Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.38%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

Stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in orcparse.c of ORC versions prior to 0.4.39. If a developer is tricked to process a specially crafted file with the affected ORC compiler, an arbitrary code may be executed on the developer's build environment. This may lead to compromise of developer machines or CI build environments.
