CVE-2008-1997
Unspecified vulnerability in the ADMIN_SP_C2 procedure in IBM DB2 8 before FP16, 9.1 before FP4a, and 9.5 before FP1 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (4.43%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
