CVE-2018-15157
The libfsclfs_block_read function in libfsclfs_block.c in libfsclfs before 2018-07-25 allows remote attackers to cause a heap-based buffer over-read via a crafted clfs file.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.46%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
