UDP security loophole?

It has come to my attention that there is a potential security loophole for teams (like us) who are using UDP to send data from the dashboard to our robot. The LabVIEW UDP Recieve function (and to my knowledge, UDP in general) does not check sender IP. Hypothetically, it would be possible for a third party to send faulty packets to our robot (by sending UDP packets to 10.te.am.2). It does not seem to be a rule against said communications. Is there a good way to confirm sender IP in a UDP connection?
