CVE-2001-1503
The finger daemon (in.fingerd) in Sun Solaris 2.5 through 8 and SunOS 5.5 through 5.8 allows remote attackers to list all accounts on a host by typing finger 'a b c d e f g h'@host.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.76%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
