This attack appears to be exploitable via a victim visiting a webpage hosting malicious content that trigger such behavior.","published":"2018-03-13T15:29:02.000Z","lastModified":"2026-06-17T01:32:25.000Z","status":"Modified","sourceIdentifier":"cve@mitre.org","cvss":{"version":"3.0","score":8.8,"severity":"HIGH","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"cwe":["CWE-352"],"affected":["cryptonote/cryptonote"],"epss":{"score":0.0171,"percentile":0.7723,"date":"2026-10-27","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"high","text":"High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.71%).
