This code may indicate a catcon that is damaged, leaking, or failing in some way, or it could just be a faulty sensor. The code is generated when two sensors, one before the cat and one after don't show an improvement between the two.You said the only diag was a code read, but a full diag would include a visual inspection of the cat to check for damage or stuff rattling around inside, inspection of sensor wiring, and also comparing the output of the two sensors involved under various conditions to see if they appear to be sending reasonable results.
Its a lot cheaper to replace an O2 sensor than a catcon so unless its something obvious wrong with the cat after a full diag I would start with the sensor(s) and see what the result is.
