CVE-2010-0412
stap-server in SystemTap 1.1 does not properly restrict the value of the -B (aka BUILD) option, which allows attackers to have an unspecified impact via vectors associated with executing the make program, a different vulnerability than CVE-2009-4273.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.69%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
