A working public exploit is published for this, so the barrier to attack is low. FIRST EPSS estimates about a 11% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days, which is high relative to most CVEs. It is reachable over the network with no authentication and no user interaction, which is the most dangerous profile. Patch this on priority and confirm the fix holds.
