CVE-2020-16235
Inadequate encryption may allow the credentials used by Emerson OpenEnterprise, up through version 3.3.5, to access field devices and external systems to be obtained.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.10%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
