CVE-2019-11547
It has Improper Encoding or Escaping of Output.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.14%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
An issue was discovered in GitLab Community and Enterprise Edition before 11.8.9, 11.9.x before 11.9.10, and 11.10.x before 11.10.2. It has Improper Encoding or Escaping of Output. The branch name on new merge request notification emails isn't escaped, which could potentially lead to XSS issues.
