CVE-2020-21682
A global buffer overflow in the set_fill component in genge.c of fig2dev 3.2.7b allows attackers to cause a denial of service (DOS) via converting a xfig file into ge format.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.85%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
