CVE-2021-3639
This issue could be used by an attacker to facilitate phishing attacks by tricking users into visiting a trusted web application URL that redirects to an external and potentially malicious server.

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.97%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
