CVE-2009-4014
Multiple format string vulnerabilities in Lintian 1.23.x through 1.23.28, 1.24.x through 1.24.2.1, and 2.x before 2.3.2 allow remote attackers to have an unspecified impact via vectors involving (1) check scripts and (2) the Lintian::Schedule module.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.06%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
