CVE-2019-16925
Flower 0.9.3 has XSS via the name parameter in an @app.task call.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.82%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
Flower 0.9.3 has XSS via the name parameter in an @app.task call. NOTE: The project author stated that he doesn't think this is a valid vulnerability. Worker name and task name aren’t user facing configuration options. They are internal backend config options and person having rights to change them already has full access
