CVE-2012-3051
Cisco NX-OS 5.2 and 6.1 on Nexus 7000 series switches allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (process crash or packet loss) via a large number of ARP packets, aka Bug ID CSCtr44822.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.69%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
