CVE-2016-20098
Moderator Toolbox (reddit-moderator-toolbox) before 4.0.14 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the removalreasons module, which inserts subreddit toolbox wiki fields into popup HTML without encoding.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.17%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
