CVE-2013-7284
The PlRPC module, possibly 0.2020 and earlier, for Perl uses the Storable module, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted request, which is not properly handled when it is deserialized.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.82%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
