Remediation

Red Hat statement

Red Hat has determined this vulnerability to be of moderate impact as the memory leak occurs when cmdline parsing fails and causes the process to terminate right away without releasing the memory, leading to the leak. It would take repeated invocations to exhaust system memory and potentially cause service degradation over time.
