CVE-2016-9250
In F5 BIG-IP 11.2.1, 11.4.0 through 11.6.1, and 12.0.0 through 12.1.2, an unauthenticated user with access to the control plane may be able to delete arbitrary files through an undisclosed mechanism.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.90%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
