Exploit code has been published publicly. The vendor was contacted but did not respond, and no patch or official fix is currently documented.

Potential Impact

The vulnerability allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a null pointer dereference in the SPF Parser component of OpenDMARC. There is no impact on confidentiality or integrity reported. The exploitability is remote with low attack complexity and no privileges or user interaction required.

Mitigation Recommendations
