CVE-2016-5408
Stack-based buffer overflow in the munge_other_line function in cachemgr.cgi in the squid package before 3.1.23-16.el6_8.6 in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (4.35%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
