CVE-2009-1713
The XSLT functionality in WebKit in Apple Safari before 4.0 does not properly implement the document function, which allows remote attackers to read (1) arbitrary local files and (2) files from different security zones via unspecified vectors.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.05%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
