CVE-2015-1032
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Kiwix before 0.9.1, when using kiwix-serve, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the pattern parameter to /search.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.89%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
