CVE-2017-6921
A site is only affected by this if the site has the RESTful Web Services (rest) module enabled, the file REST resource is enabled and allows PATCH requests, and an attacker can get or register a user account on the site with permissions to upload files…
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.83%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
