Attackers can craft a malicious PDB file with specially crafted section names to inject r2 commands that are executed when the idp command processes the file.\n\n## Affected\n\n- `radare2 < 6.1.4`\n\n## Remediation\n\nRefer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.","depth":"midnight","depthScore":58,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":46.2,"likelihood":0.2,"exploitation":12,"ransomware":0},"changes":[]}
