CVE-2018-6905
The page module in TYPO3 before 8.7.11, and 9.1.0, has XSS via $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SYS']['sitename'], as demonstrated by an admin entering a crafted site name during the installation process.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.17%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
