CVE-2016-7475
Status: ModifiedHigh (7.5)—
Under some circumstances on BIG-IP 12.0.0-12.1.0, 11.6.0-11.6.1, or 11.4.0-11.5.4 HF1, the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) may not properly clean-up pool member network connections when using SPDY or HTTP/2 virtual server profiles.
CVSS
- Version: 3.0
- Vector: CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
- Base score: 7.5
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 1.32%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 70
- Score date: 10/4/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
