Description
BACnet Stack is a BACnet open source protocol stack C library for embedded systems. Prior to versions 1.4.4 and 1.5.1, there is a client-side out-of-bounds read in the AtomicReadFile-ACK record-access handling path. The issue is caused by a mismatch between a remote returnedRecordCount value and the fixed local fileData[] array capacity in BACNET_ATOMIC_READ_FILE_DATA. The ACK decode path preserves the remote RecordCount, discards storage for excess records without truncating that count, and a downstream sink later iterates over the original RecordCount and indexes fileData[i] out of bounds. This issue has been patched in versions 1.4.4 and 1.5.1.
