EchelonGraph scoreMEDIUM confidence

This medium-severity CVE scores 6.9 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.3%, top 80% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).

Streambert is a cross-platform Electron Desktop App to stream and download video content. From version 2.5.0 until version 2.6.0, the wyzie-open-redeem IPC handler in index.js creates the partition:wyzie-redeem Electron session and registers an onHeadersReceived hook that removes the Content-Security-Policy header from every response in that session. The redeem window also lacks a setWindowOpenHandler restriction, so script injection in sub.wyzie.io, a loaded third-party resource, or a site reached through navigation executes without CSP constraints and can affect additional windows and persistent session storage. A user must open the Wyzie API key redemption window, and exploitation requires attacker-controlled script content in a loaded page. The resulting renderer script can invoke renderer-exposed application functionality and can be chained with other vulnerabilities to access internal services or sensitive data. This issue is fixed in version 2.6.0.
