CVE-2019-12097
Telerik Fiddler v5.0.20182.28034 doesn't verify the hash of EnableLoopback.exe before running it, which could lead to code execution or local privilege escalation by replacing the original EnableLoopback.exe.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.58%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
