MEDIUM 5.4EPSS 0.65%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.65%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

Opengear console server firmware releases prior to 4.5.0 have a stored XSS vulnerability related to serial port logging. If a malicious user of an external system (connected to a serial port on an Opengear console server) sends crafted text to a serial port (that has logging enabled), the text will be replayed when the logs are viewed. Exploiting this vulnerability requires access to the serial port and/or console server.
