CVE-2017-6719
A vulnerability in the CLI of Cisco IOS XR Software could allow an authenticated, local attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the host operating system with root privileges, aka Command Injection.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.71%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
