A vulnerability in the CronJob scheduler API of Cisco Digital Network Architecture (DNA) Center could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to perform a command injection attack.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (6.06%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
