Cgminer is a GPU and ASIC mining application with a narrow, specialized footprint centered on a single product line; its observed vulnerabilities cluster around input-handling and memory-safety weaknesses including improper input validation, path traversal, and out-of-bounds write conditions. These classes reflect the parsing demands of configuration and protocol handling in resource-intensive mining software. Current severity, exploitation, and exposure counts are shown alongside this summary.
