CVE-2008-0040
Unspecified vulnerability in NFS in Apple Mac OS X 10.5 through 10.5.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system shutdown) or execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors related to mbuf chains that trigger memory corruption.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (7.11%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
