HIGH 7.5EPSS 1.25%

Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.25%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

The endCoinFlip function and throwSlammer function of the smart contract implementations for Cryptogs, an Ethereum game, generate random numbers with an old block's hash. Therefore, attackers can predict the random number and always win the game.
