CVE-2017-9795
When an Apache Geode cluster before v1.3.0 is operating in secure mode, a user with read access to specific regions within a Geode cluster may execute OQL queries that allow read and write access to objects within unauthorized regions.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (4.18%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
