CVE-2018-7688
A missing permission check in the review handling of openSUSE Open Build Service before 2.9.3 allowed all authenticated users to modify sources in projects where they do not have write permissions.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.10%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
