CVE-2017-1297
IBM DB2 for Linux, UNIX and Windows 9.2, 10.1, 10.5, and 11.1 (includes DB2 Connect Server) is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow, caused by improper bounds checking which could allow a local attacker to execute arbitrary code.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.49%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
