Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.79%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
The CICS listener in IBM TXSeries for Multiplatforms 6.2 GA waits for a forcepurge acknowledgement from the CICS Application Server (CICSAS) after an eci response timeout, which might allow remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (forcepurge handling delay), or have unspecified other impact, via vectors involving slow or nonexistent acknowledgement.
