CVE-2006-3814

Status: ModifiedMedium (5.1)—💥 Exploit

Buffer overflow in the Loader_XM::load_instrument_internal function in loader_xm.cpp for Cheese Tracker 0.9.9 and earlier allows user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted file with a large amount of extra data.

CVSS

Version: 2.0
Vector: AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
Base score: 5.1

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 6.73%
Percentile among all scored CVEs: 94
Score date: 10/8/2026

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).

💥 Public exploits

Exploit code or detection templates are publicly available. This is not the same as confirmed active exploitation (KEV), but it raises the risk: patch with priority.
