CVE-2026-7425 PUBLISHED

Out-of-Bounds Read in Router Advertisement Option Parser in FreeRTOS-Plus-TCP

Assigner: AMZN
Reserved: 29.04.2026 Published: 29.04.2026 Updated: 29.04.2026

Insufficient option length validation in the IPv6 Router Advertisement parser in FreeRTOS-Plus-TCP before V4.2.6 and V4.4.1 allows an adjacent network actor to cause a denial of service (device crash) by sending a crafted Router Advertisement with a truncated PREFIX_INFORMATION option that is smaller than the expected structure size.

To mitigate this issue, users should upgrade to the fixed version when available.
