A successful exploit allows attackers to bypass security measures intended to keep these photos private. While the CVSS score is 5.3, indicating a medium severity, users should update immediately. The SVRS score of 57 highlights a moderate risk, suggesting the vulnerability may be actively exploited or has a higher potential for exploitation than the CVSS score alone indicates.
