CVE-2023-2485
A malicious maintainer in a project can escalate other users to Owners in that project if they import members from another project that those other users are Owners of.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.82%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
