Untrusted search path vulnerability in HTTrack 3.43-9 allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse httrack-plugin.dll file in the current working directory, as demonstrated by a directory that contains a .whtt file.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.41%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
