CVE-2012-6119
Candlepin before 0.7.24, as used in Red Hat Subscription Asset Manager before 1.2.1, does not properly check manifest signatures, which allows local users to modify manifests.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.42%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
