CVE-2017-12602
OpenCV (Open Source Computer Vision Library) through 3.3 has a denial of service (memory consumption) issue, as demonstrated by the 10-opencv-dos-memory-exhaust test case.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.99%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
