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 stack-based out-of-bounds write / stack-buffer-overflow in bacnet-stack when the server processes a malicious Atomic-Read-File request in record access mode. The bug is triggered on the real server side. A crafted request can set an excessively large RecordCount, which is later used as the loop bound for writing record data into a stack-allocated BACNET_ATOMIC_READ_FILE_DATA data structure. However, the stack object only has space for one fileData element. When the loop reaches i = 1, the code computes &data->fileData[1], which is already out of bounds, and the resulting invalid pointer is passed down to memmove(), causing a stack-buffer-overflow. This issue has been patched in versions 1.4.4 and 1.5.1.
