CVE-2005-4776
Integer overflow in the FreeBSD compatibility code (freebsd_misc.c) in NetBSD-current, NetBSD-3, NetBSD-2.0, and NetBSD-2 before 20050913; and NetBSD-1.6 before 20050914; allows local users to cause a denial of service (heap corruption or system crash)…
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.34%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
