CVE-2020-8692
Insufficient access control in the firmware of the Intel(R) Ethernet 700 Series Controllers before version 7.3 may allow a privileged user to potentially enable escalation of privilege and/or denial of service via local access.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.34%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
