CVE-2018-10058
The remote management interface of cgminer 4.10.0 and bfgminer 5.5.0 allows an authenticated remote attacker to execute arbitrary code due to a stack-based buffer overflow in the addpool, failover-only, poolquota, and save command handlers.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.87%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
