CVE-2020-24614
Fossil before 2.10.2, 2.11.x before 2.11.2, and 2.12.x before 2.12.1 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.12%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
