CVE-2018-5810
An error within the "rollei_load_raw()" function (internal/dcraw_common.cpp) in LibRaw versions prior to 0.18.9 can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow and subsequently cause a crash.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.10%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
