CVE-2005-0706
Buffer overflow in discdb.c for grip 3.1.2 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code by causing the cddb lookup to return more matches than expected.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (4.62%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
