CVE-2023-37915
OpenDDS crashes while parsing a malformed `PID_PROPERTY_LIST` in a DATA submessage during participant discovery.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.90%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
