CVE-2008-1718
Buffer overflow in mimesr.dll in Autonomy (formerly Verity) KeyView, as used in IBM Lotus Notes before 8.0, might allow user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an e-mail message with a crafted Text mail (MIME) attachment.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.31%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
