Short explanation

CVE-2026-48741 in libIEC61850 is a NULL pointer dereference vulnerability that can crash servers via a remote MMS Read request [S0].

Why does it matter?

This vulnerability matters because it allows remote attackers to trigger denial-of-service conditions against affected servers utilizing industrial communication protocols [S0].

What should be done?

  • Upgrading to version 1.6.2 [S0]
  • Following vendor advisories [S0]

Show the technical text from the sources

libIEC61850 is an open-source implementation of IEC 61850 client and server protocols including MMS, GOOSE, Sampled Values, and R-Session. Prior to 1.6.2, alternateArrayAccess in src/mms/iso_mms/server/mms_read_service.c does not validate an alternate-access sub-array range when numberOfElements is greater than zero. An out-of-range MmsValue_getElement call returns NULL, and the sub-array branch passes that value to MmsValue_isDeletable, causing a NULL pointer dereference. A remote MMS Read request can therefore crash servers whose data models contain arrays, while the single-element error path handles the same invalid index safely. This issue is fixed in version 1.6.2.
