CVE-2016-9197
A vulnerability in the CLI command parser of the Cisco Mobility Express 2800 and 3800 Series Wireless LAN Controllers could allow an authenticated, local attacker to obtain access to the underlying operating system shell with root-level privileges.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.33%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
