## Issue Severity
Galaxy takes a very conservative stance on issue severity as individual Galaxy instances often install tools and make customizations that might increase their risk in the face of otherwise less-serious vulnerabilities. As a result, issues that would be considered less-severe in other projects are treated as higher risk here.
