Description
A vulnerability has been found in Systerel S2OPC up to 1.7.3. Impacted is the function SOPC_NodeMgtHelperInternal_AddVariableNodeAttributes of the file src/ClientServer/address_space/internal/sopc_node_mgt_helper_internal.c of the component AddNodes Service. The manipulation of the argument UserAccessLevel leads to out-of-bounds read. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. A high degree of complexity is needed for the attack. The exploitability is considered difficult. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The identifier of the patch is aafbd37d381b618312ebdf5ddf57027f62c14fdd. It is suggested to install a patch to address this issue.

Impact

The AddNodes service in Systerel S2OPC allows manipulation of the UserAccessLevel parameter to trigger an out‑of‑bounds read in the SOPC_NodeMgtHelperInternal_AddVariableNodeAttributes function. This flaw is capable of leaking memory contents beyond the expected buffer, providing a pathway for information disclosure when exploited remotely. While the current exploit requires significant complexity and is difficult to execute, the vulnerability has been publicly disclosed and could be leveraged by determined attackers.

Affected Systems

Systerel S2OPC versions up to 1.7.3 are affected. The vulnerability resides in the src/ClientServer/address_space/internal/sopc_node_mgt_helper_internal.c file of the AddNodes Service component. All builds based on those releases without the identified patch are susceptible.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS v3.1 score of 6.3 indicates moderate severity, and the lack of an EPSS rating means current data does not quantify exploitation probability. The flaw is not yet listed in CISA's KEV catalog. Attackers would need remote access to the AddNodes endpoint and considerable expertise to craft a payload that triggers the out‑of‑bounds read, yet the publicly disclosed nature of the vulnerability increases the risk of future exploitation. Systems exposed to untrusted inputs should consider immediate mitigation.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the vendor supplied patch identified by commit aafbd37d381b618312ebdf5ddf57027f62c14fdd.
  • Upgrade Systerel S2OPC to a version that incorporates the fix (version 1.7.4 or later).
  • Apply strict access controls around the AddNodes service and validate all UserAccessLevel inputs to prevent out-of-bound reads.
