CVE-2017-5163
After an administrator downloads a configuration file, a copy of the configuration file, which includes hashes of user passwords, is saved to a location that is accessible without authentication by path traversal.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.90%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
