CVE-2017-12482
The ledger::parse_date_mask_routine function in times.cc in Ledger 3.1.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (stack-based buffer overflow and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted file.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.24%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
