CVE-2023-27197
PAX A930 device with PayDroid_7.1.1_Virgo_V04.5.02_20220722 can allow an attacker to gain root access by running a crafted binary leveraging an exported function from a shared library.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.23%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
