Insufficient input validation in ABR allows a low-privileged user to inject malicious entries into the sudoers file, resulting in persistent root access that remained effective after the ABR session ended.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.15%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
