CVE-2003-0012
The data collection script for Bugzilla 2.14.x before 2.14.5, 2.16.x before 2.16.2, and 2.17.x before 2.17.3 sets world-writable permissions for the data/mining directory when it runs, which allows local users to modify or delete the data.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.29%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
