Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.19%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

An improper certificate validation vulnerability in the Prisma Access Agent® for Android and Chrome OS enables an attacker to perform a man-in-the-middle (MitM) attack to intercept VPN traffic. By presenting a certificate for any domain issued by a trusted Certificate Authority, the attacker can capture sensitive device information. The Prisma Access Agent on macOS, Windows, Linux and iOS are not affected.
