CVE-2019-5588
A reflected Cross-Site-Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Fortinet FortiOS 6.0.0 to 6.0.4 under SSL VPN web portal may allow an attacker to execute unauthorized malicious script code via the "err" parameter of the error process HTTP requests.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.83%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
