CVE-2004-0317
Buffer overflow in eauth in Load Sharing Facility 4.x, 5.x, and 6.x allows local users or remote attackers within the LSF cluster to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long LSF_From_PC parameter.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (4.74%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
