CVE-2018-6051
XSS Auditor in Google Chrome prior to 64.0.3282.119, did not ensure the reporting URL was in the same origin as the page it was on, which allowed a remote attacker to obtain referrer details via a crafted HTML page.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.27%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
