CVE-2008-6170
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Drupal 5.x before 5.12 and 6.x before 6.6 allows remote authenticated users with create book content or edit node book hierarchy permissions to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the book page title.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.59%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
