Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.14%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

Attackers can craft a malicious cross-site POST request to execute arbitrary Nagios commands as a currently authenticated user without their knowledge or consent.
