CVE-2017-12879
Cross-site scripting (XSS-STORED) vulnerability in the DEVICES OR SENSORS functionality in Paessler PRTG Network Monitor before 17.3.33.2654 allows authenticated remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.13%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
