Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2025-64098

medium Nessus Plugin ID 275736

Language:

Synopsis

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed with a vulnerability that the vendor indicates will not be patched.

Description

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

 - Fast DDS is a C++ implementation of the DDS (Data Distribution Service) standard of the OMG (Object Management Group ). Prior to versions 3.4.1, 3.3.1, and 2.6.11, when the security mode is enabled, modifying the DATA Submessage within an SPDP packet sent by a publisher causes an Out-Of-Memory (OOM) condition, resulting in remote termination of Fast-DDS. If t he fields of `PID_IDENTITY_TOKEN` or `PID_PERMISSIONS_TOKEN` in the DATA Submessage are tampered with specifically by ta mpering with the the `vecsize` value read by `readOctetVector` a 32-bit integer overflow can occur, causing `std::vector ::resize` to request an attacker-controlled size and quickly trigger OOM and remote process termination.
 Versions 3.4.1, 3 .3.1, and 2.6.11 patch the issue. (CVE-2025-64098)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
