      "value": "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."

      "value": "Ground Station anterior a la 0.6.0 contiene una vulnerabilidad de denegación de servicio no autenticada en el gestor de eventos service_control del servidor Socket.IO que permite a cualquier par de red no autenticado terminar forzosamente el proceso de la estación terrestre enviando un único comando restart_service. Los atacantes pueden conectarse al servidor Socket.IO en el puerto 7000 sin credenciales debido a la aplicación de autenticación deshabilitada y una política CORS de comodín, luego emitir el evento service_control para terminar todas las sesiones activas de seguimiento de satélites, tuberías de grabación SDR, demoduladores, decodificadores y controladores de rotador, con activación repetida posible en despliegues de Docker para crear una condición de denegación de servicio persistente."
