CVE-2017-4907
VMware Unified Access Gateway (2.5.x, 2.7.x, 2.8.x prior to 2.8.1) and Horizon View (7.x prior to 7.1.0, 6.x prior to 6.2.4) contain a heap buffer-overflow vulnerability which may allow a remote attacker to execute code on the security gateway.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.76%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
