Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.33%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

NOTE: this is only a vulnerability in limited scenarios in which tcptrack is "configured as a handler for other applications." This issue might not qualify for inclusion in CVE.
