CVE-2017-7799
Data on this page is supplied by WebRTC usage and is not under third-party control, making this difficult to exploit, but the vulnerability could possibly be used for a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.38%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
