CVE-2007-6437

Balabit syslog-ng 2.0.x before 2.0.6 and 2.1.x before 2.1.8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a message with a timestamp that does not contain a trailing space, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference.

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (3.35%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
