CVE-2008-2230
Untrusted search path vulnerability in (1) reportbug 3.8 and 3.31, and (2) reportbug-ng before 0.2008.06.04, allows local users to execute arbitrary code via a malicious module file in the current working directory.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.53%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
