Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).

Our severity reasoning: Rubric level 3 covers risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported: the source states an unauthorised individual could affect system availability or manipulate medical imaging data, and no injuries are stated.
