The EPSS score is not available, and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV. The flaw can be exploited from any web client that has logged in, allowing an attacker to create additional administrator accounts and gain full control of the application. Because it only requires a valid authenticated session, the attack is trivial for users who already possess credentials or can obtain a session cookie through phishing or other methods.
