Improper default permissions in the firmware for the Intel(R) Ethernet I210 Controller series of network adapters before version 3.30 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable denial of service via local access.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.23%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
