CVE-2008-1979
The Discovery Service (casdscvc) in CA ARCserve Backup 12.0.5454.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a packet with a large integer value used in an increment to TCP port 41523, which triggers a buffer over-read.

Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (3.63%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
