A remote authenticated malicious user with low privileges could access arbitrary files on the server file system in the context of the running vulnerable application via Path traversal.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (8.23%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
