CVE-2019-13050
Retrieving data from this network may cause a persistent denial of service, because of a Certificate Spamming Attack.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.66%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
Interaction between the sks-keyserver code through 1.2.0 of the SKS keyserver network, and GnuPG through 2.2.16, makes it risky to have a GnuPG keyserver configuration line referring to a host on the SKS keyserver network. Retrieving data from this network may cause a persistent denial of service, because of a Certificate Spamming Attack.
