Focus on fossies vulnerabilities and metrics.
Last updated: 08 Mar 2026, 23:25 UTC
This page consolidates all known Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) associated with fossies. We track both calendar-based metrics (using fixed periods) and rolling metrics (using gliding windows) to give you a comprehensive view of security trends and risk evolution. Use these insights to assess risk and plan your patching strategy.
For a broader perspective on cybersecurity threats, explore the comprehensive list of CVEs by vendor and product. Stay updated on critical vulnerabilities affecting major software and hardware providers.
Total fossies CVEs: 6
Earliest CVE date: 08 Jul 2017, 17:29 UTC
Latest CVE date: 02 Jun 2025, 15:15 UTC
Latest CVE reference: CVE-2024-54028
30-day Count (Rolling): 0
365-day Count (Rolling): 2
Calendar-based Variation
Calendar-based Variation compares a fixed calendar period (e.g., this month versus the same month last year), while Rolling Growth Rate uses a continuous window (e.g., last 30 days versus the previous 30 days) to capture trends independent of calendar boundaries.
Month Variation (Calendar): 0%
Year Variation (Calendar): 0%
Month Growth Rate (30-day Rolling): 0.0%
Year Growth Rate (365-day Rolling): 0.0%
Average CVSS: 1.13
Max CVSS: 6.8
Critical CVEs (≥9): 0
| Range | Count |
|---|---|
| 0.0-3.9 | 5 |
| 4.0-6.9 | 1 |
| 7.0-8.9 | 0 |
| 9.0-10.0 | 0 |
These are the five CVEs with the highest CVSS scores for fossies, sorted by severity first and recency.
An integer underflow vulnerability exists in the OLE Document DIFAT Parser functionality of catdoc 0.95. A specially crafted malformed file can lead to heap-based memory corruption. An attacker can provide a malicious file to trigger this vulnerability.
An integer overflow vulnerability exists in the OLE Document File Allocation Table Parser functionality of catdoc 0.95. A specially crafted malformed file can lead to heap-based memory corruption. An attacker can provide a malicious file to trigger this vulnerability.
Catdoc v0.95 was discovered to contain a NULL pointer dereference via the component xls2csv at src/xlsparse.c.
Catdoc v0.95 was discovered to contain a NULL pointer dereference via the component xls2csv at src/fileutil.c.
Catdoc v0.95 was discovered to contain a global buffer overflow via the function process_file at /src/reader.c.
The ole_init function in ole.c in catdoc 0.95 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer underflow and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted file, i.e., data is written to memory addresses before the beginning of the tmpBuf buffer.
