CVE-2016-1356

Cisco FireSIGHT System Software 6.1.0 does not use a constant-time algorithm for verifying credentials, which makes it easier for remote attackers to enumerate valid usernames by measuring timing differences, aka Bug ID CSCuy41615.

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.83%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
