CVE-2001-1389
Multiple vulnerabilities in xinetd 2.3.0 and earlier, and additional variants until 2.3.3, may allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code, primarily via buffer overflows or improper NULL termination.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.34%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
