Scoring
CVSS Scores
The Common Vulnerability Scoring System is a standardized framework
for assessing the severity of vulnerabilities in software and systems.
We collect and displays CVSS scores from various sources for each CVE.
| Score | Version | Severity | Vector | Exploitability Score | Impact Score | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CVSS 3.1 | HIGH | 9a959283-ebb5-44b6-b705-dcc2bbced522 |
Solution
Apply vendor patches to address buffer overflow vulnerabilities and prevent code execution.
