NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream chicken package and not the chicken package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:12 relevant fixed versions and status.

Buffer overflow in CHICKEN 4.9.0.x before 4.9.0.2, 4.9.x before 4.9.1, and before 5.0 allows attackers to have unspecified impact via a positive START argument to the "substring-index[-ci] procedures."
