CVE-2017-17089
custom/run.cgi in Webmin before 1.870 allows remote authenticated administrators to conduct XSS attacks via the description field in the custom command functionality.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.84%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
