Issues with receiving serial data

I am transmitting 2-byte messages from the Max environment to a Nucleo F767zi via serial. The transmission works fine for individual messages, but when I send multiple messages that are "simultaneous", the board freezes and must be reset. I've tried both Serial and RawSerial and have compiled using online mbed and Platformio. I adapted the code and ran it on an Arduino Uno and it works fine. Help would be appreciated!

solenoid_board_serial

#include "mbed.h"

DigitalOut solenoid[] = {(LED1), (LED2), (LED3)};

RawSerial pc(USBTX, USBRX); // set tx, rx for serial object "pc"

volatile char c = 0; // Initialized to the NULL character
const char buffSize = 25;
volatile char inputBuffer[buffSize];
char bytesRcvd = 0;
const static char startMarker = 128;
const static char endMarker = 129;
bool readInProgress = false;

void noteOnOff(){
  char pitch = inputBuffer[0] - 1;
  char vel = inputBuffer[1];
  if (vel > 0) {
    solenoid[pitch] = 1;
  }
  if (vel == 0) {
    solenoid[pitch] = 0;
  }
}

void readSerial() {
  while(pc.readable()){
    c = pc.getc();

    if(c == endMarker) {
      noteOnOff();
      readInProgress = false;
      inputBuffer[bytesRcvd] = 0;
      bytesRcvd = 0;

    }
    if(readInProgress) {
        inputBuffer[bytesRcvd] = c;
        bytesRcvd ++;
        if (bytesRcvd == buffSize) {
          bytesRcvd = buffSize - 1;
        }
    }
    if(c == startMarker){
        bytesRcvd = 0;
        readInProgress = true;
    }
  }
}

int main() {
  pc.attach(&readSerial);
  while (1){}
}
