Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.21%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

A heap-based buffer overflow exists in rippled before 1.8.5. The vulnerability allows attackers to cause a crash or execute commands remotely on a rippled node, which may lead to XRPL mainnet DoS or compromise. This exposes all digital assets on the XRPL to a security threat.
