Buffer overflow in the sendToMythTV function in MythControlServer.c in MythControl 1.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted sendStr string to the Bluetooth interface.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (5.40%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
