A fix is referenced (a reference tagged "Patch", often a source commit), but no release containing it is confirmed — find the release that contains it; until it is applied, mitigate (WAF / firewall / segmentation).

Buffer overflow in CoreAudio in Apple Mac OS X 10.5.8 and 10.6.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted MP4 audio file.

EG Risk is EchelonGraph's 0–100 priority score: it fuses intrinsic severity with real-world exploitation and automatability so you can rank equal-severity CVEs and fix the most dangerous first. Higher = act sooner. Distinct from the 0–10 EG Score (severity).

Action: A fix is referenced, but no release containing it is confirmed. Check the referenced fix and the vendor's advisory for a release that contains it and apply that within your standard update timelines; until then, restrict network exposure of the affected system or apply the vendor's mitigation.

Exploitation none (CISA Vulnrichment) · Automatable no (CISA Vulnrichment) · Technical impact total (CISA Vulnrichment). All three are CISA's SSVC values (Vulnrichment). EchelonGraph applied CISA's decision table to them; CISA publishes SSVC inputs and the table, not a decision for each CVE. Mission impact is CISA's Mission & Well-being decision point, and only you can judge it. CISA's table makes it high when Mission Prevalence is Essential — the vulnerable component "directly provides capabilities that constitute at least one MEF for at least one entity" (MEF: mission essential function) — or when Public Well-Being Impact is Irreversible: "multiple fatalities are likely", the cyber-physical system "is likely lost or destroyed", "extreme or serious externalities" are imposed on other parties, or social systems such as elections or the financial grid "are destabilized and potentially collapse".

Data Freshness Timeline

(refreshed 8× in last 7d / 19× in last 30d)

Each row is a time one of our pipelines fetched, updated or re-scored this CVE. For example, "NVD update" means NVD published or revised its analysis for this CVE; "MITRE cvelistV5" means we ingested or refreshed it from the CNA feed. An arrow marks a change the record states ("CVSS v3 → 9.1"); EPSS and GHSA rows show the values recorded at that time, not what changed (EPSS values are rounded; hover one for the exact figures). Most recent first.

Showing the most recent 84 of 120 refreshes on record for this CVE.

A repeat, a row identical to one the same pipeline wrote less than 10 seconds earlier, is not a separate refresh and is not counted. 16 repeat rows among the latest 100 are merged into the row they repeat. The 36 oldest rows on record are not shown and were not checked, so the counts can still include repeats.

Frequently asked(5)

What is CVE-2010-0036?
CVE-2010-0036 is a high-severity vulnerability; its CVE record was published on January 20, 2010. Buffer overflow in CoreAudio in Apple Mac OS X 10.5.8 and 10.6.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted MP4 audio file.
When was CVE-2010-0036 made public?
CVE-2010-0036 was made public on January 19, 2010: that is the date its CVE record's CNA, Apple Inc., gives for when the vulnerability was made public. The CVE record itself was published on January 20, 2010. EchelonGraph's copy of the record carries a last-modified date of April 23, 2026; the record at its source may have been updated since.
Is CVE-2010-0036 actively exploited?
CVE-2010-0036 is not currently on CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. FIRST EPSS estimates a 3.8% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days (89th percentile of EPSS-scored CVEs).
What is the CVSS score of CVE-2010-0036?
CVE-2010-0036 has a CVSS v3 base score of 7.8 (NVD).
How do I remediate CVE-2010-0036?
A fix for CVE-2010-0036 is referenced (a reference tagged "Patch", often a source commit), but EchelonGraph has no release containing it on record. Check that reference and the vendor's advisory for a release that contains the fix and update to it; until then, restrict network exposure of the affected system or apply the vendor's mitigation.
