CVE-2018-15318
In BIG-IP 14.0.0-14.0.0.2, 13.1.0.4-13.1.1.1, or 12.1.3.4-12.1.3.6, If an MPTCP connection receives an abort signal while the initial flow is not the primary flow, the initial flow will remain after the closing procedure is complete.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.34%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
