CVE-2026-62974
BACnet Stack: Remote unauthenticated DoS in `Life_Safety_Zone` `PROP_ZONE_MEMBERS` WriteProperty parsing
Published Nov 13, 2026
CVSS 4.0 · 8.7 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 malformed but non-empty BACnet WriteProperty request can drive the official server demo into a non-terminating request-processing loop with repeated heap-backed side effects. This results in a remote unauthenticated denial of service via uncontrolled resource consumption and a non-terminating request path. This issue has been patched in versions 1.4.5, 1.5.1, and 1.6.0.
