CVE-2015-1108
The Lock Screen component in Apple iOS before 8.3 does not properly enforce the limit on incorrect passcode-authentication attempts, which makes it easier for physically proximate attackers to obtain access by making many passcode guesses.

Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.40%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
