CVE-2019-19069
A memory leak in the fastrpc_dma_buf_attach() function in drivers/misc/fastrpc.c in the Linux kernel before 5.3.9 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering dma_get_sgtable() failures, aka CID-fc739a058d99.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.42%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
