CVE-2008-5661
The IPv4 Forwarding feature in Sun Solaris 10 and OpenSolaris snv_47 through snv_82, with certain patches installed, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) via unknown vectors that trigger a NULL pointer dereference.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.16%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
