Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.90%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

This is only present when websocket authentication is set to `cookie`. Submitting an invalid cookie on the websocket upgrade request will cause the node process to error out.
