      Hi Team,
      We discover that the WebP Codec's heap buffer overflow vulnerability (CVE-2023-4863) is currently being extensively exploited in the wild. Here, I would require a confirmation from your end as to whether or not this vulnerability affects our pfsense?

        Isn't that specifically against Google Chrome/Chromium browser?

          Yes, that's a vulnerability in Chrome and other Chrome-based browsers. Completely unrealted to pfSense.

          Unless you've somehow installed Chrome in pfSense but I can't begin to imagine what that would require. Or why you would do it! 😉
