CVE-2023-50982
Stud.IP 5.x through 5.3.3 allows XSS with resultant upload of executable files, because upload_action and edit_action in Admin_SmileysController do not check the file extension.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.29%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
