  1. HighCVSS 7.5 EPSS 1.8%

    procps-ng before version 3.3.15 is vulnerable to a stack buffer overflow in pgrep. This vulnerability is mitigated by FORTIFY, as it involves strncat() to a stack-allocated string. When pgrep is compiled with FORTIFY (as on Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Fedora), the impact is limi...

  2. HighCVSS 7.0 EPSS 1.2% Public exploit

    procps-ng before version 3.3.15 is vulnerable to a local privilege escalation in top. If a user runs top with HOME unset in an attacker-controlled directory, the attacker could achieve privilege escalation by exploiting one of several vulnerabilities in the config_file() function...

  3. HighCVSS 7.5 EPSS 8.7% Public exploit
