Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.48%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

A high-privileged remote attacker can upload malicious ZIP archive containing directory traversal sequences such as ../ can escape the intended extraction directory and write files to arbitrary locations on the server, potentially achieve arbitrary code execution due to improper validation of archive entry paths before writing files to disk which could result in full system compromise.
