CVE-2017-2314
Receipt of a malformed BGP OPEN message may cause the routing protocol daemon (rpd) process to crash and restart.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.30%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
