Impact

A vulnerability in NASA cFS up to version 7.0.0 on 32‑bit platforms allows an attacker to cause an integer overflow in the CFE_TBL_ValidateCodecLoadSize function used by the passthru codec module. This overflow can lead to memory corruption or denial‑of‑service conditions if crafted input is processed, potentially affecting system integrity or availability.

Affected Systems

The affected product is NASA Corporate Flight System (cFS). Versions up to 7.0.0 on 32‑bit architectures are impacted, while newer releases are not yet affected.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score is 2.1 indicating low severity. No EPSS score is available, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. The attack requires crafting specific input to trigger the overflow, and the description indicates a high complexity and difficult exploitation, implying a limited risk in typical use.
