FAUCET Score

CVE-2014-2977 describes multiple integer signedness errors in the Dispatch_Write function of DirectFB 1.4.13, affecting products like openSUSE and SUSE. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and potentially execute arbitrary code via the Voodoo interface, triggering a stack-based buffer overflow. With a CVSS score of 10.0 (Critical), it presents a high-risk scenario due to its network-based attack vector, low attack complexity, and complete impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Despite its critical severity, there is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion or media coverage.
