Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (4.54%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

In Real Player 20.0.7.309 and 20.0.8.310, external::Import() allows download of arbitrary file types and Directory Traversal, leading to Remote Code Execution. This occurs because it is possible to plant executables in the startup folder (DLL planting could also occur).
