How to be safe against CVE-2019-8912?
I'm new to Linux and Debian. I've read in news that there is a new Kernel bug
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2019-8912
Is it safe to use my PC until it gets fixed ? Can someone use this exploit to steal my paypal account, my money and other accounts ?
Is there a way to be safe against this type of exploit ?
