Notes
| Author | Note |
|---|---|
| sahnaseredini | the fix is not complete in bionic as the poc is still working. Also there's a commit in the upstream (07d526e) that is reverting some optimisations and (apparently) fixes the issue, however, it does not relate to the CVE, and looks more like a bug fix. |
