  - Fast DDS is a C++ implementation of the DDS (Data Distribution Service) standard of the OMG (Object
    Management Group ). ParticipantGenericMessage is the DDS Security control-message container that carries
    not only the handshake but also on going security-control traffic after the handshake, such as crypto-
    token exchange, rekeying, re-authentication, and token delivery for newly appearing endpoints. On receive,
    the CDR parser is invoked first and deserializes the `message_data` (i .e., the `DataHolderSeq`) via the
    `readParticipantGenericMessage  readDataHolderSeq` path. The `DataHolderSeq` is parsed sequentially: a
    sequence count (`uint32`), and for each DataHolder the `class_id` string (e.g. `DDS:Auth:PKI-DH:1.0+Req`),
    string properties (a sequence of key/value pairs), and binary properties (a name plus an octet-vector).
    The parser operat es at a stateless level and does not know higher-layer state (for example, whether the
    handshake has already completed), s o it fully unfolds the structure before distinguishing legitimate from
    malformed traffic. Because RTPS permits duplicates, delays, and retransmissions, a receiver must perform
    at least minimal structural parsing to check identity and sequence n umbers before discarding or
    processing a message; the current implementation, however, does not peek only at a minimal header and
    instead parses the entire `DataHolderSeq`. As a result, prior to versions 3.4.1, 3.3.1, and 2.6.11, this
    parsi ng behavior can trigger an out-of-memory condition and remotely terminate the process. Versions
    3.4.1, 3.3.1, and 2.6.11 p atch the issue. (CVE-2025-62603)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
