CVE-2018-11499
A use-after-free vulnerability exists in handle_error() in sass_context.cpp in LibSass 3.4.x and 3.5.x through 3.5.4 that could be leveraged to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly unspecified other impact.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.84%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
