Metadata Anonymisation Toolkit (MAT) 0.6 and 0.6.1 silently fails to perform "Clean metadata" actions upon invocation from the Nautilus contextual menu, which allows context-dependent attackers to obtain sensitive information by reading a file for which cleaning had been attempted.

1.80% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 79% of all scored CVEs.
