CVE-2022-48198: Ntpd Driver Project Ntpd Driver

Critical severity, CVSS 9.8. EPSS: 1.1% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The ntpd_driver component before 1.3.0 and 2.x before 2.2.0 for Robot Operating System (ROS) allows attackers, who control the source code of a different node in the same ROS application, to change a robot's behavior. This occurs because a topic name depends on the attacker-controlled time_ref_topic parameter.

Affected products

• Ntpd Driver Project Ntpd Driver: before 1.3.0 (fixed in 1.3.0); from 2.0.0, before 2.2.0 (fixed in 2.2.0)
