Last modified

CVE-2020-15101 is a low-severity vulnerability rated 3.3/10 on the CVSS scale. In freewvs before 0.1.1, a directory structure of more than 1000 nested directories can interrupt a freewvs scan due to Python's recursion limit and os.walk(). This can be problematic in a case where an administrator scans the dirs of potentially untrusted users. EPSS estimates a 0.60% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
