CVE-2022-29022
A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the razeraccessory driver of OpenRazer up to version v3.3.0 allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) and possibly escalate their privileges via a crafted buffer sent to the matrix_custom_frame device.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.29%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
