CVE-1999-1086
Novell 5 and earlier, when running over IPX with a packet signature level less than 3, allows remote attackers to gain administrator privileges by spoofing the MAC address in IPC fragmented packets that make NetWare Core Protocol (NCP) calls.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.62%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
