## Affected

- moos-ivp: through 24.8.1

## Description

MOOS-IvP pMarineViewer through 24.8.1 fails to limit the number of tracked node identities from NODE_REPORT messages, allowing attackers to exhaust memory by supplying unbounded distinct node names. Attackers can publish crafted NODE_REPORT data to cause memory exhaustion and stall the operator display without authentication.
