CVE-2010-1620
Integer overflow in the load_iface function in Tools/gdomap.c in gdomap in GNUstep Base before 1.20.0 might allow context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via a (1) file or (2) socket that provides configuration data with many entries,…
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.66%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
Integer overflow in the load_iface function in Tools/gdomap.c in gdomap in GNUstep Base before 1.20.0 might allow context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via a (1) file or (2) socket that provides configuration data with many entries, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow.
