CVE-2011-2461
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Adobe Flex SDK 3.x and 4.x before 4.6 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via vectors related to the loading of modules from different domains.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (7.69%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
