HIGH 7.5EPSS 10.3%

Does this matter?

EPSS puts the probability of exploitation in the next 30 days at 10.3%, higher than 96% of all known CVEs. Patch or mitigate before the next change window.

Description

Multiple buffer overflows in the (1) png_set_PLTE and (2) png_get_PLTE functions in libpng before 1.0.64, 1.1.x and 1.2.x before 1.2.54, 1.3.x and 1.4.x before 1.4.17, 1.5.x before 1.5.24, and 1.6.x before 1.6.19 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a small bit-depth value in an IHDR (aka image header) chunk in a PNG image.
