CVE-2019-19270
Failure to check for the appropriate field of a CRL entry (checking twice for subject, rather than once for subject and once for issuer) prevents some valid CRLs from being taken into account, and can allow clients whose certificates have been revoked…
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.01%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
