CVE-2016-9209
A vulnerability in TCP processing in Cisco FirePOWER system software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to download files that would normally be blocked.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.18%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
