CVE-2017-15517
AltaVault OST Plug-in versions prior to 1.2.2 may allow attackers to obtain sensitive information via unspecified vectors.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.37%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
AltaVault OST Plug-in versions prior to 1.2.2 may allow attackers to obtain sensitive information via unspecified vectors. All users are urged to move to a fixed version and change passwords used by Veritas NetBackup to access the OST shares on the NetApp AltaVault as a precaution.
