Clustered Data ONTAP versions 9.7 through 9.7P7 are susceptible to a vulnerability which allows an attacker with access to an intercluster LIF to cause a Denial of Service (DoS).
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.29%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
