CVE-2007-0235: Libgtop

Low severity, CVSS 3.7. EPSS: 0.9% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the glibtop_get_proc_map_s function in libgtop before 2.14.6 (libgtop2) allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a process with a long filename that is mapped in its address space, which triggers the overflow in gnome-system-monitor.

Affected products

  • Libgtop Libgtop: up to and including 2.14.5
