CVE-2019-19063
Two memory leaks in the rtl_usb_probe() function in drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi/usb.c in the Linux kernel through 5.3.11 allow attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption), aka CID-3f9361695113.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.90%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
