CVE-2018-25253
Termite 3.4 contains a buffer overflow vulnerability in the User interface language settings field that allows local attackers to cause a denial of service by supplying an excessively long string.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.18%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
