CVE-2019-5419
There is a possible denial of service vulnerability in Action View (Rails) <5.2.2.1, <5.1.6.2, <5.0.7.2, <4.2.11.1 where specially crafted accept headers can cause action view to consume 100% cpu and make the server unresponsive.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (8.67%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
