CVE-2019-10648
Robocode through 1.9.3.5 allows remote attackers to cause external service interaction (DNS), as demonstrated by a query for a unique subdomain name within an attacker-controlled DNS zone, because of a .openStream call within java.net.URL.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.25%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
