What this means
- Exposure

- Weakness
- Unfiltered input is concatenated into a command, letting the attacker append their own.
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score puts short-term exploitation in a middle band: neither negligible nor imminent.
What to doFold into the next patch cycle. Start with the instances exposed to the internet.
