CVE-2019-19479
An issue was discovered in OpenSC through 0.19.0 and 0.20.x through 0.20.0-rc3. libopensc/card-setcos.c has an incorrect read operation during parsing of a SETCOS file attribute.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.40%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
