CVE-2017-17059
XSS exists in the amtyThumb amty-thumb-recent-post (aka amtyThumb posts or wp-thumb-post) plugin 8.1.3 for WordPress via the query string to amtyThumbPostsAdminPg.php.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (3.42%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
