CVE-2020-4591
IBM Spectrum Protect Server 8.1.0.000 through 8.1.10.000 could disclose sensitive information in nondefault settings due to occasionally not encrypting the second chunk of an object in an encrypted container pool.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.20%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
