CVE-2018-17143
The html package (aka x/net/html) through 2018-09-17 in Go mishandles <template><tBody><isindex/action=0>, leading to a "panic: runtime error" in inBodyIM in parse.go during an html.Parse call.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.77%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
