CVE-2016-8999
IBM InfoSphere Information Server contains a Path-relative stylesheet import vulnerability that allows attackers to render a page in quirks mode thereby facilitating an attacker to inject malicious CSS.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.72%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
