CVE-2018-5800
An off-by-one error within the "LibRaw::kodak_ycbcr_load_raw()" function (internal/dcraw_common.cpp) in LibRaw versions prior to 0.18.7 can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow and subsequently cause a crash.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.55%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
