CVE-2017-11733
A null pointer dereference vulnerability was found in the function stackswap (called from decompileSTACKSWAP) in util/decompile.c in Ming 0.4.8, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted file.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.98%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
