CVE-2016-8463
A denial of service vulnerability in the Qualcomm FUSE file system could enable a remote attacker to use a specially crafted file to cause a device hang or reboot.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.23%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
