CVE-2008-5696
Novell NetWare 6.5 before Support Pack 8, when an OES2 Linux server is installed into the NDS tree, does not require a password for the ApacheAdmin console, which allows remote attackers to reconfigure the Apache HTTP Server via console operations.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.29%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
