CVE-2017-5041
Google Chrome prior to 57.0.2987.100 incorrectly handled back-forward navigation, which allowed a remote attacker to display incorrect information for a site via a crafted HTML page.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.19%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
