CVE-2019-14534
In VideoLAN VLC media player 3.0.7.1, there is a NULL pointer dereference at the function SeekPercent of demux/asf/asf.c that will lead to a denial of service attack.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.40%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
