The vulnerability is classified under CWE-79 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.1, reflecting a medium impact on confidentiality and integrity with no impact on availability.

Potential Impact

Successful exploitation can lead to the execution of arbitrary scripts in the context of the victim's browser, potentially resulting in information disclosure or manipulation of user interactions.
