CVE-2026-85427
HighCVSS 8.1Summary
MOOS essential-moos pAntler through 10.0.1 contains a remote code execution vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary programs by publishing a crafted MISSION_FILE message to the MOOSDB. Attackers can publish a mission file containing malicious Run entries that pAntler parses and executes via execvp() without authentication validation.
Risk Assessment
An unauthenticated attacker can execute arbitrary programs on the system, potentially leading to full system compromise or severe disruption.
Recommendation
Update MOOS essential-moos to the latest version if available, or restrict access to MOOSDB to trusted clients only.
Other vulnerabilities in MOOS essential-moos
See all- CVE-2026-85436High
MOOS essential-moos through 10.0.1 contains a buffer overflow vulnerability in CMOOSUDPLink::ReadPktFromArray() that allows remote attackers to corrupt heap memory by sending UDP datagrams with negative declared lengths. Attackers can send crafted UDP packets to the configured UDPListen port to trigger an oversized memcpy operation that writes past the destination buffer, causing heap corruption and denial of service.
- CVE-2026-85431High
MOOS essential-moos through version 10.0.1 contains an unauthenticated UDP packet injection vulnerability in pMOOSBridge when configured with UDPListen. Attackers can send crafted UDP packets to the configured port to inject arbitrary variables into the local MOOS community with spoofed source and community identifiers.
- CVE-2026-85430Critical
MOOS essential-moos through 10.0.1 contains an authentication bypass in pShare that accepts UDP datagrams from any source and republishes them with attacker-claimed identity. Attackers can inject messages under spoofed identities or crash the pShare process.
