CVE-2018-5815
An integer overflow error within the "parse_qt()" function (internal/dcraw_common.cpp) in LibRaw versions prior to 0.18.12 can be exploited to trigger an infinite loop via a specially crafted Apple QuickTime file.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.21%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
