CVE-2014-5340
The wato component in Check_MK before 1.2.4p4 and 1.2.5 before 1.2.5i4 uses the pickle Python module unsafely, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted serialized object, related to an automation URL.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (6.14%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
