When the directory containing the installer does not have sufficiently restrictive file permissions, an attacker can modify (or replace) the installer to execute malicious code.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.17%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
