CVE-2015-7236 is a use-after-free vulnerability in rpcbind versions 0.2.1 and earlier, specifically within the xprt_set_caller function, affecting products from vendors like Canonical, Debian, and Oracle. This flaw allows remote attackers to trigger a denial of service by sending specially crafted packets involving a PMAP_CALLIT code, leading to a daemon crash. With a CVSS v3 score of 7.5 (HIGH), it is easily exploitable over the network with low attack complexity, requiring no user interaction or privileges, and its primary impact is system availability. There is no evidence of active exploitation, nor are there known public exploits or Metasploit modules available, and it has garnered minimal community discussion or media coverage.
