CVE-2022-36060
Events sent with special strings in key places can temporarily disrupt or impede the matrix-react-sdk from functioning properly, such as by causing room or event tile crashes.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.91%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
