CVE-2019-13241
FlightCrew v0.9.2 and older are vulnerable to a directory traversal, allowing attackers to write arbitrary files via a ../ (dot dot slash) in a ZIP archive entry that is mishandled during extraction.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.63%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
