CVE-2018-19793
jiacrontab 1.4.5 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via the crontab/task/edit?addr=localhost%3a20001 command and args parameters, as demonstrated by command=cat&args=/etc/passwd in the POST data.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.37%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
