CVE-2017-3842
A vulnerability in the web-based management interface of the Cisco Intrusion Prevention System Device Manager (IDM) could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to view sensitive information stored in certain HTML comments.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.32%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
