An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by installing a crafted image. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying operating system with root privileges. \r\nNote: Administrators should validate the hash of any software image before installation."}], "lastModified": "2025-02-26T17:15:23.053", "sourceIdentifier": "[email protected]"}
