CVE-2025-62602
CWE-122Published: February 3, 2026· Updated: Jun 17, 2026
Official Description
Fast DDS is a C++ implementation of the DDS (Data Distribution Service) standard of the OMG (Object Management Group
). Prior to versions 3.4.1, 3.3.1, and 2.6.11, when the security mode is enabled, modifying the DATA Submessage within an
SPDP packet sent by a publisher causes a heap buffer overflow, resulting in remote termination of Fast-DDS. If the fields
of `PID_IDENTITY_TOKEN` or `PID_PERMISSIONS_TOKEN` in the DATA Submessage are tampered with — specially `readOctetVector`
reads an unchecked `vecsize` that is propagated unchanged into `readData` as the `length` parameter — the attacker-contro
lled `vecsize` can trigger a 32-bit integer overflow during the `length` calculation. That overflow can cause large alloca
tion attempt that quickly leads to OOM, enabling a remotely-triggerable denial-of-service and remote process termination.
Versions 3.4.1, 3.3.1, and 2.6.11 patch the issue.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2025-62602 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
The vulnerability requires no privileges and no user interaction, making it a prime target for automated exploitation campaigns and worm-like propagation.
A successful exploit results in availability disruption (denial of service), with a CVSS base score of 7.5.
