CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe vulnerability affects Docker deployments of Ground Station prior to version 0.6.0, allowing unauthenticated network peers to exploit the Socket.IO server's service_control event handler. By sending a single restart_service command, attackers can terminate critical processes, leading to a persistent denial-of-service condition that disrupts satellite tracking and related operations. Organizations using this software should prioritize patching to mitigate the risk of service interruptions.

Original NVD Description
Ground Station prior to 0.6.0 contains an unauthenticated denial-of-service vulnerability in the Socket.IO server's service_control event handler that allows any unauthenticated network peer to forcibly terminate the ground-station process by sending a single restart_service command. Attackers can connect to the Socket.IO server on port 7000 without credentials due to disabled authentication enforcement and a wildcard CORS policy, then emit the service_control event to terminate all active satellite-tracking sessions, SDR recording pipelines, demodulators, decoders, and rotator controllers, with repeated triggering possible in Docker deployments to create a persistent denial-of-service condition.
