CVE-2023-29156: Bluemark Dronescout DS230 Firmware

Medium severity, CVSS 6.8. EPSS: 0.3% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

DroneScout ds230 Remote ID receiver from BlueMark Innovations is affected by an information loss vulnerability through traffic injection. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by injecting, at the right times, spoofed Open Drone ID (ODID) messages which force the DroneScout ds230 Remote ID receiver to drop real Remote ID (RID) information and, instead, generate and transmit JSON encoded MQTT messages containing crafted RID information. Consequently, the MQTT broker, typically operated by a system integrator, will have no access to the drones’ real RID information. This issue affects DroneScout ds230 in default configuration from firmware version 20211210-1627 through 20230329-1042.

Affected products

• Bluemark Dronescout DS230 Firmware: from 20211210-1627, up to and including 20230329-1042
