CVE-2018-19839
In LibSass prior to 3.5.5, the function handle_error in sass_context.cpp allows attackers to cause a denial-of-service resulting from a heap-based buffer over-read via a crafted sass file.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.16%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
