| Cause | Fix | |-------|-----| | Firmware bug in sender | Patch the sender’s packet assembly function. Validate length before sending. | | Corrupted transmission | Add or improve error detection (CRC32, checksum). Implement retransmission on bad checksum. | | Version mismatch | Update both sides to same protocol version or add version negotiation handshake. | | Buffer mishandling in receiver | Use bounded buffers and check that recv() reads exactly len bytes before parsing. | | Race condition | Lock the receive buffer during parsing; use atomic operations or mutexes. |
