Multiple buffer overflows in mDNSResponder before 625.41.2 allow remote attackers to read or write to out-of-bounds memory locations via vectors involving the (1) GetValueForIPv4Addr, (2) GetValueForMACAddr, (3) rfc3110_import, or (4)…
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.51%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
