CVE-2001-0959
Computer Associates ARCserve for NT 6.61 SP2a and ARCserve 2000 7.0 creates a hidden share named ARCSERVE$, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information and overwrite critical files.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.97%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
