPSS n/a KEV · Not listed
Description
BACnet Stack is a BACnet open source protocol stack C library for embedded systems. Prior to versions 1.4.5, 1.5.1, and 1.6.0, a remote out-of-bounds read exists in the official BACnet client application apps/readpropm in bacnet-stack commit e2bdbf6. When readpropm sends a legitimate ReadPropertyMultiple request to a malicious BACnet/IP peer, the peer can reply with a malformed but structurally valid ReadPropertyMultiple-ACK that drives the client into a global-buffer-overflow read on the global receive buffer Rx_Buf. This issue has been patched in versions 1.4.5, 1.5.1, and 1.6.0.
