CVE-2017-16833
Stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Gemirro before 0.16.0 allows attackers to inject arbitrary web script via a crafted javascript: URL in the "homepage" value of a ".gemspec" file.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.81%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
