CVE-2018-11298
This may lead to buffer overflow as strlen is used to get realm string length to construct the PASSPOINT WMA command.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.20%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
