Threat Intelligence
The probability is the direct output of the EPSS model, and conveys an overall sense of the threat of exploitation in the wild. The percentile measures the EPSS probability relative to all known EPSS scores. Note: This data is updated daily, relying on the latest available EPSS model version. Check out the EPSS documentation for more details.

Upgrade RHEL:8 python27:2.7/python2-docutils to version 0:0.14-12.module+el8.1.0+3111+de3f2d8e or higher.
This issue was patched in RHSA-2019:3335.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python27:2.7/python2-docutils package and not the python27:2.7/python2-docutils package as distributed by RHEL.
See How to fix? for RHEL:8 relevant fixed versions and status.
An issue was discovered in NumPy 1.16.0 and earlier. It uses the pickle Python module unsafely, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted serialized object, as demonstrated by a numpy.load call. NOTE: third parties dispute this issue because it is a behavior that might have legitimate applications in (for example) loading serialized Python object arrays from trusted and authenticated sources
