CVE-2024-48519
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedBuffer Overflow vulnerability in Ardupilot rover commit v.c56439b045162058df0ff136afea3081fcd06d38 allows a local attacker to cause a denial of service via the AP_InertialSensor_ADIS1647x.cpp, ArduRover, ADIS1647x Sensor component.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · moderate confidenceA buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the AP_InertialSensor_ADIS1647x.cpp sensor driver for the ADIS1647x inertial measurement unit in ArduRover. The vulnerability allows a local attacker to overflow a buffer during sensor data processing, leading to a denial of service condition.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Confirm ArduRover is in useIdentify if the system is running ArduRover firmware (not ArduPlane, ArduCopter, etc.) by checking the firmware binary name, build output, or system documentationAffected if The firmware is ArduRover and the ADIS1647x sensor driver is compiled into or loaded by the build
-
Identify the ArduRover versionLocate the firmware version string in the build artifacts, boot logs, or firmware metadata. Compare against the version containing commit v.c56439b045162058df0ff136afea3081fcd06d38Affected if The installed version predates the patched commit; any version before the fix contains the vulnerability
-
Check if ADIS1647x sensor driver is enabledInspect the build configuration or parameter settings to determine if AP_InertialSensor_ADIS1647x driver is compiled in or the sensor is configured (check for INS parameters, ADIS1647x-related parameters, or driver inclusion in the build)Affected if The ADIS1647x driver is included in the firmware build and the sensor is connected or configured for use
-
Verify sensor connection statusExamine runtime logs, sensor status, or hardware configuration to confirm whether an ADIS1647x IMU is actively connected and being read by the systemAffected if The ADIS1647x IMU is physically connected and the driver is actively processing data from it
A user is affected if running a pre-patched version of ArduRover with the ADIS1647x inertial sensor driver enabled and the sensor connected or configured for use.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataUpdate ArduRover to a version containing the patched commit following v.c56439b045162058df0ff136afea3081fcd06d38, which should include proper bounds checking in the ADIS1647x sensor driver code.
