CVE-2026-84698
PX4 Autopilot contains a heap buffer overflow vulnerability in the sd_bench command that writes a four-byte block number into a user-supplied sized allocation.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.27%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
PX4 Autopilot contains a heap buffer overflow vulnerability in the sd_bench command that writes a four-byte block number into a user-supplied sized allocation. Attackers can invoke sd_bench with a block size below four bytes to overflow the heap buffer and potentially execute code or crash the system.
