Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.40%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

Paperclip before 0.3.1 in default local_trusted mode fails to validate Host headers, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary commands via DNS rebinding. An attacker can craft a malicious webpage that, when visited by a developer running Paperclip locally, uses DNS rebinding to make authenticated API requests and execute commands through the process adapter.
