CVE-2015-6737
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Widgets extension for MediaWiki allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via vectors involving base64 encoded content.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.01%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
