CVE-2024-30799

Flight-control interruption via undisclosed Breach Return flaw

Published Apr 22, 2024 · Updated Nov 22, 2024

Denial of service in PX4 Autopilot 1.14 and earlier allows attackers to interrupt flight control through the Breach Return Point function. The public issue says the configured point is ignored in favor of the home point; PX4 has not published any buffer, input, or copy operation explaining the CWE-120 mapping. The CNA claims remote code execution, but CISA assesses local access, low privileges, high complexity, user interaction, and availability-only impact; the evidence does not reconcile the conflict.
