CVE-2012-0736
IBM Rational AppScan Enterprise 5.x and 8.x before 8.5.0.1 does not properly create scan jobs, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted web site.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.86%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
