It's not recommended to eat cheese that has been left out in the fridge with an incorrect temperature for an extended period of time. Even though the cheese was vacuum-sealed, it's still possible for bacteria to grow on it which could make you sick. The pungent smell is an indication that the cheese has likely gone bad. It's best to err on the side of caution and discard the cheese to avoid any potential health risks. For future reference, make sure to store cheese in a properly sealed container within the refrigerator, and follow the storage guidelines provided on the packaging.
