CVE-2009-0363
Multiple buffer overflows in (a) BarnOwl before 1.0.5 and (b) owl 2.1.11 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via vectors involving (1) a crafted zcrypt message, related to zcrypt.c; (2) a reply command on a message with a Zephyr Cc: list,…
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.38%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
