CVE-2007-1653
GlowWorm FW before 1.5.3b4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (kernel panic) via certain DNS responses that trigger infinite recursion in TrueDNS packet parsing, as originally observed with certain login.yahoo.com responses.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.21%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
