Upgrade to patched MOOS-IvP release or apply the commit that validates connection source identity
Exploitation status reflects CISA's KEV catalog as we last synced it. Check the catalog directly.
Remote attackers can send spoofed NODE_MESSAGE packets to impersonate nodes and inject arbitrary variable notifications, altering device/vehicle behavior.
Patch when possible
- affected<= 24.8.1
As published in the CVE Program record. A version outside these ranges is not a statement that it is unaffected — vendors sometimes understate a range, and distribution-backported builds carry upstream numbers that do not reflect what was patched into them.
