CVE-2014-4386
Race condition in the App Installation feature in Apple iOS before 8 allows local users to gain privileges and install unverified apps by leveraging /tmp write access.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.26%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
