CVE-2023-50570

Status: ModifiedMedium (5.5)—

An issue in the component IPAddressBitsDivision of IPAddress v5.1.0 leads to an infinite loop. This is disputed because an infinite loop occurs only for cases in which the developer supplies invalid arguments. The product is not intended to always halt for contrived inputs.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

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).
