CVE-2019-12762
Xiaomi Mi 5s Plus devices allow attackers to trigger touchscreen anomalies via a radio signal between 198 kHz and 203 kHz, as demonstrated by a transmitter and antenna hidden just beneath the surface of a coffee-shop table, aka Ghost Touch.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.18%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
