Which Linux Desktop flaws are most likely to be used?
Ranked by the latest exploit-likelihood forecast: the chance each flaw is used in an attack in the next 30 days. A high severity score on its own doesn't tell you that. Flaws shared by many other makers' products are left out.
- 7.1%CVE-2006-0736Critical
Stack-based buffer overflow in the pam_micasa PAM authentication module in CASA on Novell Linux Desktop 9 and Open Enterprise Server 1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors.
- 4.9%CVE-2009-3547High
