- SSVC decision
- ExploitationnoneCISA recorded no public exploit code and no evidence of exploitation.
- AutomatableyesAn attacker can reliably automate reconnaissance through exploitation, so this scales.
- Technical ImpactpartialSuccessful exploitation gives limited control of the vulnerable component.
- EPSS probability
- 0.42% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days.
- EPSS percentile
- Equal to or higher than the score of 36.7% of scored records. A rank, not a probability.
- NVD base score
- 7.5 (CVSS v3.x), scored by the NVD independently of the CNA.
- NVD CVSS vector

07 Remediation
Upgrade to hMailServer 6.3.6, which removes a MIME parameter and deletes header fields in a single pass and searches an encoded word's terminator only for a decodable word. Until then: lower the maximum message size (which bounds the quadratic paths but not the non-terminating one), and restart the service to end a hung thread.
