CVE-2002-1215
Multiple format string vulnerabilities in heartbeat 0.4.9 and earlier (claimed as buffer overflows in some sources) allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via certain packets to UDP port 694 (incorrectly claimed as TCP in some sources).
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (6.33%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
