Stack-based buffer overflow in the ax Shared Libraries in the Agent in IBM Tivoli Monitoring (ITM) 6.2.2 before FP9, 6.2.3 before FP5, and 6.3.0 before FP2 on Linux and UNIX allows local users to gain privileges via unspecified vectors.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.41%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
