An attacker can gain access to locally stored user data more easily by leveraging access to the preferences XML file.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.41%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
