CVE-2017-11402
Design flaws in OPC classic and in custom netfilter modules allow an attacker to remotely activate rules on the firewall and to connect to any TCP port of a protected asset, thus bypassing the firewall.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.54%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
