CVE-2003-1135

Buffer overflow in Yahoo!

LOW 2.6EPSS 4.52%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (4.52%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

Buffer overflow in Yahoo! Messenger 5.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a file send request (sendfile) with a large number of "%" (percent) characters after the Yahoo ID.
