CVE-2017-15911
The Admin Console in Ignite Realtime Openfire Server before 4.1.7 allows arbitrary client-side JavaScript code execution on victims who click a crafted setup/setup-host-settings.jsp?domain= link, aka XSS.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.73%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
