CVE-2018-1458
IBM DB2 for Linux, UNIX and Windows (includes DB2 Connect Server) 9.7, 10,1, 10.5 and 11.1 could allow a local user to execute arbitrary code and conduct DLL hijacking attacks.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.66%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
