Buffer overflow in SAPLPD 6.28 and earlier included in SAP GUI 7.10 and SAPSprint before 1018 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via long arguments to the (1) 0x01, (2) 0x02, (3) 0x03, (4) 0x04, and (5) 0x05 LPD commands.
CVE-2008-0621
Score elevated to 9.0 because EPSS predicts 88% probability of exploitation within the next 30 days (top 0.5% of all CVEs). Confidence: see factors.
- High exploitation likelihood — EPSS 73%
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
