CVE-2017-1786
IBM WebSphere MQ 8.0 through 8.0.0.8 and 9.0 through 9.0.4 under special circumstances could allow an authenticated user to consume all resources due to a memory leak resulting in service loss.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.07%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
