CVE-2016-0216
Stack-based buffer overflow in IBM Tivoli Storage Manager FastBack 5.5 and 6.1.x through 6.1.11.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via unspecified vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2016-0212 and CVE-2016-0213.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.40%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
