CVE-2026-73740
A local privilege escalation vulnerability in HPE Networking Fabric Composer could allow an authenticated privileged user on the underlying host to elevate their user privileges to those of a higher role.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.14%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
