Last modified
CVE-2003-0805 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Multiple buffer overflows in UMN gopher daemon (gopherd) 2.x and 3.x before 3.0.6 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via (1) a long filename as a result of a LIST command, and (2) the GSisText function, which calculates the view-type.. EPSS estimates a 4.84% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
