CRITICAL9.8

Published 2026-09-03 · Source disclosure@vulncheck.com

Description

MOOS core-moos through 10.4.0 lacks authentication in the wire protocol, allowing unauthenticated clients to connect with full publish, subscribe, and database clear privileges. Attackers can bypass the compile-time protocol string check and connect with arbitrary client names to execute privileged operations including DB_CLEAR which resets all variables and clears client mail queues.

CVE-2026-85440
MOOS core-moos through 10.4.0 contains a pre-authentication heap overflow vulnerability in MOOSCommPkt packet handling that allows remote attackers to write arbitrary data by declaring a negative packet length. Attackers can exploit the signed integer check in InflateTo() and negative size conversion in recv() to overflow a four-byte heap buffer during the HandShake phase before authentication.

CVE-2026-85438
MOOS-IvP through 24.8.1 contains a buffer overflow vulnerability in StringToIvPFunction() where dimension, piece, and degree counts from encoded BHV_IPF payloads are used as allocation sizes and loop bounds without validation. Attackers can supply crafted payloads with mismatched dimension values to write attacker-controlled doubles past the end of the IvPBox weight array, causing memory corruption and potential code execution.

CVE-2026-85437
MOOS-IvP through 24.8.1 contains multiple buffer overflow vulnerabilities in IvP function string decoders that trust attacker-controlled length fields without validation. Attackers can craft malicious encoded strings with mismatched declared and actual field lengths to overflow heap and stack buffers, potentially achieving remote code execution through MOOS variables or alog files.
