Multiple buffer overflows in Hypermail 2 before 2.1.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code (1) via a long attachment filename that is not properly handled by the hypermail executable, or (2) by connecting to the mail CGI program from an IP address that reverse-resolves to a long hostname.

Exploit prediction (EPSS)

4.90% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 92% of all scored CVEs.
