Vulnerabilities in the affected interface of AOS-8 could allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to bypass existing authentication controls and run arbitrary commands on the underlying host.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.69%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
