CVE-2008-2001
Apple Safari 3.1.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a file:///%E2 link that triggers an out-of-bounds access, possibly due to a NULL pointer dereference.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.94%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
