CVE-2026-42485
High 7.5
In plain English
A high-severity stack buffer overflow in the affected software. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.3% (higher than 24% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
AGL agl-service-can-low-level contains a stack buffer overflow in the uds-c library. The send_diagnostic_request function in uds.c allocates a 6-byte stack buffer (MAX_DIAGNOSTIC_PAYLOAD_SIZE=6) but copies up to 7 bytes (MAX_UDS_REQUEST_PAYLOAD_LENGTH=7) via memcpy at an offset of 1+pid_length (2-3 bytes), resulting in 1-4 bytes of controlled stack overflow. The payload_length field (uint8_t) has no bounds check against the destination buffer. On 32-bit ARM automotive ECUs without stack canaries, this can lead to return address overwrite and RCE.
