Created nextcloud tracking bugs for this issue:

Affects: fedora-all [bug 1905952]

Comment 2 Christopher Engelhard 2020-12-09 12:02:12 UTC
This bug notes that this CVE affects 19.0.0 and is fixed in 19.0.1. It is not quite clear to me why this an bug 1905952 were opened when the repos have 19.0.5? This (and other) CVEs were fixed by the update to 19.0.3 a couple of months ago.
