Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.94%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

XAPI open file limit DoS It is possible for an unauthenticated client on the network to cause XAPI to hit its file-descriptor limit. This causes XAPI to be unable to accept new requests for other (trusted) clients, and blocks XAPI from carrying out any tasks that require the opening of file descriptors.
