CVE-2007-2375
The agent remote upgrade interface in Symantec Enterprise Security Manager (ESM) before 20070405 does not verify the authenticity of upgrades, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via software that implements the agent upgrade protocol.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (5.43%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
