CVE-2015-3205 is a critical vulnerability affecting libmimedir, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. By crafting a malicious VCF file with specific NULL byte padding, attackers can trigger memory corruption during the lexer's cleanup, leading to arbitrary code execution. With a CVSS score of 7.5 (High), this vulnerability is easily exploitable over the network with low attack complexity, potentially resulting in complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. While not actively exploited in the wild, a proof-of-concept exploit is publicly available, and its high FAUCET Risk Score of 91/100 indicates significant potential for future exploitation.
