CVE-2016-0797
Multiple integer overflows in OpenSSL 1.0.1 before 1.0.1s and 1.0.2 before 1.0.2g allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap memory corruption or NULL pointer dereference) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a long digit string…
Does this matter?
EPSS puts the probability of exploitation in the next 30 days at 27.0%, higher than 98% of all known CVEs. Patch or mitigate before the next change window.
Description
