An attacker needs a low-privileged account, as reflected by the PR:L attack-vector metric. The attack can be performed remotely and does not require user interaction.

2

Are deployments running the affected releases exposed by default?

3

How urgent is remediation?

The issue is rated medium severity with a CVSS score of 6.3, but a public exploit is available and the report states that no vendor response has been received. Prioritize affected internet-accessible deployments and review access to the Ajax upload handler.

Is a fix or workaround documented?
