7.8
CVSS v3.1

Official Description

Multiple buffer overflows in Firebird 2.1 allow attackers to trigger memory corruption and possibly have other unspecified impact via certain input processed by (1) config\ConfigFile.cpp or (2) msgs\check_msgs.epp. NOTE: if ConfigFile.cpp reads a configuration file with restrictive permissions, then the ConfigFile.cpp vector may not cross privilege boundaries and perhaps should not be included in CVE.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2007-2606 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
