IBM Spectrum Scale V4.2.0.0 through V4.2.3.22 and V5.0.0.0 through V5.0.5 could allow a local attacker to cause a denial of service by sending a large number of RPC requests to the mmfsd daemon which would cause the service to crash.

Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.29%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
