CVE-2008-7037
The Sidebar gadget in ITN News Gadget (aka ITN Hub Gadget) 1.06 for Windows Vista, and possibly other versions before 1.23, allows remote web servers or man-in-the-middle attackers to execute arbitrary commands via script in a short_title response.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.45%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
