CVE-2008-5689
tun in IP Tunnel in Solaris 10 and OpenSolaris snv_01 through snv_76 allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted SIOCGTUNPARAM IOCTL request, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.25%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
