We’re happy to announce the next update of ROS Melodic. There are 3 new packages as well as 87 updated packages.

Besides the normal package updates, this update also includes a fix for [CVE-2021-37146](http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2021-37146) in ros\_comm. In versions of ros\_comm up to and including version 1.4.11, a malformed XMLRPC request would cause roscore to spend an excessive amount of time processing the request, leading to a potential denial-of-service with repeated requests. A fix to make the XMLRPC server in roscore reject malformed requests was merged in PR [https://github.com/ros/ros\_comm/pull/2186](https://github.com/ros/ros_comm/pull/2186), and released in ros\_comm version 1.14.12 (part of this sync). We rate the impact of this vulnerability as low; an attacker with access to roscore could do various other things to cause a denial-of-service attack or worse. To our knowledge this vulnerability was never seen in the wild. This issue was initially reported by Junfeng Yang from Didi Research America, LLC.​

Full details of the sync are below.
