CVE-2019-7323
GUP (generic update process) in LightySoft LogMX before 7.4.0 does not properly verify the authenticity of updates, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to execute arbitrary code via a Trojan horse update.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.08%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
