Buffer overflow vulnerabilities in the affected interface of AOS-10 or AOS-8 could allow an unauthenticated adjacent attacker to execute arbitrary code by sending specially crafted data to the affected interface.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.26%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
