CVE-2017-20230
Storable versions before 3.05 for Perl has a stack overflow.
The retrieve_hook function stored the length of the class name into a signed integer but in read operations treated the length as unsigned. This allowed an attacker to craft data that could trigger the overflow.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 10
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.64%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 49
- Fecha de la puntuación: 6/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
