NetBSD maps the run-time link-editor ld.so directly below the stack region, even if ASLR is enabled, this allows attackers to more easily manipulate memory leading to arbitrary code execution.
Does this matter?
EPSS puts the probability of exploitation in the next 30 days at 18.9%, higher than 97% of all known CVEs. Patch or mitigate before the next change window.
