CVE-2016-10166
Integer underflow in the _gdContributionsAlloc function in gd_interpolation.c in the GD Graphics Library (aka libgd) before 2.2.4 allows remote attackers to have unspecified impact via vectors related to decrementing the u variable.
Does this matter?
EPSS puts the probability of exploitation in the next 30 days at 10.7%, higher than 96% of all known CVEs. Patch or mitigate before the next change window.
