  - Fast DDS is a C++ implementation of the DDS (Data Distribution Service) standard of the OMG (Object
    Management Group ). Prior to versions 3.4.1, 3.3.1, and 2.6.11, a heap buffer overflow exists in the Fast-
    DDS DATA_FRAG receive path. An un authenticated sender can transmit a single malformed RTPS DATA_FRAG
    packet where `fragmentSize` and `sampleSize` are craft ed to violate internal assumptions. Due to a 4-byte
    alignment step during fragment metadata initialization, the code write s past the end of the allocated
    payload buffer, causing immediate crash (DoS) and potentially enabling memory corruption ( RCE risk).
    Versions 3.4.1, 3.3.1, and 2.6.11 patch the issue. (CVE-2025-62799)
