CVE-2026-42469
HighSummary
CVE-2026-42469 describes a buffer overflow vulnerability in Open Vehicle Monitoring System 3 (OVMS3) version 3.3.005. The parser in canformat_canswitch.cpp does not properly validate a CANswitch DLC value, allowing remote attackers to cause a denial of service or potentially execute arbitrary code via crafted CANswitch frames.
Risk Assessment
Organizations may be exposed to attacks that lead to denial of service or execution of malicious code, which can result in serious security implications for the system.
Recommendation
It is recommended to update the OVMS3 system to the latest version that includes security patches and to implement additional protective measures against remote attacks.
