CVE-2007-5857
Quick Look in Apple Mac OS X 10.5.1 does not prevent a movie from accessing URLs when the movie file is previewed or if an icon is created, which might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via HREFTrack.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.85%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
