An attacker in a privileged network position may be able to execute arbitrary code on a paired device during a debug session over the network.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.99%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
