CVE-2022-36998
An attacker with authenticated access to a NetBackup Client could remotely trigger a stack-based buffer overflow on the NetBackup Primary server, resulting in a denial of service.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.64%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
