CVE-2017-6759
A vulnerability in the UpgradeManager of the Cisco Prime Collaboration Provisioning Tool 12.1 could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to write arbitrary files as root on the system.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.54%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
