CVE-2010-5196
Untrusted search path vulnerability in KeePass Password Safe before 2.13 allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse DwmApi.dll file in the current working directory, as demonstrated by a directory that contains a .kdbx file.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.58%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
