CVE-2016-2002
The validateAdminConfig handler in the Analytics Management Console in HPE Vertica 7.0.x before 7.0.2.12, 7.1.x before 7.1.2-12, and 7.2.x before 7.2.2-1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via the mcPort parameter, aka ZDI-CAN-3417.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.09%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
