CVE-2026-9365 May 24, 07:45 LOW POC PATCH Monitor

Heap-based buffer overflow in Ettercap's GG protocol dissector (versions up to 0.8.3) allows remote attackers to potentially achieve limited confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise through crafted network traffic. The vulnerability exists in the ec_gg.c dissector when processing Gadu-Gadu instant messaging protocol packets. Publicly available exploit code exists (GitHub issue #1306), and vendor has released patch version 0.8.4 (commit feeae6fa). Despite network attack vector, exploitation difficulty is high (AC:H) with low EPSS risk, suggesting specialized targeting rather than mass exploitation.
