CVE-2020-18032
Buffer Overflow in Graphviz Graph Visualization Tools from commit ID f8b9e035 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) by loading a crafted file into the "lib/common/shapes.c"…
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.61%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
