Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.24%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

HSC MailInspector v5.3.3-7 contains a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the /tap/tap.php endpoint due to improper neutralization of user-controlled input using alternate or obfuscated JavaScript syntax. The endpoint reflects unsanitized user input in HTTP responses without adequate output encoding, allowing a remote attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript code in the context of a victim's browser.
