CVE-2017-8040
In Single Sign-On for Pivotal Cloud Foundry (PCF) 1.3.x versions prior to 1.3.4 and 1.4.x versions prior to 1.4.3, an XXE (XML External Entity) attack was discovered in the Single Sign-On service dashboard.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.07%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
