CVE-2019-14924
By leveraging this vulnerability, an adversary can make an inaccessible file be available (the credential of the app, for instance).
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.03%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
