CVE-2018-16202
Directory traversal vulnerability in cordova-plugin-ionic-webview versions prior to 2.2.0 (not including 2.0.0-beta.0, 2.0.0-beta.1, 2.0.0-beta.2, and 2.1.0-0) allows remote attackers to access arbitrary files via unspecified vectors.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.31%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
