MEDIUM 6.5EPSS 1.77%
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.77%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
The SCTP socket buffer used by a userspace application is not accounted by the cgroups subsystem. An attacker can use this flaw to cause a denial of service attack. Kernel 3.10.x and 4.18.x branches are believed to be vulnerable.
