Intent-state corruption via oversized switch port number
Published Apr 20, 2023 · Updated Feb 5, 2025
Improper input validation in ONOS 2.5.1 allows attackers to corrupt PointToPoint intent state via an oversized switch port number. The add-intent operation accepts the malformed port value and places the intent in the CORRUPT state, leaving the intent inconsistent with network flow rules. Exploitation requires control-plane application or REST-client access to the internal intent framework and can mislead network operators about enforced connectivity.
