CVE-2005-2297 describes a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability in Sybase EAServer versions 4.2.5 through 5.2, specifically within the TreeAction.do component. This flaw allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code by supplying an overly large 'javascript' parameter. While the CVSS score is 4.6, indicating a lower severity, its FAUCET Risk Score of 98/100 and EPSS percentile of 0.715290000 suggest a higher practical risk. Although not listed in CISA's KEV catalog, a Metasploit module exists for this vulnerability, demonstrating readily available exploit code, yet there is no evidence of active exploitation or significant community discussion.
