A vulnerability in the upgrade process of Cisco Spark Board could allow an authenticated, local attacker to install an unverified upgrade package, aka Signature Verification Bypass.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.19%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
