Description
On the first DTLS ClientHello, the parser copies a device-claimed session_id length and validates the



ciphersuite-list length against the total record length instead of the remaining bytes. An unauthenticated



peer drives an OOB source read of up to 255 bytes, and those bytes are echoed verbatim into the outgoing



ServerHello, disclosing adjacent process memory over the network. The crash variant fires on the first



packet.

Impact

A flaw in the DTLS ClientHello parsing logic of NetX Duo causes an out‑of‑bounds read of up to 255 bytes when the session_id length is copied and the cipher suite list length is validated against the record length instead of the remaining bytes. The affected data are echoed back in the ServerHello, exposing adjacent process memory to an unauthenticated network peer. The vulnerability leads to a confidentiality breach without requiring authentication, though a crash variant can trigger on the very first packet.

Affected Systems

The affected product is NetX Duo from the Eclipse Foundation. No specific firmware or release versions are listed in the advisory, so any build containing the vulnerable DTLS ClientHello parser is potentially impacted.

Risk and Exploitability

With a CVSS score of 8.8 the flaw is considered high severity. The EPSS score is not provided, and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. The likely attack vector is a remote network connection; an unauthenticated peer can send a crafted DTLS ClientHello to trigger the out‑of‑bounds read and obtain memory contents.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade NetX Duo to the latest firmware that includes the DTLS parsing fix.
  • If an upgrade is not immediately possible, block or heavily rate‑limit incoming DTLS connections from untrusted clients until the patch can be applied.
  • If DTLS is not required for your application, disable it or replace it with a version that properly validates session_id and cipher suite lengths.
